    This was the worst tour I have ever taken. Firstly, the hotels were lucky to be a 1 or 2 star., I had to ask for towels and toilet paper in most of them. The tour guides struggled to speak English so they were pointless.. I was hoping to join a tour group, but only to find I was driven around souther india with a driver my myself for the full time.. To say I feel ripped off it an understatement!!

    Hello, The destinations were wonderful. It was good that there were tour guides in the cities. Our driver and the vehicle were particularly excellent. The hotels were good, as were the rooms. The only thing we didn't always like was the location, often outside the city or on main roads. So it was no longer possible to get to the sea or the old town in the evening or the journey times were very long. We were happy to have booked the trip.

    Overall, we were very pleased with this tour. It provided a fine introduction to south India , showing us a wide vareity of landscapes and historical sites. The driver, Loukesh, was excellent. Throughout there was a problem with the poor quality of spoken English, in particular on the part of the local tourist guides. Most of the hotels were adequate but in two cases we found them uinsatisfactory. (Details can be provided.)
