Guest Testimonials

"The trip has been very interesting & we have learnt a lot about India’s history and culture. We were always picked up on time and taken to any place we asked. We visited many nice restaurants with good services and were also given local advice. Our driver speaks good English and is very friendly. We wouldn’t have asked for a better guide."

"My friend Kristine and I want to thank you for making our adventure in India even more extraordinary. Our itinerary was beautifully planned, every person was kind and thoughtful and most of all we are deeply grateful for the presence of Raj kumar (driver). Many Many thanks."

"Dear Mr. Dhir, I wish to thank you for coordinating all the arrangements to make our trip to Rajasthan a memorable one. Thank you again for your time and efforts."

"Nice vehicles – clean, new. We liked that house boat had a top deck where we could sit & see the sights. The cook on the house boat was excellent. All the food was delicious & the best we had in our whole 3 ½ weeks visit to India. The driver in Kerala was a real advocate for the area. He acted like a guide in telling us about the region. He was very willing to help us any way he could. Highly recommend him. Suggest all guides + drivers have good English language skills.

Overall I would definitely recommend anyone to use “ India Calling” for their trip to India."

"We were well taken care of and it was beyond our expectations. Everyone was on time, very attentive and the guides shared a ton of information with us. Everything was perfect! beyond perfect.

His driving was impeccable, because always drive with care and we always felt safe in his hands. He is very knowledgeable about the area and his made travelling through the countryside in Rajasthan with him a more rewarding experience. He was always very accommodating to our wishes and only brought us to sites we wished to visit. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending India Calling to any visitor to India. "

"Everyone enjoyed this trip. I greatly appreciate having Haider accompanying us as it allowed me to relax and not worry about coordinating with the driver and tour guides and check-in procedures. Of all the tour guides Himanshu in Jaipur was the best because he seemed to genuinely enjoy his job .. he is not only very knowledgeable about Indian history he presented the information in multi sensory way – smell, touch, hearing, seeing, tasting.. he provided a full experience. The driver and his assistance were very good. Driving in India is crazy! Similar to Egypt. Very good experience overall Thank you!"

"It was a great trip, the hotels & staff were outstanding! Out guides were wonderful, they all took good care of us. Special thanks to “Ice cube” who really went out of his way to explain things to us & my kids. I liked how informative he was about the details about everyday palace life and the various decorations & physical functions of objects long gone. Our driver and assistant also did a great job. We left valuables on the bus while we went out sightseeing & over night. they took good care of our things, I didn’t ever worry about their safely. We also let out two boys on the bus once & felt very comfortable that they were safe."

"Dear Mr Dhir, We are back in California after a long trip home, I would like to take this occasion to thank you and the staff of India Calling for the excellent organization and selection of hotels. My special thanks to Mr. Lal, out driver he is an excellent driver, we always felt safe with him even in traffic which is (accurately) described in out guidebook as “not for the faint of heart” . Mr. Lal always looked out for us, pointed us to interesting sights and generally had our welfare at heart. We liked all the hotels, out favourite is the Jai Mahal Palace in Jaipur, this is among the 5 best hotels we ever stayed, if not the best. After it, the Pugmark in Ranthambore was little let down, although it is very clean, nice and has super-friendly staff. But after talking with some people at safari, and their issues with other hotels in Ranthambore, I got an appreciation for your selection (the top, the Oberoi, is on the very expensive side as we know). Again thanks for the hotel selection. If you ever need a reference from a potential customer in the US (or Switzerland) would be happy to help and assure that person of your excellent service. With best regards,"

"Dear Amit, Very many thanks for all your help. – we shall certainly recommend India Calling to our friends. Balbir was an excellent, prudent driver and very kind and supportive to us throughout what must have been a long journey for him. We were worried that he must have been very cold at night as the weather was so unusually cold. Again thanks and best wishes,"

"Dear Amit, Thank you very much for organizing our trip to kerala. Everything went very smoothly. All the hotels were very good and as it was off season we were upgraded at Coconut Lagoon to a large suite and also allowed to hold the room for the extra day. Vanilla County was the highlight of our trip with the superb hospitality of Baby Mathews and his wife as he personally took us on a guided tours of the rubber plantation, drive us around ashrams and temples and swimming in all the rock pools and look after our every need. What a difference excellent personal service makes when travelling. The Toyota Innova from Kerala was brand new car very comfortable. Thank you from all of us. "

"Dear Amit, Driver was very good. We were disappointed that the elephant polo was not available during this time. We do highly recommend the following hotels - Shiv Niwas Palace, Rawla Narlai, Umaid Bhawan Jodhpur & Imperial Delhi. "

"Both lodges tried very hard to accommodate our desires. They did very best to make our stay enjoyable. Neither can be responsible for lack of game or poor weather over all. I cannot say enough about the way problems were resolved. I would definitely recommend both the lodges ( Claridges Hideaway & Sawai Madhopur Lodge) and INDIA CALLING. "

"Dear Amit We have heard from my parents that they had a wonderful time on their visit to Delhi and the tours they made to Haridwar etc. They were very touched by your hospitality and very impressed by the driver you had arranged to escort them everywhere. He was very helpful & my father described him as almost a family member! They are now safely in Chennai having had a comfortable journey there. I would like to add my personal thanks to you for accommodating & looking after them so well, as well as for changing their arrangements on more than one occasion. It did take a huge worry off my mind! We are all very grateful to you.. do let us know if you visit UK as we would be pleased to meet you. With warm regards "

"Dear Amit, Imperial was outstanding. Rajvilas & Leela Palace were excellent as well. Shiv Niwas is a good hotel but not in the same league as the other three. This may just be a relative thing since the other hotels were so good, it made Shiv Niwas look ordinary. You arrangements were superb. "
