Booking tour in Golden Triangle
My husband and I are planning a short land package in India's Golden Triangle.
Four-Five nights Delhi-Jaipur-Agra.
Luxury hotels
We are considering using one of 2 tour agencies:
Elegant Journeys
Castle and King
Both seem to have good reviews but we would like further confirmation.
Can someone tell me if these are both reputable companies?
Especially want to hear from someone who has used these.

One of the regulars here, rhkkmk, has used Castle and King and has recommended them to others. You can do an advanced search(click on it below the search box), have them search titles and replies for Castle and King and you'll find Bob's comments and many others as well.

I have used castle and king twice and have referred many people to them. I am 120% thrilled with everything avrind has done for me..
I am concerned with 4-5 days and 3 cities.. I suggest delhi and agra only.

We were in India for a month June/July 2013. We did not use either of the above companies, but I wanted to recommend Lucy at Banyon Tours. We were really pleased with ALL aspects of the company. Our journey was amazing. I found Banyon through a recommendation from Conde Nast. Banyon was also recommended in an old special edition about India from Departures magazine. Our driver from Delhi-Agra-Jaipur-Udaipur was extremely competent so much so, we still miss him driving us. Our hotels were absolutely amazing. I could go on and on......
I agree with rhkkmk, concerned about 4-5 days for 3 cities.

Anohter person to consider is Mr. VP Singh at www.legendsandpalaces.com. His trip advisor reviews are very good and I recently accepted a price from him for atour for our upcoming trip. Then he reduced the price by 25% d/t the rising dollar value. The thing is I would have never known. he surely did not have to do that.
