Reviews from travellers on this tour

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.

India Tiger Tour with Mumbai

21-Mar-23

Wow - in a word! Action packed with adventure. We thoroughly enjoyed the six half-day safaris over 5 days but would suggest this tour is best suited to the active and adventurous types. There was a lot of distance covered both within three national parks and along the treacherous roads in-between. We were fortunate to have been provided with an excellent driver who was equal to the many challenges. A nice touch was the superbly guided tour of Mumbai on our first day in India providing a good grounding into the history and culture if India whilst offering a brief opportunity to recover from our long journey from Australia. We have already booked our next tour! Thanks to everyone involved.

Kerala - Gods Own Country

Trip to Kerala was an experience, as we visited the Southern part of India for the first time alkof team was in touch with us throughout the tour. Their local representative specially George was very helpful. Thank you so much.

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.

Our trip to India was great. Everything was super well organized, the guides and drivers were super punctual. The guides were very good at imparting their knowledge. We learned a lot about Indian history, religion, food and of course the forts, temples etc. We felt safe and secure at all times. Many thanks to the Alkof Holidays team, drivers, guides. I definitely recommend going on a tour with them and if I ever visit India again, I will use their services myself.
