We have visited all the prominent placed known for royal bengal tiger but we loved the most Ranthambhore National park (because there we saw tiger 2 times ;). Jhalana safari is not so worthy as it is still not fully prepared and lack the proper facilities and maintenance. Overall a good trip. Thanks to Team MTA

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour to rajasthan with Udaipur Jodhpur and Jaisalmer. We learned so much about the history of india, as well as the culture, tradition and architecture of Rajasthan. Our guide was fantastic! He was very patient and extremely knowledgeable. The tour was very well organised. I would definitely recommend this company. We had an amazing time!

Thank you for the wonderful Kerala tour and I would just like to say it was one of the best vacations we have had. You planned our holiday perfectly and took care of everything including all the special requests we asked for. Our driver was a very friendly and knowledgeable guy who really went out of his way to help us enjoy our trip even more. He took us sightseeing to amazing locations that were not on our itinerary but which he knew we would enjoy. The management at all the hotels made sure everything was perfect during our stay and they helped us with directions when visiting local attractions. My favourite meal was the lunch we had at that very small hotel near Marari Beach !
