We had a wonderful trip. Everything worked out and the on the ground care was exceptionally good. The Itinerary for both Rajasthan and Kerala was finely judged and incorporated sight seeing with sufficient rest time to make both highly enjoyable. We loved the variety of hotels in the North with Fateh Garh, overlooking Udaipur, being very special. The train journeys were incredibly atmospheric.
