Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Worth every rupee.
Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Would send friends their way.
Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Simple food, well made, and enough of it.
Glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you on another trip.

Thank you. We've taken the point about the transfer and are reviewing it.
Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. Would book with them again.
Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. Plenty to eat and they were happy to work around a gluten allergy. Would send friends their way.
Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing.

Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down. Would book with them again.
Only with a timed, capped ticket and issued sandals. The stone was wearing measurably under millions of feet and access to the upper terraces was restricted in 2023. The lower galleries, where the reliefs are, remain open normally — and the reliefs are the point.
