What travelers are say about their trips to Kerala Backwaters

Awed in India

02/16/17 by 2nd-time traveler Holly

My husband and I have been home for a week and we are still dreaming of India. Every moment from beginning to end was absolutely delightful and educational. Our guide Rajeev was such a wealth of information, there wasn't anything you asked him that he didn't know, and was so easy going.

India: Delhi, Agra & Jaipur

An absolute must!

10/13/17 by 6th-time traveler Katie

I loved, loved, loved India! There are several reasons to put India on your list. The first reason is the food. It was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. I never had a bad meal. Secondly, the Taj Mahal blew my mind. I had chills once I stood in front of it.

India: Delhi, Agra & Jaipur

Bucket list expectations exceeded!
