Our driver Manu was amazing! Polite, helpful and funny. When he took us to our train he sent us with a porter who took us to our beds and then... read more phoned him so I could speak to him and tell him we were on the train fine with no troubles. If you do this tour, ask for Manu! The tour was great also, lots of things to see!

  Taj Mahal Tour - We visited Agra as part of our family holiday from Australia to see the world famous Taj Mahal. We were lucky enough to get a very charismatic and knowledgeable... read more tour guide, Shiva. One of our family members was unwell so before we went to the Taj, we first went to the hospital. Shiva was very helpful translating everything for us so that we understood what the diagnosis was and what the specific medicines prescribed were for.
We arrived at the Taj Mahal and Shiva gave us alot of interesting information on the history of the Taj and surrounding buildings. Shiva is incredibly knowledgeable on the history of Agra and was excited to share the knowledge as we went along. He pointed out the best photo points and also took photos for us so that the whole family was in the photos (very helpful).
When we finished the tour, our family member who was unwell needed to get an IV drip administered at hospital, Shiva was again very helpful in taking us to the hospital and helping translate for us. He even bought me a juice box while I waited with my partner 😊
Overall we had a great tour with Shiva and I would highly recommend his services to anyone wanting to learn about Agra.

  18 days on the road, 9 destinations, more than 2000 km, and countless beautiful memories. Travel India One Day organised for me a wonderful journey through Rajasthan (transport/accomodation+breakfast), including activities... read more like safaris in the jungle and desert - thank you Raj!

I opted for a private driver, now close friend, and I couldn't be happier. If you are trying to squeeze in a few weeks many sites, this is the best option to be flexible and enjoy what you visit, without running behind your scheduled trains/buses. Mannu, my friend and driver, has been a dear companion along this journey. He always made sure I felt comfortable and safe, allowed me to be flexible with my decisions and times, and provided me tips on what to do and what not. I always felt that if anything went wrong, he would be there to help and fix.

The trip was structured flexibly so that I could change a couple of destinations/accommodation along the travel.

To conclude, thanks to a well-thought plan, I had the chance to experience Rajasthan at its best, lighthearted.

  Home away from Home - ¿Where to start?

Experience have been so good i extended my stay at Hindustan by Backpackers and also trusted Raj and Bhupesh with my eyes closed.

Did different... read more tours without planning in avance, thinking my time was limited but they made it possible without me having to worry.

Making me feel safe and like family in such a big country as India is not easy.

Thanks Raj, Bhupi and everyone at Hindustan by Backpackers, hope ill see you again soon!!

Love, Marjorie The Punjab Girl

  4 Day Visit - We were father and son and Bhupi drove us around for 4 days to visit Jaipur, Agra and Dehli for 4 days. During that time our tour guide arranged... read more bicycles, a cooking meal experience with a local family, made to measure shirts and a visit to monkey temple. Having a driver / guide meant we could see more within a short period of time. His boss, Raj, was brilliant

  TLDR;
Bampy, our driver, a generous, kind man, has an enormous heart, and will get you where you need to go in one piece. <3

THE TRIP:
Our... read more trip consisted of Delhi, Jaipur, and Agra, over the span of 5-6 days.
It takes about 4 hours drive between each distance, and throughout the long rides, Bampy always checked on us made us feel comfortable and had an ice-box filled with clean water and (a sneaky beer!) if we were up for it.

Throughout these 5 days we managed to see almost every monument you see on any list of 'famous things to do' in each city, we normally aren't travellers that just sit in a car and allow someone to just chauffeur us everywhere. MY partner and I normally take busses or walk to destinations.
However, For this golden triangle trip as well as Indias scorching erratic weather. This comfort of being in a car with an amazing man was truly a blessing.
Basically you gotta just try it and you will understand, but what we can assure you is that you will be safe and well looked after.
(Also something we noticed is that all the destinations are extremely sparce , and we would have ended up taking tuk tuk and cabs regardless, so just get 1 driver throughout!)

& THE Driver we recommend is BAMBPY!
If you have the choice, we highly recommend Bampy, he will make you feel safe all the way. He invited us to share food with his friends and his brothers, and it was the best meal that we have had so far in India, it was Chicken Afghani, but it wasn't just the food that was amazing it was the company and the hospitality.

We also needed to do fairly taxing things like
; Buy stamps, take a passport photo, get a sim card, (basically this man is well connected in these areas and, he knows where to find what you need, and if he doesnt, he wont stop calling his friends till he finds what you need.

One thing that we thought was really sweet was every morning he would video call his son, Chiki!
Trust this man and enjoy the trip 🙂

  I had a hotel pick up arranged and the driver Bunty spoke good English. We met the guide at the fort - Dr Jay. He was very knowledgeable and explained... read more various aspects about the fort. I think a guide is worthwhile because there are a lot of things that you wouldn’t learn without them. I was on my own and there were no others on the tour so I was able to ask lots of questions.
We were there fairly early so I don’t think we actually jumped a queue. Like many attractions, if you get there early it’s usually less crowded.
There are options to visit old Delhi market lanes afterwards as it in the same neighbourhood.
The driver dropped me back to the hotel making the whole experience fairly painless.
I literally booked a couple of hours before the tour and they were very accomodating in making it happen as I didn’t have a lot of time.

  We book a trip with travel india one day through Rajasthan and varanasi which was amazing.
Our driver was very knowledgeable and he show so many places on the... read more way which was very interesting. Hostel was very decent and clean. Raj was alway keeping touch on whatsApp is everything finefine with us.
I highly recommend this company.
