"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your staff for making my "first" trip to India so memorable. All the arrangements which were made were just perfect l. The tours, guides and hotels were the best I have experienced on any tour that I have been on. From the moment I stepped off the plane in Delhi where I was met and given the cell phone for contacts to the time I was taken on my last day in Delhi to the airport for my return flight everything was handled perfectly. In each area that I was in there was a concerned informed guide who made this trip special. You guides in each area were first class and very professional. Your staff of concierges in each area was most helpful and friendly. I really received a wonderful insight of Indian hospitality from you and want to thank you for making my trip so special.
Thank you again for showing me the "best" of your country."

All our friends and family here are anxious to do the same trip so don't be surprised if you get contacted for more trips, weather permitted. India as we saw is at last coming to its great place as a great economy and a unique culture. Thanks again and inshallah we well do more trips together in the future."

"I must express my thanks and gratitude to all those who made our trip a dream venture, a comfortable journey and a successful trip. Traveling in India the way my niece planned it was not easy for me to imagine. We have traveled by plane, train and bus and visited cultural, historical and religious sites. I even went into a tiger safari and took an elephant ride. All went well thanks to all the nice guides that gave us the confidence that we are in good hands. Also thanks to the drivers who were careful and polite. I really enjoyed being in India with my family. I really extend my thanks to my niece Miss Shanshal to Miss Geetanjali and all those who made our trip unique in many ways. The best thing I learned from India is that I have now many new questions about the world and myself. India changes something inside those who take things for granted.
Thanks for all and for Luxe India"

"We are still under the impact of our short visit to India. Everyone was so kind and helpful to us that turned our beautiful trip into an unforgettable one. I heard so many interesting stories about India from our people at Globo, that I had high expectations. But you managed to surpassed them.
No wonder that our production "Caminho das Indias" was such a great success in Brazilian television, with the help of people like you (Luxe India), Rohit and your colleagues, it could be nothing less. Thank you very much for everything. We hope to come back."

"To Everyone at Luxe India,
"Returned from India 3 weeks ago. We travel to India, once or twice a year, on business. This time, we were venturing to new territory, Kolkata. A travel web site, suggested we should contact Luxe India for assistance in organizing this portion of our trip. Everyone at Luxe was extremely helpful, friendly, and sensitive to our needs... we needed to make some changes to the itinerary. My initial sense was that Luxe India primarily caters to the first-time visitor to India~ where the itinerary is set from beginning to end. We posed a challenge! We are veteran travelers in India, and had unexpected needs. The challenge that we posed, was, in reasonable time, met with graciousness and understanding.
In sum, we were thoroughly impressed by the flexibility and professionalism demonstrated by the entire Luxe India staff. Thank you for providing a steady anchor for us, during our visit. While moving around independently throughout India, it was comforting to know that you were there for us, to make necessary arrangements. We look forward to referring others to you."

"I returned home yesterday from the best trip I've ever had in 33 years of travel to 44 countries. Vijay...It was a pleasure to meet you and have such an enjoyable and delicious dinner with you and your charming family at the Barbecue Nation. My sincere thank you and kudos to all of your excellent staff who took the very best care of me while traveling and enjoying "Incredible India." The properties were all wonderful, and it was particularly interesting to stay at the palaces.... Samode Haveli and Deogarh Mahal. The concierges and guides at each location were excellent. I still dream of that 24 hour dahl and of all the other luxurious flavors I experienced at the restaurants and hotels during the trip. My driver was not only a wonderful driver, companion, and guide, but also provided a constant thread in the trip. Mythical, mystical, and magical, India is my new favorite place.
Thanks again for the superlative job by everyone, and I hope we can send you some good business and referrals."

We had the most wonderful tour of South India UNESCO tour thanks to the high level of professionalism and personalized services offered by all the lovely staff at Luxe India.
We were so impressed by such high standards of services and VIP treatment everywhere by everyone.
I travel over a dozen trips a year and have been to over 250 UNESCO sites in over 150 countries and have gone on many tours before. I can highly recommend Luxe Tours as the best tour operator!
Thank you for all the great personalized services we received everywhere and the 24/7 Concierge service. I liked the Preferences survey and cell phone use.
The personalized travel itinerary book was excellent and so professionally done.I have never had a tour operator make such a beautiful unique book for me before. Everything was so well arranged from the special tailor made itinerary, unique hotels, wonderful tour guides and drivers, and all the Concierges and Luxe agents we met.

You have such fantastically high level of services and caring for the tourists. It was so nice of Luxe to arrange a hotel room when our flight was delayed in Trichy although it was not your fault for the airline delay.
You and all the Concierge were so prompt to answer our inquiries. We enjoyed the visit to the orphanage in Pondicherry when the one in Hampi was not nearby. The fortune teller in Badami was very good.
We had the most enjoyable and fabulous trip to India due to Luxe's most professional and outstanding persnalized services.
I will recommend Luxe to everyone.Thank you for ensuring a wonderful unique trip for us to these UNESCO sites.
All the best wishes.

