5.00Where can I start… Hotels are very good and pretty comfortable to the point that you don’t want to leave. They have booked the best of the best views. N I mean insta worthy. We had to reroute my tour due to some health concerns of mine which was done immediately by Krishan (my awesome tour guide) and the tour team. They thought of everything. From meals, transport, services… only thing left was for me to enjoy my holiday that’s it. It was unforgettable! Highly recommend their tour.
