    Namaste Holiday was highly recommended by a friend from England. We were delighted with all the arrangements Dinesh Kumar Gaur made for our sight seeing tour of Rajasthan and our onward travel requirements. Essentially he arranged a car and driver to take us ever we wished to visit in Jaipur, and Agra and arranged our onward travel,one group back to Delhi and one on to Lucknow. The cars and drivers were excellent and Bajrang Singh Ji was particularly helpful. Dinesh also arranged a guide in Jaipur for the Janta Mantra and the city Palace who was very good. Overall the arrangements made our trip to Rajasthan and onto Lucknow very easy. Would recommend unreservedly. ...more

    I traveled with my family to Manali, Agra and Delhi during Feb end 2015. and booked package trip from Himalayan Navigators. This is the best travel agency I have ever met. Himalayan Navigators had given me the best customization package. Inclusion/Exclusions were clearly mentioned and are met as well. All the cabs/buses/hotels provided during are very nice. Best part of the service is they are very friendly and available all the time during trip on phone and assist you if any problems faced with hotel/bus. Special thanks to Chander Kant who assisted us getting best package and assisting during entire trip. Also thanks to Pawan and Sushil for showing us best sight seeing and eating places in Manali :) Final words: This is a genuine review, if someone is looking for hassle free travel in Himalaya or Delhi/Agra, I would definitely recommend Himalayan Navigators :) ...more
