“Fantastic trip of a lifetime thanks to Harish”
Harish was absolutely brilliant as our guide, we couldn’t have wanted more. We had a 10 day bespoke private tour and he also helped us find a guide for some onward travel. Harish was very personable and knowledgable as a guide and responsive to what we wanted (some days we were tired and wanted to do less, other days we wanted to do more). Nothing was too much trouble for him and he sorted absolutely everything for us from all our drivers and travel to cups of chai and the right street food to try. The tour with Harish was great value and a brilliant investment in our trip. Without him we just would have not had the fantastic experience that we did.
