6 Days Golden Triangle Tour

8 Night Golden Triangle Tour

We booked the 8 night tour of the Golden Triangle, including 2 nights at Ranthambore to see the Tigers. We enjoyed our time in India, however there were a few issues with tour guides and hotels. For example, tour guides taking us to several cottage industries which were not planned in the itinerary. We also chose the 4* hotel package, not all of the hotels were up to a 4* standard. Our driver, Sanjay, was brilliant. We felt very safe and comfortable on the busy roads. He went out of his way to ensure we were happy throughout our tour. Would highly recommend Sanjay as a driver for those looking at booking this trip!

India for Beginners

This trip would not have been the same without our driver Sanjay. Credit where credit is due, we felt safe and comfortable with Sanjay’s driving. Sanjay went out of his way to ensure we were happy and didn’t mind stopping on the way telling us more details of India, sharing information of his family and making sure we saw the best of his country. We had a 7 seater minivan which fit all our luggage and us 5 travellers for the long drives between cities. A big thank you to you Sanjay!! The tour itself was a 9 day tour of the Golden Triangle with a stop in Ranthambore to see the National Park and tigers. It was all planned for us and was relatively straight forward in terms of payment 50% upfront, 25% a month before and 25% on arrival in India. Manish the owner was quick to respond on WhatsApp and answered questions we had about the trip. Take notice of your itinerary, research anything you wish to add before you arrive and be sure that everything is correct (for example duplicate attractions on multiple days) before you arrive to save yourself the hassle. For each leg of the trip we had a tour guide to explain the tourist spots and local history. On the whole this was helpful, but one or two of the tour guides we experienced seemed not as interested in doing this and would often walk off or explain briefly and tell us to go and look ourselves. We would also be regularly asked to go and see cottage industries and shops that would sell things to us rather than explaining, for example hand knotted carpets or pashminas. Feeling targeted to buy something even though we did not wish to purchase. In Ranthambore, the 5 of us were booked onto a large jungle safari, this was not mentioned in the travel booking as being part of a 22 person safari. Jungle guides for each safari are apparently selected randomly and it is pot luck to whether you get a good guide or not. Again, something to be aware of and to request a smaller jeep if possible which is something I would have liked Manish to have mentioned at the time of booking. For the hotels each night, we chose the 4* package, yet some of the choices of hotels were not at this level with problems in the hotels with cleanliness and attentiveness to detail in rooms, food, wifi, in-hotel bills etc. Especially the Fern Reaidency in Jaipur. Overall a very good trip for first timers to India but be aware of the hotels and “tourist trap” cottage industries selling things to unbeknown visitors.

Sanjay - Best Driver in India

Creative India planned a good trip for us. We were able to see all of the main attractions as we spent the week travelling the golden triangle. We were really fortunate to have a fantastic driver in Sanjay. He was always really positive and helpful. He would always arrive on time and help us carry our bags and ensure we were comfortable in the car. We felt really safe in Sanjay’s car and company. He would always offer his time and services, even on an evening when he should be resting. Sanjay was also better than some of our tour guides at pointing out local landmarks and providing information around the culture and history of India. He was very flexible and allowed us to take detours and adjust timings to ensure we could see and visit everything that we wanted on the trip. Sanjay made this experience the best it could have been. Note: He loves a Fruitella sweet!

Creative India wonderful experience

Manish Jain tour operator easy to access and obliging, no request is too difficult. Maharaj Singh driver trustworthy and dependable. City tours :Chetan Delhi enthusiasts; Hussein Agra passionate with knowldge of an historian; Faterpur Shikri Kumar, Jaipur Sharma humorous. Most glad of my choice to see amazing India with this group. We will be using their services in future. Highly recommend. Thank you

Great tour!

Great tour that allows you to see everything you need to see in Delhi - Agra - Jaipur. Thanks to good guides & great driver Raju!

Very exciting private trip with many interesting places visited

Very well organized trip. In short time we managed to visit a lot of beautiful places. All the guides during the trip were professional and gave us interesting information not only for the sightseeings but also for the history and traditions in India. Special thanks to our driver Manish Kumar, who made us feel very safe and was taking care of us during the whole trip. Without his support, it would not have been possible to visit so many places in such a short time!

