Tip can given after completion of the services from 5$, 10$ or more as per your choice and depending on how much satisfied & happy you are with the service provider. Standard tipping that travelers provide to different service providers: Pickup & Drop - 2$ to 10$ Waiters -1$ to 5$ Drivers - 5$ to 10$ Managers & Tour Guides - 10$ to 50$ or it totally depends on you

Reviews from travellers on this tour

Rishu Sharma

Short Trip to Kashmir

01-Apr-24

We recently visited Kashmir for 5 days, and had a very good experience there. Kashmir is very beautiful, people are very friendly. The itinerary was well planned, tour was well organized and expertly managed by alkof holidays. We can recommend them.

Mary Carmen Torres

Excellent tour

16-Apr-23

Excellent tour, all the staff were always concerned about our safety and comfort. The guides were very helpful in getting to know each place, especially the guide from Jaipur whose English was very good and adapted according to our interests. The attention and assistance of the driver was key to having a good experience, Nandu always worried about us until the last day. I suggest they could have more restaurant options for each location, since the quality in some of them was not very good (Agra and Jaipur). But overall we had a very good experience. We are very grateful for the service received.

Short Trip to Kashmir

Our recent 5-day journey to Kashmir was nothing short of exceptional. The breathtaking beauty of Kashmir, coupled with the warm hospitality of its people, made our experience truly memorable. Alkof Holidays impressed us with their meticulously planned itinerary, seamless organization, and expert management of the tour. We wholeheartedly recommend them based on our fantastic experience.

India Wildlife Safari - Asiatic Lions with the Bengal Tigers

16-Mar-23

The trip was fabulous and well managed, we were lucky that we finished our India trip in February before this COVID19 crisis. These guys are amazing, and I can easily recommend the company to anyone want to visit India.

Debra, USA

Bandhavgarh Kanha Pench Tour

22-Oct-22

Our family had a customized tour that included all three national parks for tiger safaris as well as the traditional golden triangle tour. We had 2 different drivers during the tour that picked us up at the airport or drove us to the next location. The drivers were always early, extremely friendly and helpful, and the cars were immaculate. We stayed at six different hotels that were picked out for us. They were all very nice and I would stay at them again. The guides at each location were very knowledgeable and friendly. The company itself stayed in contact with me throughout the trip to make sure I did not need anything. I would highly recommend this company. This tour was much more flexible and convenient than participating in a group tour where everyone has to keep up with a group pace.

Marcel Merlo

Escorted Kashmir Ladakh Tour Package

23-Oct-23

I enjoyed my trip immensely. every day was wonderfully beautiful. Everything went perfectly, without any problems. My stay in Ladakh was especially wonderful. I would like to thank my driver/guide Sharif. It was a pleasure to travel with him. He was a very good driver, but also a very good and caring guide. If I could visit another part of Ladakh next year in July or August, I would definitely want to do so, possibly in combination with the Indian Himalayas. I would also like to thank Alkof Tours for the good organization and good follow-up of my trip. Marcel Merlo Belgium

11-Jan-23

I had a fantastic time in India. Everything was very well planned and organised. I managed to see the tigers but also so much more. I had two different drivers during my stay and a separate tour guide in each city I visited. I would highly recommend visiting India with Alkof Holidays.
