Feedback
Fantastic experience, what I loved the most was the interaction with local people of Rajasthan. In fact, we reached remote areas that you would never reach as an independent traveller or when you are in a big tourist group. In addition, Trinetra tours organized several activities for us which were simple but they were always interesting.


We visited India on Reminiscenes of Rajasthan tour, our trip was incredible. Apart from cars, we enjoyed unique type of transport such as camel safari and horse safari. Our guide Yogesh was great, he was well-known about the desert land of Rajasthan and he made our trip really amazing.


Reminiscences of Rajasthan trip offered by Trinetra Tours was a fantastic experience for us. Our trip was full of culture, fun, new friends and fond memories. I will definitely plan my next visit to India with Trinetra Tour again.
