We had a wonderful experience traveling through Northeast India. The trip was well-organized, and Mr. Das provided valuable input during the planning phase, ensuring that our itinerary was well-struct (Read More)ured and suited our interests. Our driver was professional and drove safely throughout the journey. While he needed some guidance at the beginning, he quickly adapted, and we felt comfortable and secure with him behind the wheel. He did not speak English very wel, but we could manage to communicate to our needs. Overall, we were very satisfied with the trip and would recommend this travel service to anyone looking to explore this region in India.
