Unforgettable trip to India
The tour itinerary was a great blend of sightseeing, history and nature. There is no one I’d rather have maneuver the chaotic streets of India than my driver Shiv! He was also very thoughtful getting me sweets to try and taking photos during the Golden Triangle and Ranthambore national park portions. All of the local guides were very knowledgeable, and it was a plus that half of them were women! When unforeseen circumstances stopped us from seeing the Golden Temple, the Varanasi crew was able to make it up the following morning before my departure. The three-star hotels were comfortable and the food was superb, though I did miss having warm water for showers! The communication throughout from drivers, Sonia the founder, and guides made this solo traveler feel safe. I highly recommend this tour and have been telling my friends and family as much.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt experience. I am delighted to know that the itinerary offered you the perfect blend of sightseeing, history, and nature, and that you felt safe and well cared for throughout your journey.
Your kind words about Mr. Shiv mean so much — his skill in navigating India’s busy streets, his thoughtfulness in sharing sweets and taking photos, and his warm personality truly embody the care we want every guest to feel. I am equally proud of our knowledgeable guides, and I am glad you appreciated the presence of women among them, as inclusivity is something I value deeply.
I am pleased that unforeseen circumstances were handled smoothly, allowing you to still experience the Golden Temple before your departure. It brings me joy to know that the hotels, food, and communication from our team made your solo travels reassuring and memorable.
Your recommendation inspires me greatly, and I am grateful you entrusted Joyful Holidays with your journey through India.
With gratitude,
Sonia Handa
Excellent tour
We had a fantastic tour of the golden triangle, driven expertly by Dev. He looked after us very well on the long drives, with stops as we needed. We had a separate guide in Delhi, Agra and Jaipur who were all very knowledgeable and made our trips to each destination very memorable. We were also able to adapt the schedule so that we could fit in seeing the Holi Festival. We were unfortunately ill so unable to complete the Varanasi part at the end - so we will have to go back again soon! We were well supported by Sonia during the lead up and throughout the tour. Thanks for such a great service, would highly recommend.

Perfect way to discover the north of India while traveling alone as a woman
As a blond girl, I didn’t know what to expect traveling alone in India. Thanks to the support of the drivers & local guides - I felt safe, supported, carried & welcomed at every place. For sure ask Mr Ajay as your driver and talk about the Indian culture - I learned a lot from him by driving together for hours. I also would like to thank Mr Dj in Varanasi for opening up my mind in stead of telling me history stories only. Thanks to everyone I could feel like a queen 🤣🙏🏻.
Last but not least, the cute Sonia checked on me every day how I felt and how she could help me. Last minute my flight got changed so she had to help me reschedule our whole 6 day tour together - she made the best out of it!
So grateful for this experience. Don’t doubt - Sonia’s company is making every dollar count.
