An amazing holiday
India
|
Feb 4 - Feb 12, 2023
From start to finish, Ravi and his team were totally professional and gave an excellent service. Six of us were on the tour that Ravi organised for us and the itinerary was varied and perfectly adapted to meet with our requests. A lovely combination of visiting famous sites with getting to know the cities and visiting local craftsmen. The minibus was comfortable and our driver was kind and considerate, always making sure the bus was spotlessly clean in the morning and that the cool box was full of bottles of water. Our guides in each city were interesting and incredibly knowledgeable; we leant so much from these men and appreciated their humour and friendliness. The hotels were clearly well chosen - clean, boutique style places that were well run with polite and helpful staff. Unfortunately, we suffered some ill health during our visit, but Ravi and his team went out of their way to make sure they were comfortable and made arrangements for them to travel on to meet the rest of the group when they were fit and well.
I will certainly be using KimKim for my next holiday in India!
Hotel Reviews
Spacious, clean rooms in beautiful, lush gardens. The pool area was perfect for relaxing and the food was delicious.
Helpful staff, clean comfortable rooms. Excellent breakfasts
Such friendly and helpful staff. A hotel full of character and charm. A varied dinner menu and excellent breakfasts.
What a treat - this hotel in the middle of nowhere was quiet and clean with beautiful outside sitting areas and a lovely pool. A co-operative is part of the set up where women make beautiful bags from offcuts of cotton which they profit from by selling. As well as sewing, they spend an hour each day leaning to read and write. because of the location, you have to eat in the hotel - the choice was limited but delicious.
The rooms were quite small and the bathrooms could have done with a bit of updating. The beds were very comfortable. The rooftop restaurant was a bit soulless and breakfast was disappointing. However, the food we ate in the evening was delicious.
Activity Reviews
Such fun. Great atmosphere. It was lovely to see some traditional Indian entertainment
The Red Fort was stunning to look at and our visits to the temples was made so much more enjoyable because of the amazing knowledge of our guide. We got to learn so much about Indian religion, culture and history.
Lovely to be taste authentic street food that you knew was safe to eat!
Really enjoyed the trip to the house where Gandhi spent his last days. Fascinating insight into the Indian marriage system from our lovely guide
A time for some peace and tranquillity
It's a long journey and the jeep safari was a real disappointment
The fort was amazing, and again, our guide was superb
It's a long journey - but it has to be done. You wouldn't really describe it as amazing because it isn't. BUT, it's made as comfortable as possible by being in a very comfortable minibus
Another brilliant guide, another fascinating day
Perhaps I was a little bit cultured out by the time we got here; but the palace was interesting to see and I loved the boat trip out to the island. Enjoyed seeing the artisan painters.
