Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Rooms were comfortable and the locations meant we could walk most evenings. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed. No hesitation recommending them.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Would send friends their way.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Worth every rupee.
