Had a great time. Everything was organised to our satisfaction with great response. February, 2026.
A wonderful experience in Bengaluru, Mysore, Coorg and, Ooty. TraEminent India Tours organised my 5-Day South India Tour visiting a combination of city’s and hill station. It was very impressive how they packed a wonderful experience of nature, historical and city experience in a short time. For a Solo first time traveler to India, my trip was quite special and they made it a wonderful experience. I didn’t have to worry about anything, just bring myself, and they took care of the rest. I highly recommend organizing tours with TraEminent India Tours for a wonderful India experience. June, 2023.
Amazing Experience. Myself and two of my friends booked with Shivani and Sunny for a 12 day tour of rajesthan covering Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Pushkar, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer and Udaipur. Shivani was recommended to me by my brother who did the same tour with her a few years back. Firstly, I would like to say how much peace of mind you have when booking through this agency. Shivani was pretty much on WhatsApp whenever I needed her and guided me through the booking process. We opted for the 4* hotel package and many a time we were upgraded - the hotel selections were absolutely fabulous - ranging from leela’s to beautifully maintained Haveli style hotels. The locations were also great as we were never too far of a drive from the main attractions. We had an English speaking guide for the main attractions and this is highly recommended - without a guide it can be difficult to understand what exactly you’re looking at or the history/background of the palace or fort. The guide selections were also on the whole great. The driver which we had was amazing. Initially my family had some reservations as we were three young girls travelling with a male unknown driver but the driver (Manjit) was possibly the sweetest person I have ever met. He treated us like his own family; we never once had to make sure we didn’t leave any valuables in the car - he is such an honest person and reliable too. In the evenings, if we wanted to go out for dinner he wouldn’t complain or grumble in taking us and helped us with restaurant choices etc Overall we had the best trip - it’s always been a dream to tour this side of India and with this agency I was able to do so in a safe, affordable and beautiful way. I can’t wait to book further trips with you next year! Thank you so much again for your help. Date of Experience: March 2019
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.

Memorable Travel experiences with Tra-Emiy. I booked Tra-eminent for two trips this summer back to back. I went to Do-Dham and Puri. Jag is amazing and very helpful he worked with me very patiently. I had to change my plans very often and he was ready to accommodate my plans. When I reached at the airport they received me very cordially. The drivers and guides they provide are amazing they made my trip memorable. If anyone is planning to visit India and wants to travel Tra-Eminent is the best option to choose. I highly recommend them. It is also budget friendly. I had a fabulous trip with beautiful experiences, only with the help of Tra-Eminent entire team. Thank you Jag and team for taking care of your customers with such great service. Date of experience: August 2023
