Ms. Toni Maree Anita


Traeminent Tours organised my 8 day trip around Kerala. We planned everything together so we could fine tune the itinerary. The accommodation was well chosen. The sites were interesting and I learned a lot about life in Kerala. My driver Fisol was excellent and made sure my holiday ran smoothly as the man on location. He went above and beyond his duties. I also asked for guides who spoke English in some locations for specific tours which helped me as an Australian. As a woman travelling alone, I felt safe and well cared for by everyone along the way. I vpukd contact the company for information whilst on tour and they replied quickly. Local knowledge was extra useful so my experience was rewarding and memorable. I would recommend this tour to others who need assistance to plan a visit to Kerala. The price is fair, the food along the way was delicious and the spice tours were great, just to name a few things. I even had time for a massage. The trip of a lifetime! March, 2026.

Mr. Tamilarasu


Extremely well-organized trip! The agent was always reachable and responsive, and the drivers were seasoned professionals who knew the routes and timings perfectly. March, 2026.

Ms. Maureen Cordes


We have just returned from a trip to Arangabad, Hampi and Badami. I found TraEminent on Trustpilot and whatsapped them and got an immediate reply from Sunny, who listened to what we wanted to do then passed us to his colleague Prachi to organise our trip. Prachi sent suggestions of different hotels and also suggested we added Badami to our itinery, which was an excellent suggestion. She organised hotels, drivers, guides and internal flights. Our hotel vouchers and internal flight bar codes were sent to us via email. We paid for the trip in 3 installments, the final one being on the day we arrivec in India. Our contact once the trip was organised and whilst we were in India was Mukesh. Prachi also created a group Whatsapp for herself, Mukesh, my husband and myself. As the holiday neared the war in Iran started and up until the day we travelled we were not sure we would be able to travel and Mukesh was excellent in starting to secure refunds and vouchers. But fortunately on the day we were able to travel, although due to late setting off and extra travel time we missed our connection from Delhi to Aurangabad and had to travel early the next morning. I contacted Mukesh who rearranged the pickup from the airport. Mukesk kept in contact with us daily for the duration of the trip and informed us of each drivers and car details the day before the pick up. We had 2 drivers, Aleem for Aurangabad and Ram for Hampi and Badami, both were excellent and the cars were comfortable. Our guides were excellent and very knowledgeable. The hotels were exactley what we wanted and the intetnal flights with Indigo were ideal time wise. We had the best 10 day tour. Thank you TraEminent for you help, patience and communication. We would definately recommend using TraEminent and would use them again. Thank you Prachi and Mukesh, you were great. March, 2026.

Mrs. Priti Kishore

Took a one week trip through Kerala. TraEminent did an excellent job coordinating our itinerary . Prachi was very responsive setting up our itinerary and was a pleasure to work with . Our driver, Linesh, was the best. He was helpful throughout our entire journey, told us details about each location and was mindful as to how he drove. as we had young children traveling with us. Munnar and the tea plantations were the highlight of our trip and we still miss our houseboat in Allepey . Simply a wonderful and memorable trip. January, 2026.

Mr. Parvin Kumar


Shivani and Nitin helped our group of 6 plan a 11 day tour of Kerala. The itinerary was well designed, with beautiful hotels and sightseeing destinations along the way.
