We just came back from one of our best vacations we ever had
Dear Vikas,
here I my efforts to write a review for our amazing trip. Not easy 🙂
We just came back from one of our best vacations we ever had – thanks to Vikas and his perfect organisation. It’s hard to summarize everything we saw, all the amazing palaces, forts and temples and the wonderful people we met along the way. So I will keep to the main things…
As mentioned before: the trip ( Rajasthan and Goa) was planned perfectly by Vikas Agarwal. He was very patient with my changes and re-changes, was always available ( I don’t know when this man ever sleeps) and supportive before, during and after our trip. I have never made this experience with a tour operator before! he monuments we saw where the highlights of Rajasthan. The sightseeing always started quite early ( 8.30-9.00) so we were always there before the crowds. Very nice. We even saw 2 tigers on our safari at Ranthambore Nationalpark!
I have to admit: First I was a little sceptical to book with an operator based in India but I shouldn’t have been. The payment was easy, because he also has a bank account in Belgium – so no extra charges. T
The guides: In every city we had a new guide. All of them were very experienced, polite and open to all our questions. Thanks to them we learned a lot not only about the history of the many different place, the culture or religions but about their daily life in India. I can recommend every one of them! Their English was also very good 🙂 They also like to show some typical handicraft on the tour ( carpets, drawings, diamonds) but you can always say No!
Driver and car: Gulab, our driver throughout the trip, was one of our highlights! He is such a sweet, polite and humorous man you just have to love! And, of course, an amazing driver in the chaotic traffic. We always felt super safe with him! On our long drives we talked a lot about almost everything: politics, religion, his daughters wedding 🙂 He went out of his way for us, was always there and only left when we had securely checked in our hotel. Gulab was like a guardian angel!!! He is very proud of his a car, a comfortable SUV. He washed it every day, it was more than clean – inside and out. He also gave us tips, where to eat or where to shop. We couldn’t have wished for a better driver and person. Thank you so much, Gulab.
The hotels: This I can make short – no complaints! They were all good or even excellent! You can trust Vikas on his choices. Or if you would like a different hotel, he will arrange it.
Summary: This is also easy. Next time – and there will be a next time after our wonderful experience – we will only book with Vikas !!!!!

India and Nepal round trip: Review + Pictures
**This review was written in German and has been translated using Google Translator
We have decided at short notice to make a North India-Nepal round trip in October 2022.
On the Internet we came across “VacationIndia.com” and contacted Mr. Vikas, the owner of VacationIndia.com. The reaction time impressed us already here. Within a very short time Mr. Vikas contacted us and made us an offer according to our wishes.
Also during the round trip, Mr. Vikas, whom we were allowed to meet personally in Agra, was always available at very short notice via WhatsApp. In case of small inconsistencies – there were real problems on the round trip – he intervened immediately.
The trip was perfectly tailored to our wishes. Since our English skills are not so good, Mr. Vikas got us German-speaking guides almost throughout the trip, which was certainly not always easy.
Our trip started in mid-November 2022 in Delhi and took us via Jaipur, Ranthambhore, Agra, Ochra, Khajuroho and Varanasi to Napal. The stops there were Lumbini- the birthplace of Buddha- Chitwan National Park, Pokara and finally Kathmandu.
The trip was an unforgettable experience. Special mention should be made of the bike tour we did early in the morning in Jaipur. A real “blast”.
Thank you very much for the great arrangement.
Many greetings from Germany

Hello Mr. Vikas
After initial doubts about a trip to India as a woman, I let myself be convinced to take this trip.
After we have made very good experiences with the travel agency of Mr. Vikas, which has organized us the trip to Sri Lanka, I have made the India trip.
The booking was relatively easy, all our questions were answered quickly and well.
Our driver during the tour was very friendly and accommodating, as well as a very good driver.
There were no complaints with the tour guides, they responded to our requests.
When once in a hotel there was a complaint about the room in Goa Hotel, Mr. Vikas helped us immediately and we got the next day another, very nice room.
After 2 trips organized by Mr. Vikas, I can only highly recommend this travel agency.
I can only report positive things about the India round trip.
I can well imagine, again a trip from this travel agency (Vikas) to organize.
Greetings from Austria

Namaste Vikas,
yes we arrived back home safely. With the excellent driver***** we have had great pleasure to get through the turmoil of Indian traffic without any accident. Your organization and care was very fine as the first time.
To the individual stations: — It was optimal that we had the hotel so close to the airport, where we arrived nevertheless only at 1:55 in Delhi and flew away also in the night again.
Tijara Fort: — A wonderful facility of Neemrana, The owner is very anxious the facility always further to develop and and with much cultural understanding to beautify, after all, he is also an architect!! our room was but not particularly beautiful, there are much much more beautiful in this fort.
Hill Fort Kesroli heritage: — Also a beautiful romantic complex, our room had unfortunately very many steps,
but the manager upgraded us and gave us a great tower room, which we found very friendly.
Hotel Fort Begu: — This palace is very nice and the service was quite good. It was actually already too cold for dinner in the garden. Rooms are also much nicer in the palace than any on the roof. Overall, the facility needs better care, so much pigeon droppings in front of our room would not have to be.
Chittorgarh: — A wonderful coincidence, here we had the same caretaker as in 2008, Mrs. Parvati we have taken to heart. We then also stayed at her home and met the whole family, in their perfectly renovated Haveli.
Shiv Niwas Palasthotel Udaipur: — We had again apartment 16, wonderful. Service perfect, just nice stay, even without pool you feel comfortable there*****
Aodhi, Kumbalgarh: — Surprisingly beautiful complex in the middle of the forest. They took great care of us and had a very nice apartment above the pool.
Sardargarh Fort Palasthotel: — Very well maintained, wonderful as the first visit, but unfortunately no dinner on the roof terrace because it was already too cold for that. Pleasant acquaintance with the owner family Kumari Dharitri Raol & Thakur Mahipal Singhji Dodiya at dinner together. This house is really highly recommended ***** especially when the restoration and remodeling work is done.
Deogarh Mahal: — Very nice apartment of the princess with large roof terrace. Reception of the owner before dinner. I already knew his father, we were already there in 2008. Everything in the best way.
Vivaana Cultur: — Beautiful Haveli complex, room only with 2 tiny little windows.
Alsisar Mahal: — Beautiful and very well maintained palace with a very friendly owner. Fantastic roof terrace with bar. We were given an apartment with roof terrace on request.
Of course I will recommend your services with a clear conscience 🙏🏻😊
