A few excerpts from what people wrote to us in appreciation and thanks:

	Catherine Oden - Atout France (French Tourism Board), 22FEB2013 We are happy to inform you that our partners from Club Spiritualité, Provence, Alpes, Côte d’Azur (PACA), Aquitaine and Champagne were pleased with the Agra tours that were efficiently organized by you, and the quality of the service offered to them. In the event of our partners expressing a desire to tour around Delhi, or visit Rajasthan at any time before or after the workshops in India, we shall certainly contact you again for your services.

	Angela Dick - Frankfurt, 18FEB2013 I really love so much your perfectly organized AIRAWAT programs for traveling through India. I never saw so many World Heritage Points during some days as it was possible between New Delhi and Mumbai. India is always very impressive.

	Pierre Alba - France, 07AUG2012 Thank you for your organisation. The last day we “zapped” (missed) the temple because I was worried about arriving late in Delhi. In fact, we took 6 hours to reach (Agra) and almost the same amount of time to return: this made us arrive quite late at the hotel at AGRA which was very nice but which we could not enjoy to the utmost. A number of my colleagues have also been to AGRA and they have also taken 6 hours or more. Otherwise the guide was very good, and spoke impeccable French. I feel sorry for the driver, as I don’t take very well to long drives as a passenger.

	Gillian Barlow - Singapore, 17JUL2012 I have no problem with recommending you to anyone, I was soooooo impressed with the service and the level of service I received. 10 Ladies from Singapore with very high standards travelling to India, we went to best hotels and travelled around in a new bus, with a tour guide who was brilliant. Our itinerary was to all the places we wanted to go to……and we were able to change things at the last minute to satisfy our need to shop. I would and do recommend Pulin and his office to everyone.....and I will definitely use them again. I am still talking about our trip to India as one of my favorites. Please pass on my details and I would be delighted to answer anyone’s questions.

	Hannes Muehlbacher - Austria, 25MAR2012 We actually arrived from the airport. Everything worked perfect without any problems. The specially designed tour this year was also great and we had the possibility to catch wonderful moments at the different locations. The most impressive moments we got at Paltiana. We think it is a must not only to visit Rajasthan with its great monuments, also the quiet places like Bhimbetka or Champaner with the living temple at Pavagadh Hill are really worth to visit. Thank you again for managing this tour.

	Kathy Howarth - USA, 12FEB2012 We are finally recovered from our jet lag and back in the old routine! Can't begin to tell you how thrilled we were to see the both of you after such a long time! I just wish that we could have had more time together. You are both such kind and fun people to be around!bAlso, we want to express our heartfelt thanks for the superb job you did in putting together our unforgettable return trip to your wonderful country! It truly is "Incredible India!" I am excited because today I will pick up the DVD we have had made for our TV and spend this evening watching a show of the 400+ photos we took during the tour! Again, thank you so, so much for everything you did for us!

	Charlotte Buttin - USA, 08DEC2011 I want to thank you for providing me with the wonderful experience of visiting your amazing country. I fell in love with India and can't say enough for the thoughtful and encompassing itinerary that allowed me to see so much of the treasures of India. I hope to have the opportunity of returning to India to explore other regions. All of our guides, bus drivers, helpers and especially the yoga instructor made our trip delightful and memorable. Thank you again for the amazing experience.

	Angela Dick - Germany, 29NOV2011 Just arrived very well in Germany and being very happy having met your family. I like to say again many thanks to all my friends in India. The tour arranged by AIRAWAT was marvelous and offered much more than I ever expected. The beautiful state of Rajasthan and the impressive city of Amritsar near the Indian border. My warm regards to India.

	Gillian Barlow - Singapore, 16OCT2011 I would just like to say on behalf of all of the girls....... Thank you soooo much, we had a brilliant time.......We loved it all, hotels were fabulous...... the bus.....the itinerary......We did change the itinerary a little as we were very keen to shop..... My only regret is that I didn’t go for longer, so now I have to come back....... shopping was fabulous.....And what can I say about the Taj.......that was super special.......I will be recommending you to everyone......So once again Pulin, your service was No. 1......It’s not goodbye, but see you again in India.....

	Christine Hallman - Australia on TripAdvisor, 10OCT2011 We have just completed 19 days covering Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur and then South to Kochi, Munnar, Thekkady and Alleppey. Airawat Tours organised the itinerary, accommodation in great hotels, drivers, guides, internal flights etc Mallika Trivedi was extremely responsive to all my suggestions and requests and there wasn't a glitch in the entire trip. We were first time travelers to India and Mallika made it an enjoyable and fascinating experience for us. I am more than happy to recommend their services

	Alka Pancholy Jain - Canada, 14APR2011 We are ever so grateful to you for our wonderful trip to Rajasthan. You have no idea what you have achieved. We have been telling all our friends about Airawat Tours and are sure that you will be hearing from most of them at some point.