We've had a wonderful holiday in India. Everywhere we've visited have had its special magic- a highlight would be seeing the Ranthambore tigers. We were so lucky. We appreciate all the extra touches from Luxe India, especially you Vineet. They've made this a hassle free trip. We return to quiet New Zealand with very happy memories. Many Thanks!

We would appreciate to express all our gratitude and recognition for all the help and support to her during Jessica's stay in India. She was a little worried at the time of her arrival in Delhi, in the beginning of the trip, but after some days she already get used with almost everything and was able to be more calm. She loved very much the trip, the courses, the way of life, the people of India and for sure she (and maybe us...) will be back more times to India. I intend to give your site on the internet if somebody asks for some directions, because of her stay there, I have no doubt.
We do not know how to express in words all your help and kindness about her. She said the persons during the transfers and particularly during the train trips was invaluable. You made all eforts possible to facilitate her journey there, and this is priceless !!!

"I just finished guiding two groups in North India using Luxe India as my local operator and I would like to commend the services that I received as whole and in special from Mr. Pawan from the Delhi Office. After 20 years working in as a tour operator and as a guide and have worked with many local operators I am well qualified to judge the services provided by them and by their employees. I couldn't be happier with the services, attention, care and professionalism that I received from Mr. Pawan and his staff in Delhi , Jaipur, Agra , Kajuraho and Varanasi. The system of well qualified butlers in every city provides an invaluable help for the guide and tranquility for the clients. As an example, one of my clients had a medical problem and on arrival in Jaipur there was a doctor waiting at the hotel who personally took care of her so that I could keep my program with the rest of the group. This was arranged by Mr. Pawan and the Jaipur representative.
Regarding the recent events in Mumbai, I felt that it didn't affect my trips in any way. There were more security measures in hotels and monuments but other than that I felt that the situation was quite normal. I didn't feel unsafe in any way and my clients didn't feel, in the end of their trip, that was a dangerous place. I am quite happy to continuing bringing clients to this wonderful tourist destination." |

"Our journey in India was very successful and will stay in our minds for quite a long time. Thanks a lot to you and to the Cochin office for the professional officering and all the care you showed following my wound. I have now completely recovered.
My favourite places were Kumarakom, Madurai, the road to Munnar, Munnar and its surroundings (a paradise on earth), Kabini and Fort Cochin. In Conoor, we finally had a very nice dinner evening (Italian food and excellent Indian singer), we enjoyed it a lot and forgot our first impression. It's a fact that the resort itself was beautiful but offered little opportunities to see things outside the place. In addition when we arrived the weather was cooler.
Special remark concerning the people of South India: they are really smily, open and friendly everywhere. We enjoyed it a lot. Finally, the standards of the hotels were what we expected." |

Dear Vineet,
"Thank you so much for the welcome email. I was delighted with the excellent service and travel arrangements provided through your company. In particular, the gentleman in the airport who facilitated our check in and maneuvering through the airport was an excellent service and relieved much anxiety on my part. The visit to the Taj Mahal was wonderful and I appreciated having a car and driver, it made the trip much more bearable, and the guide in Agra was very knowledgeable, unfortunately we ran out of time because of our schedule. Also, thank you for the lovely dinner, excellent company and a fine evening, I appreciate your thoughtfulness." |

Hi Vineet,

Dear Vijay,
“Our trip to the backwaters to Kerala in November 2007 remained an indelible highlight in our holiday calendar for the year". The itinerary for the 6 nights and 7 days that Luxe India planned and executed was outstanding and matched the promise of “God’s Own Country” that Kerala offered. Luxe India spared no effort to ensure that we had a safe, comfortable and memorable holiday starting from Kochi, Periyar, Kumarakom, Alleppey and back. We were equally very impressed by the presentation of the itinerary laid out in a well bound and attractive planner that will remain with us as a wonderful souvenir to recall our trip. The backwater hotel locations and properties recommended by Luxe India was paradise in itself and especially the retreat at Alleppey was heavenly. Thank you all at Luxe India for a fantastic holiday." |

Seeing the Taj was something I shall never forget. I do hope to get back to India some day and see more of it. Thank you again for everything. You and your hotel staff were extremely gracious and hospitable." |

"India was a great and an unforgettable experience. A big country and special people! We were afraid of coming thinking about being uncomfortable, but it couldn’t be better! The tourism service was perfect, the drivers and guides were excellent. The hotels and restaurants were very, very good. We were very happy and hope to come back soon. We will tell to our friends in Brazil to visit India." |
