An excellently planned and delivered trip to Southern India

From Hampi to Madurai to Chennai (no easy feat of planning) taking in all the major temple architecture

Rating for tour operator:

We first used TransIndus in 1997 to go to North India (on the recommendation of a colleague who has travelled with them for the past 20 or more years) and had an excellently planned private tour; this time we went to South India and the planning and delivery were as good as ever, and at a bargain price. I can't recommend TransIndus highly enough.

Fabulous South India - a perfect adventure

My wife and I have just spent the most fabulous time touring South India. We planned our trip with good advice and experience from Transindus. We wanted to experience, the true colours, smells, spices, tigers, elephants, wildlife and beauty of South India and we did. The whole trip was truly spectacular and way above our expectations. This was our second adventure in India and it will not be our last. It is a beautiful country with lovely people, ...

My wife and I have just spent the most fabulous time touring South India. We planned our trip with good advice and experience from Transindus. We wanted to experience, the true colours, smells, spices, tigers, elephants, wildlife and beauty of South India and we did. The whole trip was truly spectacular and way above our expectations. This was our second adventure in India and it will not be our last. It is a beautiful country with lovely people, incredibly different to anywhere in Europe, which makes it very special and an incredible place to have a holiday. I would not hesitate to recommend TransIndus, particularly the understanding and involvement they are prepared to offer during the booking process.

Rating for tour operator:

We have been to India before, so we had a fair idea of the sort of things we wanted to see, the type of places we wanted to stay and also the amount of time we were prepared to spend traveling. Plus it is easy to research and discover things for yourself on the Internet. However, we also know TransIndus has the experience and infrastructure to help put together a holiday without fault. This meant that we got exactly what we wanted, with the professional advice and security of booking through TransIndus. Even down to the driver who was available throughout our adventure, safe, calm and professional was the only way to describe him. I would highly recommend Transindus to anyone looking for a superb bespoke adventure in India.

My wife and I had an independent holiday planned by Transindus in Southern India. The itinerary was perfectly suited to us as were the hotels. We were met at every airport and guided to our car or through check in. The guides were first class and our driver was outstanding - NOTHING was too much trouble. This is our second holiday with Transindus and I would recommend them every time.

Dear Mr Payne,

Thank you for your generous feedback. I am delighted you had a memorable holiday and that everything ran smoothly despite the number of different places you visited.

I will thank our teams on the ground for their exceptional excellent work in looking after you and pass on my gratitude to them for their consistent and committed work.

I do hope we will welcome to other parts of India and Asia with us.

with warm regards

Our holiday covered Delhi, Agra, Ranthanbore, in The North followed by Madurai through to Cochin in the South finishing off in Mumbai over a 3 week period. Transindus helped us to tailor the holiday exactly to our requirements and recommended hotels and itineraries. We had our own car with driver and guide as well as 2 train journeys, internal flights and a night on a houseboat in Kerala Back Waters. We were looked after superbly throughout ...

Superb Planning and Execution

Perfect, in every respect. A fabulous 3 weeks in Tami Nadu and Kerala, following our trip to Rajasthan and Varanasi last year. Like that trip, it not only met but exceeded all our hopes and expectations

Rating for tour operator:

Exceptionally responsive and efficient. We interviewed several agencies for our recent trips to North and South India, and chose Transindus principally because they were by far the most responsive to our particular needs and interests. Thanks to that responsiveness, the trips were superbly planned to meet and exceed our particular hopes and expectations -- we enjoyed every moment of them; and if we were doing them again, we wouldn't change a single thing. Throughout our trip, they continued to check in with us to make sure everything was OK; and when a local strike required a schedule adjustment, they achieved this very promptly and successfully.
