Private Tour of India with Private Driver in India

Marvin contacted me a while back and booked a Private Rajasthan Tour with me for himself and his family. They were planing on visiting a wedding in Samode during this trip so I kept their tour very flexible with our Private Driver in India .  They did this tour with Sanjay. One of our family Driver and they really had a wonderful time specially because they were flexible to make changes places they visited while traveling with us. His family ( sister and her daughter ) flew back home on 1st Dec 2017 at night and Marvin still had extra days so I suggested him visiting village/Haridwar/rishikesh .  Here are some pictures of his tour with me :-  https://tarunsadventureholidays.wordpress.com/2017/12/10/private-tour-of-india-for-marvin-and-his-family/ We did foot hills of Himalaya, a nice walk through Haridwar and much more around rishikesh area. He even took a bath in Ganga river. I took lots of off-road and Marvin loved it all. He was a great person and we h...

Travel to India with kids

Jeff booked his trip with me a few months back. He booked a Golden Triangle Tour with our Private Driver in India and a visit to Haridwar/rishikesh with me personally. He was traveling with his wife Steph and two children aged 5 (William) and 7 ( Hannah ) , very very cute kids. They did the Golden Triangle Tour with Prem and loved it. Now it was time for me to show them some Real India by visiting our family village home near Haridwar. I took my off road as usual that goes along with the ganga ( known as Ganges in western world :p ) , they loved looking at the small villages as well as the river flowing with its beautiful color ( really amazing ) , we made lots of stops for pee and visiting a nice restaurant with great variety of food for kids. Steph and Jeff are great parents, were really good at entertaining kids while I was driving. Around 3/4pm we arrived in village, they were surprised to see how little the village was as village has only 16 houses and not more the 6...

I met a couple Cheryl/ Jonathan and their daughter Taylor on 9th Nov Early morning. I personally went to  pick up from Delhi airport . They booked  Rajasthan Tour  with our  Private driver in India  but as they had a few extra days I suggested them my favourite regular route that takes people to village / haridwar / rishikesh / solan / shimla / Delhi and they were very interested but before that they waned to do some wedding shopping as they had a friend’s wedding happening in Jaipur while they were on tour with us. I helped them get the shopping done and next day Morning we started the trip to village and they loved having a real Indian experience   , playing cricket with kids and just enjoying the calmness after crazy Delhi. This is Cheryl planing with my cousin Manni and Lucky. They slept in the village and the Brazilian mom/daughter also joined us and slept in the village home   and had a lovely dinner with family. Next day...

Private Old Delhi walking tour

So this was Fiona's last day and her last wish was to see Lotus temple and have a little  Old Delhi walking tour  with me as she heard how great it sounds from all the previous customers etc.  So I picked her up a bit late in the day and drove her directly to Lotus temple and then gave her a  short walk of old Delhi  as she wanted to rest before her long flight back to Australia next morning :-) As it was Fiona's birthday I offered her a nice lunch with me and Anita to make it a bit rememberable for her.  We said good bye and I was preparing myself for the  old delhi walking tour  the next day for two Russian girls and one Australian  solo girl traveling to India alone   with one of our  Private driver in India .  Russian girls Olga and Sofya were very energetic. They arrived around 5am and were already doing tour with one of our  Private driver in Delhi  and I met them later for  Old Delhi walking t...

Visiting local places and Markets in India

We left rishikesh around 10am and I showed Fiona a very special non tourist place which was famous as it's situated in a valley as well as natural Sulphur water. People come here for a bath to clean skin disease and they say it works.  Water fall visit :- Little cave trip :- Flat tyre :-  Then we arrived in Solan which is another beautiful hill station of India famous for Mushroom and tomatoes :-) had some beautiful stuff here and then did a  day trip  to Shimla  visiting local markets .  Now a day away from getting back to reality which is Delhi for me 😭 but have some new people waiting for  Golden Triangle Tour , some people for  Rajasthan Tour , some people for  North India Tour  and some just to have a  Private Driver in India  and choose there own way :-)  Will write more later ;-) hope everyone enjoys
