Feedback
It was a fantastic trip for us, we get to see so many attractions of Rajasthan during our trip. Forts, palaces and monuments of Rajasthan mesmerized us. Elephant ride at Amber Fort was a nice experience. Even today we remember our trip and we will plan another trip to Rajasthan in future too.


Rajasthan Vacation in India was our trip to Rajasthan and India as well. We never imagined that India would be so much beautiful and it is bestowed with such a wonderful monument like Taj Mahal. Earlier we had only heard about the beauty of Taj, but seeing the monument ourselves was altogether a different experience.


This was my second trip with Trinetra tours and I was offered much better services than my last journey. Besides, my tour guide Yogesh was a nice and intelligent person and stand beside me throughout my tour. Thanks to Trinetra and Yogesh for a lovely trip.