Creative India helped me enjoy a low-stress India trip

The driver, Manish, and guides Manoj, Hassan, Kaseem, and Lajesh (spelling? And I'm sorry if I've forgotten someone), and the naturalists at Ranthambhore National Park too, ALL, to a person, made me feel secure on this trip. Manish heroically drove me the many miles of the Triangle, dodging cows and scooters deftly along the way, and making calls to figure out all the wheres and whens on this complicated trip. I'm an experienced traveler but India is not for the faint of heart, and all the employees and contracted people working with Creative India did everything they could to help make everything beautiful and (relatively-- it IS India) easy. Doing it on my own would have taken many extra hours just trying to work things out. The hotels were acceptable. In some cases not quite 4-star by Western ideals. But fine. In one case I had to pay for a banquet dinner that I did not really want. At that point I was tired and just needed rest. BUT Creative India really made a complex itinerary seem pretty simple.

Fantastic Experience!

This tour was fantastic! We were able to see a lot of the significant monuments and art forms specific to each area within such a short amount of time. Having a personal driver made getting around so safe and easy. Our driver Sanjay was fantastic! He was easy to contact any time we required transport outside of the regular tour times, drove very well and was always early to meet us with a lovely air conditioned car. Our tour guides (Prasanth - Delhi, Hussain - Agra and Mukesh - Jaipur) were all very kind, knowledgeable and took great pictures in their own unique spots. The one improvement we could suggest is to add a wider variety of local restaurants to the list, for those days you may not want a hotel dinner. Whilst they were safe to eat from, they were often filled with tourists and the food was not as good as some smaller places we were recommended by friends. We would definitely recommend this tour for anyone that wants a comfortable trip with everything arranged for you.

Manish and Guarav are the best for golden triangle!!

Gaurav was an amazing and fun tour guide. He had an excellent knowledge on the history of Jaipur with a real enthusiasm. He helped with local market and finding us the best price and option which was so helpful. Manish is a really polite and friendly driver throughout our trip who was so adaptable to our needs. Would highly highly recommend both of them if you’re doing the golden triangle tour!!

Great family trip

My family of four (15 and 17 year old teens) just returned from a 6 days Golden Triangle Tour. We started the tour in Jaipur at my suggestion, as we had just come from visiting family in Mumbai. We were received in the airport by our wonderful driver Mr. Maharaj Singh. We were in good hands with him from the beginning. He was very calm, kind, and an excellent driver. Every day of the tour was well thought out and we were shown a variety of amazing forts/palaces/monuments, as well as interesting handicraft and art/jewelry venues which showcased Indian culture. We did buy some good souvenirs. We were given a new guide in every city, and each guide was knowledgeable and spoke good English. Mr. Manish Jain was in communication with me from the beginning, when I first reached out to him on initial inquiry from the US. We met with him briefly in Agra to pay our remaining 25% balance which was easy to do electronically on our phone. The company was open to whatever suggestions I had, and I deleted a fort from the schedule in Jaipur and requested an elephant sanctuary instead. They took us to Elesafari which was great. We did pay extra for this (used our credit card there) and negotiated a family price. Highly recommend, and made for great lifetime memories as well as a worthwhile donation to the sanctuary. I would not hesitate to use this company again on our next trip to India. Please know that as entrances and tips to guides/driver not included, I would plan on getting an extra $200 to $300 worth of Rupees from the ATM (we used HDFC). All tourist entrances for our family were Rs 600 each except the Taj Mahal which was Rs 1300 each (also cash only). For Qutub Minar in Dehli we were able to use our credit card and got a discount for Rs 550 each. Still, this company had the best prices by far from others I contacted, even including needing to pay entrances and tips. Book with them, you will not regret it!

Trip of Wonder and Amazing Experiences with Creative Tours.

The whole trip was simply wonderful from the 2 day tour of Delhi then Jaipur and Agra. The highlight was Taj Mahal. Accommodation was top class and driver was always early and safe, did have a few problems with understanding Guides at times. I would highly recommend this company and Manish was so pleasant and helpful and tour was very good value.

India travel made super easy!