	Hannes & Anelika and Christoph - Austria, 24MAR2011 So, we are back in Austria again without any troubles. Thank you very much for the great tour you designed for us. Everything work perfect and we got many insights into your country. Special thanks for the great guides you arranged for us. I'm quite sure that we'll meet us again, to go to the south of India.

	Ms Jenny Shi - China, 11FEB2011 We had a very good time in India. I shared my experience in India with my friends, they were all interested in it. They had thought touring in India was a terrible thing. I told them that was not the truth. Go and discover the real India by your own eyes. India is a such attractive country. Even I plan to revisit India sometime in the future. My son is writing the travel notes. He will have a presentation to his classmate about this tour at the beginning of next term. Thank you for giving us such a memorable experience.

	Ms Geraldine Thibierge - France, 02FEB2011 Cela fait bientôt trois semaines que nous avons quitté le Rajasthan et je m'aperçois que je ne vous ai pas écrit pour vous remercier de votre efficacité. C'était très bien organisé. Les chauffeurs et les voitures étaient parfaits, les hôtels aussi, malgré le froid mais cela vous ne pouviez pas le prévoir, et nous avons eu chaud dès que je vous en ai fait la demande. Merci beaucoup de votre patience dans l'élaboration de ce projet ; je ne manquerai pas de faire appel à vous si l'occasion se présente et je vous recommanderai à des amis.

	Mr Tatsuya Hashimoto - Japan, 28JAN2011 We thank you for your perfect care of us during our stay in India. After our visit to Singapore and Hongkon, we cam back to Japan on January 21. We really enjoyed our trip to India.

	Prof Ashok Malhotra - State University of New York, Oneonta, USA, 27JAN2011 Thanks to you, we have had a fabulous trip to India. Linda and I just returned and got busy with work at the college. I had been under the weather because of the drastic change in temperature from 30 C to -20 C. I am getting better a bit. I will write more and talk to you soon when I get better! A Great job done by Mallika, you and your excellent Airawat crew! Hats off to Airawat!
	Mr Ray Shivaji Nath, Chairman - The Indian Association of The Experiment in Internaitonal Living - 03JAN2011 The All India Meet at Bikaner held on 25th - 28th DEC, 2010 concluded after completing its deliberations. All the delegates who attended the Meet were more than satisfied with the stay at Hotel Heritage Resort as well as the arrangements doe by you. Your excellence and personal touch contributed greatly in making eht Meet a grand success. Many thanks and we look forward towards more such ventures in future.

	Mr Aymeric Salmon on behalf of Yves & Veronique - France, 26MAR2010 My parents are now back to Mumbai and they are very happy with their trip. In particular, they were impressed by the professional qualities of your staff / agents throughout the program. They wish to express their warmest thanks to the whole team and congratulations for bringing such a good quality of service.

	Mr Patrick Doherty – USA, 22JAN2010 Thanks again for a really great tour., I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I will be sure to recommend your company's services to my friends and relatives! I also hope to come back to India sometime and maybe go to the south - kerala, etc

	Prof Ashok Malhotra - State University of New York, Oneonta, USA, 20JAN2010 Linda and I are back in Oneonta and recuperating from the jetlag! Thanks to your personal care and professional organization, the trip to India was very successful. All the transportation and the hotel stays arranged by you were more than satisfactory. Bravo to your team! Also I thank you a bundle for proving me with the seven star accommodations, by feeding me my favorite dishes and drinks as well as by taking me to a couple of exotic wedding receptions.

	Mr Jose Toledo Jr - Singapore, 13JAN2010. Let me take this opportunity to thank you for the Golden Triangle Tour that I had with your company from December 26-31, 2009. I know I must have been a hard customer to please, and you succeeded. Sure, there have been some glitches. But regardless, I think what counts most is your hands-on commitment to customer service. I said I was interested to watch some kusti matches at Jama Masjid, and when there weren't any, you took the initiative to have me brought to the famous Guru Hanuman Akhara. And that makes up the difference vs. dealing with just the staff of a big tour group. For my constructive criticism, I think the challenge for improvement is to be able to inculcate your level of customer service orientation to your staff and subcontractors. I wish you all the best in that regard, and once agawe look forward towards more such ventures in future.

