    We both travelled on their 19 Sep 2024 Gujarat tour of 10 days, consisting of 56 people, except 1 young girl all were senior citizens. My regards to Shri Ajit Karandikar, his son Shrihari & his nephew Shrikrishna and their team of tour guides and canteen team. Their scheduling was excellent and all spots were covered. All Hotels were 3 star equivalent. All buses 2 x 2 AC were comfortable. Their canteen team was excellent - great tasting food served hot and with a smile. It was like home food. Even at odd locations, packaged food was served. The resources of the Management Team were commendable. The en-route train arrangements were good too. The senior citizens - many were single ladies, who were taken care off for their comfort and safety. This was our second tour with them after we did Srinagar - Leh - Ladakh tour with them. ...more