What a wonderful experience we had for our first ever visit to India. Everything was efficiently coordinated by Manish (of Creative India Holidays) from our first pickup from Delhi airport to our final drop off for our departure. We were never left waiting or wondering when we would be picked up. We had a private tour that took in sights in Delhi, Amritsar, Agra and Jaipur. Many thanks to our guides for each of these cities - Suraj Prakash in Delhi, Jitendar Singh in Amritsar, Abdul Qadir in Agra and Vipin in Jaipur. Their in depth knowledge and experience ensured that each site we visited was something special. There’s nothing quite like having your own personal guide to give you those little bits of info and pointing out special items of interest that you just can’t get from a guide book. Special mention has to be made of our driver Maharaj. He was there to collect us from the airport when we arrived, take us to our hotel, get us to the train station for our trip to Amritsar and pick us up when we returned. From there Maharaj drove us not only for our site seeing in Delhi but also drove us to Agra and Jaipur and all the sites in those cities. That’s a lot of driving! All done with a smile and happy to answer any questions we had. If you’re looking for an easy experience in a country that can at times be quite challenging we would highly recommend you get in touch with the team at Creative India Holidays. They did a great job helping us put together a holiday tailored to our needs.

India Golden Triangle Summer vacation. Amazing

7 day golden triangle trip July 2022. For both of us it was our first time in India and it will not be our last. This was largely due to the well planned trip by Manish and his team at Creative India. The trip was well planned and well priced. Our trip was 7 days of fun, history, art and culture. Nothing was too much trouble. From the moment we arrived we were greated by our driver Maharaj Singh, who for the whole trip made us feel immediately welcome and safe. It was monsoon season which added beauty to the lush landscape. The contrast of the gorgeous greenery of the gardens was picture perfect against the stunning facade of everywhere we vusited especially the Amber palace. The tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly. We would like to give a special mention to our first guide Suraj who opened our eyes to the beauty and history of Delhi. Thank you again to Manish and his team! It really was a trip we will never forget.

Amazing tour

My wife and I travelled 8 days in India (Golden Triangle Tour) with Creative India Holidays. Great oragnised trip, amazing hotels, comfortable SUV as well as very professional and friendly staff: drivers, tour guides. We would always book through Creative India holidays again. Thank you for the wonderful time. Greetings from Germany

North Indian Tour

Fantastic tour with very knowledgeable guides. The tour made traveling easy and comfortable. Our driver, Rakesh, was incredibly good at navigating the areas and making suggestions. He was also incredibly throughtful, genuine, and kind- he really made our trip. Thank you Rakesh <3

Wonderful Highlights of North India

We had a really lovely time exploring north India! We had an excellent driver, Rakesh. He was so kind and informative. He could navigate the busy busy streets with ease! I would definitely recommend him. Overall, it was a really insightful tour... We saw the marvelous sights of India, but also got valuable perspective of how the people live and the culture. It was well worth the trip!

Definitely recommended!

I actually booked an 8-night "Golden Triangle" package (Delhi-Agra-Jaipur) through Creative India Holidays and absolutely loved it! Definitely recommend taking the extra time so that you can see more of the sights and not be so rushed... My guides Suraj (Delhi), Neeraj (Agra), and Gaurav (Jaipur) were all very friendly, well informed, and eager to share their knowledge. All provided detailed explanations in clear English, spanning history, culture, customs, politics, etc. And my driver, Raj, was also just super. I'm an amateur photography and they particularly went out of their way to help ensure I could get some good pictures.

Outstanding

Where to start, this was the best experience both myself and my wife have ever had. Start with big shout out to Madan Kumar our driver he did everything we asked for and more. Also the best guide ever Pritite in Jaipur what outstanding knowledge. We are elderly and the pace was just right with so many palaces and forts. Justified in getting us up before dawn to see the Taj. The cycle rickshaw through the market in Delhi was also an amazing experience. Manish Jain did a great job in helping also with detailed planning. These guys are top notch, highly recommend and a great price

1 Week in India.

Really great trip, seeing all the sites. Felt safe at all times even in the crazy traffic. Restaurants & hotels were all fantastic. Very easy to orginise using whatsapp. Really enjoyed our first time to India. Our driver Mahendar was our favourite, great chats during our long drives. A really Credit to the business, I wouldn't want anyone else to steer us around the craziness of India! I hope to meet again. Kyle & Elysha. Australia.

