Excellent tour of Varanasi with the best tour company
One of the best ever trips to India. We did the five days four noghts trip.
From the day I contacted this company I have been impressed with the prompt replies, the courtesy and patience with which all questions were answered.
Aamir Sheikh, the boss, Bablu the guide plus all in one man, and most importantly Yashwant the driver were very helpful.
We went to the Triveni, Varanasi and Gaya to peform the rituals for the ancestors.
Bablu, the guide, put up with all the delays we encountered with a smile on his face. The car and driver were always on time, even at 5 AM.
The driver, Yashwant, was excellent, never once exceeding the speed limits, and driving with great car over rough roads.
We received courtesy calls from the boss, Aamir, every day, just to ask us if all was well. The hotels booked were excellent and we were treated very well.
I would strongly recommend this company to anyon ewho wishes to visit Varanasi.
