Well, we took a trip to India with TRA-Eminent. TRA-Eminent is a tailor-made travel agency. They can organize travel itineraries according to the needs of their clients and not according to pre-defined packages. All the places we wanted to visit were duly covered in terms of the main tourist attractions there. And with extremely good professional guides, very competent in their work, with the ability to adapt to the circumstances and unforeseen events that occurred during the trip. And, as extremely safe drivers in their transfers, we always felt perfectly safe on the trips we took. Even the most unpleasant situations that arose, particularly in a hotel, were resolved without any problems by Tra-Eminent, and we were very satisfied and happy to have been able to have an excellent trip, following the program we wanted.

My trip went really well. The management of the trip was absolutrly perfect. The hotels were great, the plan was good, and the team was in regular contact with me during the tour, which gave me peace of mind. Overall, it all went well. The only thing that bothered me was the time alloted in Gulmarg. I was alloted only half day in Gulmarg, which wasnt sufficient. The highlight of the trip was the driver - Adil. You spend a long time with your driver and having a good (or bad) driver makes a lot of difference. Adil went above and beyond to accommodate me in any way possible. Gave that personal touch in every aspect of the travel. Very professional and kept guiding me where possible. Overall a great trip and I would surely recommend my friends and family. And personal thanks to Nity (operations team) for being there with me throughout the trip. Gave me that comfort and assurance I needed. Thanks and all the best to the team

My India tour with TraEminent India Tour. I organized a personal tour with the Company. The tour lasted 21 days and included Rajasthan, Delhi, Agra and Varansi. The tour gave me an idea of India's culture, arts, craftmanship, people and society. The Company assigned me some personnel to travel by car and to be guided in the main historic archeological sites. All was good and perfect and the representatives of Tra Eminent India tour were always very kind, inclusive and ready to solve some little practical problems. I loved India thanks also to them. I can"t wait to return to this fascinating land and I take for granted that I will still use their services. Date of Experience: February 2024

Personalised tour. The tour was well organised by Sunny and Mukesh. Flights booked/ hotels chosen and the final price was reasonable. The drivers they arranged in each city were professional/ clean reliable cars. We opted for the sedan car which was comfortable for the two of us. The guides they arranged were knowledgeable and helped us navigate the cities. In summary, very happy with the tour. Date of Experience: January 2025
Made memories in India. We had a great time in India and part of the reason why is due to our great guides in Amritsar and Varanasi. Ayodhya was a bit of an issue as the guide was not easy to understand and didn’t show us the sites we wanted on Diwali night. Also, the room in our hotel in Ayodhya had wood lice, so we had be moved to another room. Other than that, our trip and drivers were great. We have already recommended Tra-Eminent to our friends. Date of Experience: December 2024

Discovery. Excellent time! We went between seasons, so missed the views of flowers, apples, snow,... but concentrated the cultural aspect. The country side is beautiful, as are the towns, the Mosques , and the people.Our guide and driver, (Faisel, & Hussein), (sorry fellas, if the spelling is wrong), were ideal for the situation. Both passionate and knowledgeable about their country, their culture, and faith.We got to visit villages, towns, mountains, parks, Mosques, and felt we were the only tourists around. (Big advantage for travelling this time of year.) In all places, including the lovely hotels, everyone made us most welcome. I have no hesitation in recommending Tra-Eminent for travel plans here. Full stars. Date of Experience: November 2024
