TAYLOR MADE TOUR

12-Feb-2020

En marzo 2020 hice mi primer viaje a India con una amiga. India es increíble. No hace falta decir más. La organización del viaje hecho por Seven Wonder Tour & Travels fue fundamental para que la experiencia global fuera EXCELENTE. No pudimos completar el viaje por la pandemia, una gran lástima no haber conocido más.

Excellent Arrangements

10-Apr-2019

The knowledgeable tour guide who brought me and my friends to explore the mystery of Taj Mahal. We were rushing for flight returning to home town and was thinking to skip the lunch, but he made good suggestions of buying takeaway of roasted chicken and beef. Overall the trip was fun, safe, and smooth.

India will change your world view

12-Jun-2019

Our 11 days private tour changed our worldview. My wife and I are well-traveled. We have experienced 40+ countries on all continents except Antarctica. India is in a class of its own. As I sit here at home again, enjoying a cup of masala tea, India enters my thought again. It was truly an experience of all the senses. The folks at Seven Wonder Tour & Travels put together a fantastic adventure covering the tastes & textiles of India. Find a new part of your spirit.

We did the Golden Triangle tour with Seven Wonder Tour & Travels. They were all very receptive in arranging the tour specifications to our needs. Abhinav made sure we were comfortable and all details were managed well. The tour guides they arranged for us were very knowledgeable, accommodating, and very friendly. I highly recommend this tour company.
