Feedback
Very frankly speaking in the past I have always travelled India independently and avoided tours. However, this time I visited with Trinetra Tours and my trip to Indian and Nepal was beyond my expectations. Without question, the experienced group leaders of Trinetra really worked good for us and made our trip a pleasant experience.


Excellent trip, we never imagined such a fantastic trip. We really enjoyed each and every moment of our tour. Thanks to Trinetra and our tour leader Monty who was well-informed about the destinations of Rajasthan.


Before travelling with Trinetra Tours I was little worried about accommodation and transportation, but Trinetra provided me ultimate comfort. We passed six weeks in Nepal and India travelling through various cities and towns, despite extensive journey our trip always remained full of fun.