A memorable trip and so many beautiful sites visited

What a wonderful experience! Everything was taken care of for us. Manish ji communicated everything very clearly right from the inquiry to the end of the trip. He helped us customize our trip and provided us with the best driver and guides along the way!!! I’d highly recommend the Chandni Chowk experience through Parathewali galli. Big thanks to Surajji, Husseinji and Mukeshji for walking us through the rich history of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. But the star of our trip was Rakeshji who drove us around for 6 days. Excellent driving, took us everywhere on time, made sure we are comfortable with everything…. So thankful to him and everyone who made this trip a memorable one!!! It was 6 days of absolute fun. More details about our trip: - We took the 3 star deluxe package with a customization for 4star in Delhi. It was good, but if I had a budget, I’d do a 4star - We added Chandni Chowk experience additionally for half a day and Abhaneri Baoli en route Jaipur (additional 20 mins added to the trip) - Elephant ride was included in our trip - Tolls, breakfast and allowances were included in the trip, but we additionally tipped the guides and drivers per day (not mandatory) - We shopped where needed and asked not to take us to stores where not required - Kept loose change handy for tips and tickets - Whenever we had questions, we immediately texted Manishji and he would provide more info - We went to Dilli Haat (not Delhi Haat) and had an excellent shopping experience - We did not find any Taj Mahal souvenirs. There were golden colored and crystal miniatures but none in white. Plan your souvenir ideas ahead - We drank lots of lassi at every stop. It’s the finest we’ve ever had - People were absolutely nice everywhere. So I encourage you to immerse in the experience and rely on your guide and/or driver - Had Whatsapp handy for communication

Unique Golden Triangle Journey

It was a really good trip, well worth the money spent. Our driver was very experienced and friendly. The tour guides were knowledgeable and gave very useful historical information on the tourist attractions.

A trip of a Lifetime

What a wonderful trip! I did a private 6 day Golden Triangle Tour and it was a fantastic trip from day 1 to day 6. I was a solo female traveler. The tour was completely customizable in every city, great hotels, great tour guides (who also took amazing pictures), and an excellent driver! Don't think about booking a tour with Creative India Holiday just do it! You will not regret your trip and have wonderful memories to cherish forever!

Golden Triangle with Creative India Holidays

Our trip was decides and organized in just 3 days. Creative India Holidays gave us an amazing support. Everything well organized as promised. We did not have any dissatisfaction at all. The driver super good too. I highly recommend this agency. The golden triangle is a very good trip for those like us, doing your first trip to India. Everything very interesting and beautiful. And Taj Mahal… just this visit worth the trip!

Excellent Experience

I planned a 6 days golden triangle tour with my parents from the creative india holidays, the trip was fantastic, and they had a great trip, thanks to the tour organizer Mr. Manish Jain's well-planned itinerary where we enjoyed many beautiful places in Delhi, Agra And Jaipur with our tour guides Dilip, Neeraj, and Madan respectively was very kind. We would also want to acknowledge the friendliness of the tour guides and especially the driver, Mr. Vijay, who at best is communicative, polite and also very punctual. Above all, we were delighted with this company and tour and surely will recommend this to our friends.

Golden triangle tour

Went for a 5 day Golden triangle tour (day 6 early departure). Given Mr Manish Jain a skeleton itinerary (which city on which day), he then planned the sights. He covered the main or must see sights. The itinerary is supposed to be customisable on the day with the guide, but the guides generally were reluctant to deviate from what Manish put down in the itinerary. They also have this annoying tendency to bring you to the souvenir/arts and craft shops, even though one may not be actually keen to spend time there, and on one occasion one guide didn't even tell me he was bringing me to a shop! They should also be aware these shops often ask for ridiculously high prices for one to hard bargain, yet they still bring you there. Otherwise the guides were in general knowledgable and helpful in taking photos, the driver Mr Prahlad was nice. In summary, Main Plus- relatively value for money to cover the main sights of the Golden Triangle Main Minus- the visits to arts & crafts shops (consider having an agreement with Mr Manish beforehand if you have no interest in shopping or visiting these shops)

