A very splendid tour indeed. It is due to the good work of Mr. Sashi Gupta and Ms. Meenakshi who from the very beginning understood our requirements and arranged the tour. We are well helped by the tour guide Mr. Lawrence with his knowledge and the car driver Mr. Kasi who understood the necessities and needs of senior citizens. They made the tour very enjoyable. We have no doubt with such crew like above, the tour company Agora Voyages and Viator are in very good hands. We look forward to such tours in future for sure. Thank you all for making our tour most memorable.
