We had a wonderful time visiting Golden Triangle with Imperial Holidays in March 2023 starting in Jaipur. We booked all the hotels ourselves to make sure they are up to our standards and we glad we did so. Our Jaipur guide Kamal greeted us at the Leela hotel and lead us to an exquisite and pleasant tour of the city. We also attended very educational presentations by jewelers and the carpet makers during the tour and were convinced to make purchases we wouldn’t make anywhere else. The tour guides in Agra and Futehpur Sikri were just as knowledgeable and caring and we had most interesting and enjoyable time at these historical places. The Chand Boori (step well) visit left very special impression as an enchanting ancient place. Our Delhi guide was knowledgeable, but barely interested in introducing his city; luckily, the street ricksha he hailed was really a welcoming guide to the streets and markets of Old Delhi. Finally, and most importantly, the entire tour was made an absolutely wonderful by our car driver Rajesh. Rajesh drove us with an exceptional skill throughout the hectic and complicated traffic of Jaipur, Agra, Delhi and all the towns on the way. We learned so much about India from Rajesh as we spent a lot of time on the road with him. He made sure we were comfortable on the long drives and arranged smooth on and off with local guides at each and every stop. Rajesh made our tour really spectacular and we cannot praise him enough. Thank you Rajesh and all at Imperial Holidays for the delightful time we had in India!