Golden Triangle Tour

Our Golden Triangle tour was just excellent.. Manish Jain changed our itinerary according to our wishes. Tour was well arranged and all went smoothly He responded quickly to emails. Hotels in Delhi and Jaipur were good. Hotel in Agra (Jaypee Palace) exceeded all expectations. The local guides at each destination were polite, friendly and professionals. President Trump’s visit in Agra “messed up” a little bit Agra’s program, but local guide handled the situation just fine and we visited all agreed places. Our driver Mr Lakshmi was super good, polite and friendly. He arrived at the agreed places at exactly the right time. He was very good and safe driver

A wonderful trip to remember

I would highly recommend Creative India Holidays. We travelled in India last Feb 22 and we did the Golden Triangle Tour. I have my tailored itinerary and Mr Manish was very helpful and flexible with the places I want to visit. When we arrived in Delhi our driver is there waiting for us. I cannot thank them enough for having a hassle free trip in India. Our driver Rinku is very knowledgeable and very nice driver. Mr Manish is always available through whatsapp whenever we have some queries and amendments. The tour guides are nice and knowledgeable. We are so happy with the service and will definitely recommend Creative India Holidays to our friends and families.

Unforgettable Vacation!

Manish Jain is such reliable, helpful and trustworthy. We had such a wonderful time in the golden triangle thanks to the best driver, Rakesh and all our tour guides. I highly recommend getting your tour of India with Creative India Holidays!

7D/8N well organized and good value Golden Triangle tour

I contacted Mr Manish via Tripadvisor and arranged a 7 day/8 night private tour for 2 people. He quickly reverted with an agenda,hotel option, and prices. We selected the 'luxury hotel' option and the hotel bookings were confirmed to us within a week. Indeed, everything was organized well and we had a guide in each of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur which added to the experience. The guides know the times to avoid the crowds and the spots for the best photo's. We were also able to adapat the itenary and adding an elephant sanctuary in Jaipur. Mr Sunny, our guide in Jaipur was funny and knowlegable. The driver, Mr Rakesh, was excellent, very reliable and safe. We were bored of the hotel restaurants and between the guide and Mr Rakesh, they arranged and drove us out to eat out in more local settings. A very good tour and good value.

Well worth it

In order to be fair, I've to split the review in to 2 aspects: Booking: The part that didn't go so well. For a price of USD.561 per person (for hotels only in Delhi & Agra + transportation for 6 days), the expectation was to have the same nice hotels as advertised by the company. However, the hotels were changed arbitrarily without seeking my consent. Upon making it know this was not nice on their part, I was informed in a slightly patronising tone to trust them. Obviously I didn't agree, reluctantly agreeing to their suggestion in Delhi, having to scramble to book a hotel in Jaipur on my own at the last minute. Tour Experience: This was the part that went well the most part. We had a great tour Guide Naresh in Delhi. He had an absolute wealth of knowledge about both the history of Delhi and its rulers goign all the way back to the 12th century! He was always eager to answer our questions and be patient with our schedule. The tour guide Alka in Agra was knowledgeable and made the Taj Mahal experience a special one. After having had such a good experience in Delhi and Agra, it was disappointing to note that the guide in Jaipur was not the most suited for his job. We felt rushed at all locations and his explanation about the monuments were not so articulate. Transportation: This was a great experience getting to know our Chauffeur Rakesh who always made sure we were safe. He also a lot of smaller insights that the tour guides or the internet will never be able to offer. His driving was super safe amidst all the chaos unfolding in the roads. I felt the entire tour experience was somehow made even more special by Rakesh.

Perfect first time India experience.

