My guide Pankaj was very knowledgeable and friendly. This tour is a good option to see and learn about various Ashrams in Rishikesh.
Right after booking i sent an email to the operator ( apparently when you book on Viator they advertise an operator, not a guide so there are two middlemen before the guide) I wanted to make sure that I will be picked up and dropped off from my hotel which was 5 km from the center of Rishikesh. They didn't respond for days and I reserved another tour through a different website thinking that I didn't reserve this toursince i didn't receive a definite response. The provider took his time to respond which I felt was not the best practice .
We booked this tour for our foreign clients and they absolutely loved this. As they were not much aware about Hindu traditions and ashrams it was completely unique experience for them to learn about Hindu culture and ashrams etc. Although there are many temples in Agra Jaipur Delhi also but often tourists are not able to experience hindu culture deeply like here. Highly advised to boom this experience specially if you are new to India.
We were a group of 4 friends. Sunny, the guide, was great with his knowledge and friendly approach. We had a wonderful time. Felt like we saw places we wouldnt see without him.
I came Uttrakhand to visit Rishikesh Mussoorie Dehradun. We had a great and memorable trip. All the the services hotel ashram food was fabulous. Thank you Aashish Ji & team to make our trip so Good.
This is the second time I have booked a holiday package (honeymoon) with India easy trip and once again, it was an incredible experience. We visited Nainital. Jim Corbett. and Rishikesh. The accommodations at all the destinations were excellent, and the drivers provided were professional and reliable. Thank you so much, Ashish for making this trip so memorable
We took a walking tour through the vibrant streets of Rishikesh on a sunny afternoon, and it was nothing short of magical. Our amazing guide Sunny led us through narrow lanes filled with colorful shops, sacred temples, and peaceful ashrams. We strolled along the Ganges River, watching pilgrims bathe in the holy waters and monkeys play on the ghats. The sun lit up the hills around us, making the whole town shimmer with energy. With every step, we felt the spiritual vibe of this sacred city. It was a perfect mix of nature, culture, and peace—an unforgettable experience.
Had an amazing Haridwar Rishikesh tour for my family. I had really a good experience with driver ashok. Hotels were really perfect. Special thanks to Shivani make our tour so comfortable.
My recent trip to Rishikesh with Trip Advisor was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, everything was well-organized and seamless. The team ensured a hassle-free experience, allowing us to soak in the spiritual and adventurous vibes of this beautiful destination.
The support was extremely good. The hotel rooms were top notch even for 3 star. And the itinerary was packed. They provided us with a driver who was polite and stopped at specific places for us to click pictures and was extremely cooperative. Overall a good experience with India Easy Trip.
