WE have travelled with GRJ before but this experience surpassed all our expectations. The organisation was quietly efficient and sometimes not even noticed. The guide (both UK and local) were very informative and efficiently invisible! The Hotels were exceptional and the hotel staff were so well trained. "We just want our guests to be happy" said Karisma in the Hotel in Shimla. All the hotel staff wherever we stayed were friendly and efficient. This is an experience not to be missed. Some photos attached - naturally one of the Taj Mahal where these lovely young people asked to take a selfie with us! One day we arrived back to our hotel room and there was such a welcome brass bowl with flowers and a special footwash. It was so special and lovely and caring. The third photo is from the Breakfast chefs who were present at every meal. An Omelette or Poached Egg cooked just for you and perfectly presented. We could talk incessantly about this trip and would really love to do it all again, Yes we are in our 80's but should have done this trip 20 years ago.

This is an excellent tour and super value for money. The trip is very well organised with huge attention to detail. The tour guides are absolutely brilliant. The visit to Shimla on the toy train is amazing and the visit to the Taj Mahal is unforgettable. If you’re a foodie then you will not be disappointed with the fine selection of foods on offer in all the hotel you stay at. I have no hesitation is recommending this tour to others.
