Taj Temples and Tigers India Tour

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.

Kerala Ayurveda Tour
16-Mar-23
This February, I with my group of 8 other people visited the Kerala Ayurveda Tour with Alkof Holidays, It was a journey unlike any other. Spanning across the picturesque landscapes of Kochi, Munnar, Thekkady, Alleppey Backwaters, and culminating in the tranquil haven of Kovalam, this journey offered a perfect blend of cultural immersion and wellness indulgence.
Alkof Holidays orchestrated an impeccable itinerary that allowed us to delve into the vibrant tapestry of Kerala's diverse attractions. From the colonial charm of Kochi to the mist-covered hills of Munnar, each destination captivated us with its unique allure and rich heritage. The tour was seamlessly curated to ensure that we experienced the essence of each place, from spice plantations in Thekkady to the serene backwaters of Alleppey.
Amidst our travels, the highlight undoubtedly awaited us in Kovalam, where Alkof Holidays orchestrated a transformative Ayurveda experience. Nestled along the sun-kissed shores, we were enveloped in a realm of holistic healing and rejuvenation. The Ayurvedic treatments, personalized to our needs, were a testament to Kerala's ancient wellness traditions, leaving us feeling refreshed and revitalized.
Throughout our journey, Alkof Holidays' commitment to excellence was unwavering. From luxurious accommodations to seamless logistics, every detail was meticulously arranged to ensure our utmost comfort and satisfaction. The attentive care of their team made us feel truly valued, enhancing our overall experience.
As we bid farewell to Kerala, we carried with us cherished memories and a profound sense of well-being, grateful for the opportunity to embark on this enriching journey with Alkof Holidays. For anyone seeking an unforgettable exploration of Kerala's splendor coupled with a rejuvenating Ayurveda experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Alkof Holidays. Thank You..

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.

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
