From the planning stage to the execution of the trip everything went excellent. Himanshu and his team were very responsive and quickly replied to our emails. We had an excellent car and hotels during our family trip to India. Himanshu even escorted us during our travel, We felt very safe and enjoyed this beautiful country without any worry. Our driver was really good and the car was spotlessly clean. I highly recommend BoutIndia for tailor-made holidays to India. They are professional and will go the extra mile to please you. I wish them good luck.
Thank you so much to Himanshu and colleagues for the most wonderful trip. The attention to detail you offered was beyond outstanding. From the moment we landed in Delhi, we did not have to think about anything. Our driver, Amrish was absolutely fantastic and made us felt safe at all times. Your company called us every day to make sure we were happy and comfortable. We have never experienced such professionalism before. It has opened our eyes to the magic that is India. We cannot wait to come back and will recoomend Bout India to all our friends.Lee, Megan & Pete, Perth, Australia
We had a tour for 3 people at the 'comfort' level, and I can't imagine what additional service comes with the luxury level, because we were extremely comfortable. Himanshu and his team arranged beautiful hotels for us (including personalising according to our request of smaller hotels where we could get to know the staff), and everywhere we went we had local guides who really knew the monuments and had great pride in their city. We always had wonderful food (our favourite was when Himanshu took us on a street food tour of Jaipur), but were very well looked after and no one got sick throughout the entire t.... Read More
In December 2018 I made a trip to India's golden triangle and two national parks. It was a custom-made private tour for two people. Himanshu was involved in the scheduling of this tour from the very beginning of this project. All his advice and recommendations were very helpful and allowed escaping many potential problems and pitfalls. As it was our first time in India we had a lot of worries, but Himanshu spoke with me many times by Skype and Whatsup, responded patiently to all questions, and made many very helpful recommendations. When arrived in New Delhi, we were met by a very good driver with flowers who escorted.... Read More
My husband and I booked our first trip to India through Bout India Tours in March/April 2016 and had an amazing introduction to a country we had always dreamed of seeing. Rather than the typical tourist group experience with a busload of other people, we were accompanied during part of the journey with the wonderful founder of Bout India and spent the rest of it by ourselves with a private car and driver. Though we started out with a planned itinerary, they really customized our journey as they got to know us, resulting in an even more perfect trip. In our two weeks in India with Bout India Tours we really felt th.... Read More
Bout India changed my perspective on travel in India. I had been once before and wasn't too thrilled but this time the company made the difference. From the moment the driver met me at the airport with flowers until the time I was dropped off several days later, everything was perfect. Each time I was picked up it was on time and the vehicles were spotless. The drivers were great. Adi was an excellent tour guide. She was sensitive to my needs and made sure that I enjoyed everything. She kept me informed via email until I arrived and then made sure everything was in order. Our day trip to the Taj Mahal was remarkable. I thoroughly enjoyed her as well as the local guide. Thanks for an amazing experience.

Had an amazing 26 day tour organised by Kunal at Bout India. We threaded a fantastic trip across India around 3 of the World Cup cricket matches.

Ahmedabad - added to our Gandhi knowledge and took a scary tuk tuk ride. Shimla and Dharamshala - fulfilled a long term dream to go to the Dharamshala cricket ground in the Himalayan foothills. And managed to get up and down the Triund Trek. Amritsar - amazing Golden Temple, our guide helped us to join in rolling some chapatis to feed the needy at La.... Read More

We had unparalleled service with Himanshu on our recent trip to India. The drivers and guides he used were marvelous. Our trip was customized to accommodate our every need and interest and Himanshu went over the top to provide personal touches during the trip. We would not hesitate to use him again or recommend him to friends. Fabulous trip!
Bout India gave us the most memorable and amazing holiday. The programme that was put together was diverse and fully comprehensive. Each and every city we visited offered something unique and exciting. We were so well cared for throughout our travels and we can't thank Bout India representatives enough for their care and little touches that added so much to this amazing holiday. Our travels over 16 days encompassed stays in Delhi, Agra, Ranthambore, Jaipur, Jodphur, Udaipur and Goa. Our driver Shankar - was always on time, and had fresh bottled water available daily. He took pride in his car and was so helpful ma.... Read More
Cannot fault our trip-THANK YOU to all at Bout India. Akansha was our fabulous email trip organiser back and forth from Aus, and then the lovely Geet when in India.

Our first time with a tour service, and it did not disappoint. Wonderful driver, hotels, guides and tours. Amrish took us right to our door and our guide took us to the front of the line at each site. Learned amazing facts from our guides-Rao, Sandy, and Carney.
This is my 2nd trip to India with Bout India within 12 months, which should prove that they are the most trustworthy and efficient travel agent if you ever want to explore the amazing country, India. What I love about Bout India is not only their professionalism but also their hospitality spirit and warm welcome to the country. ALL staff members are friendly and easy to communicate from the planning and the departure to your home country. They accommodated my 13 year old daughter and she is already talking about her next visit to India near future. Be open and experience something extraordinary!
There are really no words that adequately describe our tour in India. From the moment we were met at the airport with necklaces of flowers, a comfortable and spacious van, and our most humble and gracious driver and chauffeur, Taj, we were treated like royalty. We learned so much from our guides and had so many incredible experiences it will take a while to come down off our cloud. Thank you to Pinki Rai who set up our trip. She was so patient as I changed my mind on hotels many times. And speaking of hotels--WOW, they were all amazing and luxurious. Don't miss the Claridges in Dehli or the Samode Haveli in Jaipur 2 of our f.... Read More
Unbelievable experience. Bout India delivered above and beyond. All the hotels, guides, and drivers were amazing. They were all so helpful and friendly. Geet checked in with me everyday to make sure everything was ok and to detail what I needed to know for the next day. I especially appreciate the change made on the last day to accommodate my last minute flight cancellation. Nothing was too much trouble. Booking online can be a bit hit and miss but Bout India Tours can be relied on no question. Fantastic
We booked our tour around Rajasthan, Golden Triangle and Kerala with Bout India. The agency took excellent care of us. Everything was organised so well and we felt in very safe hands. In each destination our tour guides and drivers were friendly, experienced and extremely knowledgeable, and on the whole the hotels were of a very good standard and quality. The agency organised lots of amazing activities for us to do such as visiting palaces, forts, temples, cultural shows, jungle treks, jeep safaris, tea plantation visits and backwater cruising. The staff at Bout India are very helpful and were always in contact. We knew we could get assi.... Read More

Bout India Tours far exceeded my highest expectations during our 14-day tour of Northern India, including Amritsar, Varanasi, New Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur. From start to finish, Akansha and Geetanshi made planning and executing this trip a joy. Our guides in each location were friendly and knowledgeable - truly top-notch service. "Roop" in Amritsar stood out among all of the truly outstanding guides. Each guide really put their own unique spin on things and kept us going at a reasonable pace with information tailored to our particular interests. The 5-star hotels in each city were beautiful and relaxing - we particularly enjoyed the Trident.... Read More
