Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Crew were professional without being stiff about it. No hesitation recommending them.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. No hesitation recommending them.

Punjab done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed. Recommended.