While planning our trip to India we contacted several tour agencies for information and prices. We ended up choosing Creative India Holidays not only for the reasonable price but also for the perfect communication and flexibility. Mr. Manish answer all our questions immediately via Whatsapp (does he sleep?) and was very patient with our questions and demands. We ended up booking our hotels directly and booked the 6 nights Golden Triangle Tour with driver and tour guides. Everything went smoothly, From our Airport Pickup by the amazing driver Mr. Gopal to all transfer and guides. Mr. Singh was our guide in Delhi. Very knowlegable and patient. Very good english but sometimes the accent makes it difficult to understand every word. There's alot to see in Delhi for one day so mind your time and insist that you want to see everything that is included in the tour. Next stop was Agra and with that came the highlight of our tour with Creative. Ajmal, our tour guide. Agra was a dream and Ajmal only made it better. Perfect english, photographic skills, patient and an enciclopedia of knowledge. If you book with Creative you have to ask for Ajmal. [If you are reading this thank you so much Ajmal. We will wait for the wedding invitations ;) ] On our way to Jaipur we stopped at Fatehpur Sikri. Our guide, Mr. Kaleem, althought very friendly and joyful didn't always did his best to help us with all the sellers and beggars and "made" us stop for some time at a souvenir store. At Jaipur our guide was Kumar. Very good english but again the accent was a trouble for us sometimes. At times we felt rushed. Stops at two souvenir stores. One would have been enough. We would have prefered restaurants a little bit more "traditional" but understand that the main concern was our hygiene and safeness. In short, we were very happy with our experience and would definitely recommend Creative India Holidays if you are planning a trip to India. I've read some other reviews complaining about extra charges at the end of the tour. We had no trouble with that, Just be sure to ask all the details regarding payment before you book and everything should be ok. In conclusion, with Mr. Manish fast and flexible communication, Mr. Gopal efficiency behind the wheel and Ajmal guide skills you can't go wrong.

6 nights golden triangle

Excellent trip, Mr rakesh was very good driver and always helpful in nature, mr minesh organized all the activity very well.

Very well organized tour. Very reliable. Value for your money.

Being an Indian, I was very skeptical initially if I can trust this tour agency. But it turned out to be the most reliable agency. I am glad that I chose Creative India Holidays for our tour. Very friendly driver and guides. Gives you lots of advise for international travelers so you can enjoy the trip. Manish is also Superb, he is very well organized and communicates with you with immediately. I will strongly recommend Creative India Holidays for anybody traveling from the USA.

Trip to India

It’s like 24/7 mr Manish standby for reply all my WhatsApp All guides were greats Driver was good All the time was flexible

Amazing Trip with Creative India Holiday

I've done trips to India with Creative India Holidays for several times and always recommend this tour to some of my friends. If there was small thing unpleasant happened during our trip, Manish and his team were always ready to help and all I need to do was called him or texted him, and he is always on fast response. This tour was great and Manish is definitely someone you can rely on during your trip in India.

Incredible Creative Holidays and India

Nothing, just very good expejourneyMr Manish good and fast response for what i want asking about everything. All tour guide is good, especially Mr. Sodhi. He is very good and know well about history.Hotel(4* in Delhi and Agra, 5* in Jaipur) food very nice. Especially thanks for Mr Bunty Singh is our driver as long as we there. Make it us safe in our journey. See you when i see you, India

Amazing India!!! What a Wonderful Experience. Peter & Cheryl Australia

Everything was so organised and easy. Our driver Satya was very patient and helpful particularly with Peter who has mobility problems. His driving was fantastic and we felt perfectly safe the whole time we were travelling in the car. Thank you so much Satya for making our holiday so memorable. Our guides were also excellent and very knowledgeable. Although one of our motels was a little disappointing the others were really good. This tour was great value for the money and we would certainly recommend it to anyone. Thank you Manish.

Customized Golden Triangle tour was perfect!

I found Creative India Holidays on TripAdvisor after a fruitless search for a custom trip to India. All the big tour companies had things I didn't like or skipped important sites. Manish (pronounced Maneesh) was so agreeable to our list of must haves! We wanted the best hotels... check. We wanted to see a custom list of sites in the Golden Triangle but also wanted to leave time open for additions to the schedule... check. No problem making changes even after the tour is booked. Manish walked me through the Visa process, the customs, and so much more. Every step of the way he made this trip a pleasure. I have to say I was a bit apprehensive as we arrived at Delhi airport, hoping we hadn't made a mistake... but even when our flight was delayed and arrived at 2 am, our faithful driver Mehender was waiting. For the next 9 days, Mehender was there- ready to take us anywhere we wanted to go. Each day we toured the sites, Manish arranged an English speaking guide that explained every question we had. The van was air conditioned and comfortable. The arrangements were made without a problem, and the stress of travelling evaporated. I heartily recommend using Creative India Holidays for your trip to India. They go the extra mile and are so easy to work with. Unlike the large tour companies, we didn't hear one 'no' to a request we made! India is so special. The people are so friendly and happy. The country is so beautiful. The trip ahead of you is life changing. You will not be sorry trusting Creative India Holidays with the arrangements. Focus on spending your time enjoying India and leave the details to the team Manish has put together.

