Golden Triangle Tour – Excellent service. Thanks to TraEminent tour we had a great first visit in India! We booked this tour at the last minute, but everything went very well from start to finish! We had an amazing tour across the Golden Triangle, through Ranthambore Park and it was simply amazing!! We had a great driver, always on time, we always had an excellent local guide, a person dedicated only to us to be here 24/7 for every question and problem and the manager of the agency visited us personally to make sure everything was going well. They picked us up at the airport and booked all the accommodation for us. The price was simply unbeatable and the service excellent!! We can only recommend it! We are a family with two children, so sometimes we had to change the agreed itinerary, but everything went great. They helped us even when we were sick, our local guide went with us to the pharmacy and helped us buy the necessary pills. I left my wallet at the Mumbai airport and the manager did his best to help me to get it back. I appreciate it!! Lovely experience

My son wanted to visit India and I contacted Tra-Eminent India Tours to book a holiday for us. We absolutely enjoyed the Golden Triangle tour with Haridwar and Rishikesh along with birth place of Lord Krishna- Mathura/Vrindavan. The elephant ride at Amer Fort was simply amazing. We also visited the Taj Mahal in Agra. The last days of the trip were spent in Haridwar and Rishikesh. We witnessed the Ganga Aarti and felt the holy vibes flowing in. We also enjoyed the selection of hotels in each city. Thank you everyone at Tra-Eminent for making it special for me and my family. I highly recommend this travel agency to anyone who is looking forward for a trip to India soon. Date of Experience: January 2019
