    My wife & I are from Australia & we recently visited India to explore the north east of the country. We had difficulty finding a travel agent that could understand & meet our travel requirements. By chance we came across Souvenir Solutions in Guwahati & our needs were immediately understood & within a short time a driver was arranged to take us to Tawang & places in between. Our 8 day trip was very good. Our driver was very professional & his driving skills were excellent. We had a flexible itinerary & were able to get off the “beaten path” occasionally. We had a positive experience overall. We can recommend Souvenir Solutions as a reliable & trustworthy travel company. ...more