Very Reliable and Carefree Trip organized by Mr. Manish Jain

We used Creative couple years ago, when my daughter wanted to visit India with her American friend. Mr. Manish Jain, organized everything for her and the group. As part of recent two month spent in India, we've just returned from an amazing one week driving triangle tour across Rajasthan/Delhi. Mr. Jain, who over a period of weeks, helped us plan a wonderful, personalized tour of the fascinating states. With his professional and thorough manner, he ensured that all details were anticipated and planned for. He is excellent at what he does! The suggested hotels - and you can choose from a wonderful selection of properties - were as advertised and all local guides polite, well spoken and highly knowledgeable. But the what really made the tour for us was our excellent driver, Mr. Sharma. He is a patient, helpful, resourceful, and very personable young man whose care and skill behind the wheel of the air conditioned car provided by Creative made us feel safe and relaxed during our 1000+ km tour. If you are considering planning a trip to incredible India, we highly recommend that you contact Mr. Manish Jain.. Truly an excellent company! If driving is part of your plan, then we advise that you request the incomparable Mr. Sharma. Thank you, Mr. Jain !

Had a great time. Very well organized. Worth Every Penny.

Great planning and executing by Manish and his team. From the time picking up from the Delhi airport and dropping back to the airport was all taken care off. I did not had to worry. Being a native Indian, born and bought up from that part of India i could have organized the whole trip myself and most probably would have saved few bucks but i don't think i would have been able to do it that well as Manish had it planned. From choosing the restaurants and the places to stop everything was made sure it was hygienic and was planned ahead. Few tips i will recommend is: 1. Make sure to have an active cell phone working. 2. The Guides will take you to shopping places which are pre-planned as they get commissions. Some of them were good and some of them were Ok. Nothing wrong with that if you are not sure. We did buy a lot of stuff in Agra from one of shop suggested by the guide and they were all good. So If you are interested in shopping then you can listen to them or else tell them to skip the shopping places as that does take up time. 3. Tip your driver well and he will take care of you. A $10-15 tip a day will go a long while. 4. Be adamant on seeing a place if it is on your itinerary and don't always listen to the guide. For e.g. the Ajmer fort ride by elephant is a must do and i was told to skip it as there are chances of falling down. BS!!! Yes there are chances, but the elephant ride was wonderful. 5. Spend a lot of time in Taj Mahal. You will need around 4 to 5 hours to see to whole thing and during winter time go there are after noon as it is clouded by fog. Also get the express ticket in Taj Mahal so that you can skip the lines, it is worth the money. If you like photography then make a deal with the local photographers and have them take some nice shots. I won't spent more than $30-40 bucks though. Also videography is not permitted and do not take videos as i saw people getting into trouble for that. 6. Overall the Taj Mahal was the best part of the trip. I have been there 4 times and it still makes me say wow. 7. Apply basic common sense and be safe. Finally ...I will highly recommend Manish and his team for arranging the whole trip. The nice thing was the trip could be planned as per my requirements and what I wanted to see. His prices were fine and the tour vehicle was nice and clean. The driver was very courteous and respectful. I read some complaints about Manish not being responsive after the 1st deposit was taken. I think it is more anxiety after paying money to a unknown person across the world. But after seeing his business and meeting him personally – he is a good businessman. So nothing to worry. I would recommend that the best way to keep in touch with him is by using Whatsapp. He would get back to me if there was any questions. Also during the trip I had some issues with billing at my hotel and he responded right away and took care of the issue. So overall 5 star customer service. But remember to have him on Whatsapp and use that for communication. India is big time on whatsapp. Our driver Rakesh was very nice and was very helpful. He was always on time and available by phone. Overall had a great fun trip, I have already recommended him to few of my friends and will look forward to use him for my next trip to Rajasthan only.

