Colourful Rajasthan
Rajasthan is the desert state of india. An area of great beauty and contrast
, it is the home of the valorous and colorful people - the rajputs , jats, and
bishnois. It is also a land, which successfully combines the dazzling burning
sands with simmering lake palaces. The hard rugged backdrop of shifting sand
dunes has surprisingly inspired the imaginative creation of temples, forts and
palaces of stunning artistry. It has also inspired color and pageantry as never
before. One is simply transported back in time by a few centuries while travelling
through this wonderful area of india. The Rajasthan nostalgia is sure to stay
with one for a long time.

Subject: Greetings from Spain
Dear Durjay,
It´s been quite a long time since our trip to India finished, and we owe you
some feedback. We´ve been prety busy until the moment since just before our
trip started, we had moved to a new house. Now life is becoming normal.
I hope you all are fine, and we expect no relatives or friends of yours have
been affected by the bombs in Mumbai. We were shocked when we heard the
news. Our mind was full of thoughts and feelings similar to the ones we had
here in Spain with the 11M attacks at Atocha train station.
Coming back to the trip. We must say we had a wonderful time in India, and
you and your team made a great work. Everything run accordingly and we made
the most of our stay. Something I considered highly important, was the
driver, and I have only good words for Shingara. He was absolutely perfect,
always in a good mood, willing to go wherever we planned different from the
scheduled tour. He contributed a lot to having a great tour.
With regards to the guides, I must say they were all good, but there was one
whom we considered exceptional. The guy who guided us in Jodhpur. Absolutely
fabulous!!! I guess he is one of those guides you can follow during a whole
trip. Very nice person and very professional. When we have friends coming to
India, or if we come back again, we will ask you for this guy, for sure.
We were a little bit disappointed with the guy who toured us in Udaipur. He
took us to a very expensive miniature shop and we decided not to buy
anything. That same day later in the afternoon, he followed us to see where
we were buying things, and the day after during the trip he asked us for an
explanation. We didn´t expect that treatment. We did not pay much attention
to that but I guess you´ll need to be careful, because it was an
uncomfortable situation for us and I guess there was no need for it. From
the point of view of the tour I must say he did a very good job, very
interesting explanations and very good spoken Spanish.
Our trip to Agra was a little bit stressful, I know this is in part my
fault, because I try to concentrate as many things as possible in a trip. I
guess it would have been better if we had gone to Agra by train instead of
by car. It took us a very long time and left us with not much time to visit
monuments. We had to decide which visits to skip, and that´s hard when
you´ve come from so far away to visit a country. Maybe you can think of this
for some other trips of people.
There was a hotel we did not like at all. The one in Jaisalmer. It was
abandoned and the people at the front desk were not very helpful or nice
(the staff was very good, as everywhere in India). Just in case someone else
asks you for it.
I guess these are the only things I would highlight, for the rest, the trip
was excellent and we keep on looking the pictures we took once and again.
Absolutely wonderful, Durjay! Great work you and your people did. We loved
everything we saw, we loved the people, the chaos, the traffic, everything.
You have a wonderful and huge country and the best thing is that you are
making it accessible to foreigners like us at all its best. It was great to
see your people at the airports, at the hotels, never feeling alone or
insecure. I know a colleague from Daniel has contacted you in order to
organise his trip to Calcutta. We´ve been publicising your company all over
because we had a great experience, and we would like our friends to share
that too.
Next time we visit India we would like to go to the South - Kerala and the
backwaters. We have no dates but I´m sure I will contact you again!
Feel free to provide our e-mail address to give feedback to other travellers
from Spain. We will be glad to share our wonderful experience with other
people so that they take Compass to plan their tour.
Thanks for everything once again!
Our warmest regards
Virginia & Daniel