	Ms Ameeta Desai, National Secretary General, The Indian Association of *The Experiment in International Living*, from India. We take this opportunity to express our deep appreciation & gratitude to you for providing services in an exemplary manner in organizing our All India Meet at Khajuraho from 28th to 30th December, 2009 & optional tour to Orchha on 31st December, 2009. All your services were praiseworthy, be it hiring of luxury bus, Hotel accommodation, Food, precise instructions, conference room with suitable arrangements for 65 participants for the Meet & Executive Meetings & other minutest services. Optional tour to Orchha was also very well arranged with excellent Hotel accommodation & enjoyable New Year Celebrations. It is only your sincerity & love for our organization without any selfish motive which could result in such excellent services appreciated by one & all. On behalf of the Indian Experiment, all the 65 participants & myself, I place on record our total satisfaction & deep appreciation for the praiseworthy services provided by you and convey our many thanks. We will definitely look forward to you for future All India Meet & expect your positive response.

	Ms Radhika Wakankar - India, 04JAN2010 "I wanted to thank you for all the arrangements. The trip went very well and we enjoyed it :) The car, driver, houseboat, guide in Cochin and pick-up / drop time coordinating etc were all to our liking and we enjoyed the holiday because of it"


	Ms Laura Panayotou, President - Women's International Club, Athens - 01DEC2009 On behalf of our Activities Officers Charu Batra and Tassoula Papakirillou, and members of the Women's International Club of Athens, who enjoyed tremendously your luxurious, unique tour of India, I extend our heartfelt thanks. You were responsible for many special and unusual activities, notleast of which was elephant polo match! Indeed our members are still talking about the gourmet cuisine they enjoyed throughout the trip.

	Barry & Wendy Laubsch - Discover India Prog - FF Exch, Adelaide, Australia, 14OCT2009 "Wendy and I thought we would like to thank you and Gogi for a special night when you hosted us for dinner. Apart from that we greatly enjoyed the tour you arranged and guided while we were in India. A special thanks must go to Nishant and Poonam too for the effort they put in and the ease with which everything was arranged. The whole trip is one that stands out in our memories as probably the most exciting, though often confronting, one we have ever done. Given this was our 14th overseas experience, that is really saying a lot. Please accept our thanks for a wonderful experience and the thoroughly professional manner in which you, your family and staff arranged it for us."

	Arnie Pozos, Travel Manager of AMD, USA “…Thank you very much for all your hard work……to make this event a HUGE SUCCESS!!! It is greatly appreciated...”

	Ms Dawn Beck - Discover India Prog - FF Exchange from Sacramento CA, USA, 28MAR2008 “Have talked and talked about you and India. It was a great experience for me and hope to go again. Thank you for all the special little treats you shared with us--your daughter's wedding pictures, the slides of the temples, meeting with your friends, the history of the Moguls, and much more. Hope your dog is doing well as he's part of the family. Think about visiting us. You and your wife would be treated royally in Sacramento. ”

	Chris Deegan, Regional Director for Asian Programs, Academic Semester Abroad, School for International Studies, USA “…Airawat Tours once again has provided excellent service to our study abroad program........ for at least the past ten years I have personally worked with you……..we have always considered you as one of our academic partners, filling a very special niche in a complicated program.........one could not ask for a stronger partner in the planning and delivery of an academic program providing an intellectual overview and personal experience of the culture and history of a region…”

	Yvonne & Ted Schenk, Participants in Elderhostel Program from USA. “…sincerely thank you for a truly memorable time in your country …….. all the ‘extras’ you planned for us were unexpected, festive and fun …….. tireless in your efforts to assure things run smoothly (no small task!) and that we were all well and happy…”

	Claudette Hutchinson, FIT from Canada “…to thank you and your wife for providing me with such a wonderful experience while I was in India…..so well taken care of that I have become a true tourism ambassador for your country. I have educated people on how beautiful and picturesque India is ……..it should become everyone’s travel destination at least once in their lifetime!”

	Dr. Alan Donovan, President - College of Oneonta, State University of New York, USA ".I want to write to thank you again and give you a rave notice for the fine tour you conducted for our group in the first two weeks of January (2001). No wonder Airawat Tours has won the National Tourism Award for Excellence not once but twice-1996-97 and 1999-2000! There are many things, I know, which go into a good tour; knowledge of the country, in all its aspects; words of advice for visitors; appropriateness of accommodation; and finally, the ability to understand the nature of the tour group, its particular needs and interests. In all of these your work was superb. In sum, I would enthusiastically and without reservation recommend you and Airawat Tours to anyone who wants the kind of splendid visit to India I had.