Creative and beyond

All the pre-arrival arrangements were simple, essential I left this all to Manish and this was as easy for me as it gets. We were picked up by our fantastic driver, Sanjay, at 1am and he always made sure we were exactly where we were supposed to be at all times. He was flexible and great with our 4 year old daughter (she was sad to leave him!). The trip was executed perfectly, exactly as ordered. Our guides were all extremely knowledgeable and even gave us glimpses of the Taj Mahal that seemed private and personal amongst the crowds. Unreservedly recommended including the train journey that we made between Delhi and Agra.

Trip of lifetime

We decided to add an indian tour on to a cruise to middle east, as we were so close. I was considering Gate1 tours but this company popped up in tripadvisor.(creativeindiaholidays) I contacted Manish, who was very efficient at replying with tour itinerary and price. He also gave emails of some previous clients to contact which helped me to book the tour. We were met by our driver, Mr Satya, at Delhi airport and the tour continued to be well planned. He was an excellent driver who looked after us with much care. The hotels were very good (5 star), the local guides were great, and the whole trip was amazing. I'm sure that having a car, driver and local guide made the trip so much better than being in a coach with many others.

Wonderfully Planned, Everything was about perfect.

I found creative India holidays online and emailed Manish Jain for a Golden Triangle quote for 4 pax including my 2 year old son. Manish promptly took care of all the details and was very flexible with our requirements. We paid almost 50% package cost in advance and rest of the amount was paid during the trip. Our trip was for 5 nights 6 days (4 Star hotel package). The trip included a tour guide at each city ( Delhi Jaipur and Agra) with Rakesh as our driver in a brand new Toyota Innova. Everything was perfect, hotels were well provided with all things taken care. we choose ITC Welcome (Delhi), Sheraton (Agra) & Ramada (Jaipur). Overall Driver Rakesh was nice and safe at driving however during the last day when we mentioned of visiting Chokhi dhani village resort in evening, he kinda refused indirectly and kept saying we won’t enjoy and it’s not worth to visit place and other negative stuff however I ignored all his request and had to call Manish for our request which he agreed but we had to pay 1000 rupees just for 20 kilometre ride. Upon visiting it turned out to be the highlight of our trip to Jaipur. Overall everything was perfect, Manish was always available for any hassle or issue and we still liked our driver and we also gave him a handsome tip at the end of our trip. I would recommend Creative India tours.

Couldn't Ask For A Better Service

Greetings from Indonesia! We took the Golden triangle Tour with Creative India Tour. Manish is a very helpful guy. He is always available whenever I have anything to ask. The tour itself has a very entertaining itinerary that covers everything we need to see at these 3 cities. We will definitely be back again in the future to do the full Rajashtan Tour with you, Manish.

Our Magical Honeymoon

Hi Greetings from Indonesia, We Spent 6 Days in India with Creative India for The Golden Triangle Tour. We booked a trip From Delhi, Jaipur, and Agra. The Driver (Mr. Gopal Singh) it’s very friendly driver. He thought us about The History of every place we’ve been. We stop in every diligent rest area with full Air Conditioner (like Muskan Midway) Nothing was problem to him. Most of our guides were really interested in showing us their country. They told everything precisely and very detail. They showing us a good shops for souvenir, but the most of it is in Agra, The name of the shop is Handicrafts Gallery, cause I found my Indian Musical Instrument ( The Sitar 😁). The foods in each city was very good and tasty (unfortunately me and my wife were like India foods so much). Mr. Manish the tour manager was quickly respond when I asked about everything, we met at the end of the trip in Agra, he was so kind and friendly. Hope to booked another trip (Udaipur, Jodphur, etc) with Creative India and of course with Mr. Gopal Singh as the Driver. Thank you for make our Honeymoon so memorable, Best Regards, Bayu & Azka

Excellente agence

Manish a été réactif dans la programmation des visites. Il a fourni des chauffeurs et des guides dans 3 villes différentes. Pas de retards, pas d’erreurs. Il nous a assisté à chaque étape du tour. Les chauffeurs et guides étaient agréables, surtout Manvendra qui était totalement disponible. Je conseille cette agence.
