1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Staying at the fort in Pachewar and visiting the village, especially the cookery demonstration. The traffic of all sorts was amazing. The Taj Mahal was breathtaking but the other highlight has to be all the cookery demonstrations and friendly helpfulness of everyone, especially the tour guides.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

An extra day in Delhi prior to starting the tour would be beneficial as arriving with jet lag, having a busy day and then a 4am start on the following day was a bit of a shock!

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?

Yes - especially our use of public transport. Although we may have preferred to fly from Mumbai to Goa as our 2nd sleeper train journey initially felt like 1 too many, but in the end it was fine.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?

Excellent - only let down by the poor hotel in Ahmadabad - that needs changing to something better and Melodius Waves in Goa was very basic and the rooms not very clean - maybe review that accommodation too - a pool here is a must!
