We are talking to Caper by email at the moment as we are planning a comprehensive trip to Inia from the UK in november 08. They look good and appear to be well organised but hard to tell. Better than other India based companies we have contacted. Clearly we would welcome feed back as to how you get on please. Ken Campbell

Hi! I just return from India, and I must say I love it!! Caper Travel company were fantastic, when we arrived at the airport there was some from the company with a flower’ necklace and we drive to the hotel in the center of Delhi. We visit Delhi in a car with ac and a guide who spoke English, and that happen in every other city we visit. The drive was always the same in Delhi, Jaipur and Agra. From Agra to Varanasi we went by train and that was a very radical experience (I recommend 1st class sleeper, because 2nd class sleeper is very bad), and return to Delhi by airplane (Spice Jet) and thatwas a good trip too.

In each city the travel company send us always a person who represent them in other to give us all the information for that city and is contact in case of an emergency.

So, I recommend Caper Travel Company because they are definitely very professionals.

We have had a superb tour through Caper Travel, and I thoroughly recommend them to any one who is considering a tour. We arrived in Delhi 15 minutes early, and the only glitch was the short wait until the Caper travel rep. actually arrived! We were taken to our hotel and introduced to Uday who was the driver who remained with us throughout the tour. His English was not brilliant, but his driving was. We felt safe and in good hands throughout. The hotels we chose were fine, but maybe we should have paid a bit extra and gone for the 5* options. In Delhi the City Park was a bit remote. We had different guides for each of the sites we went to, and they were all interesting and enthusiastic. If you don't want to visit the tourist shops they recommend, then hold firm and say no. If you go, be prepared for the hard sell and inflated prices. Everything went like clockwork - they phone ahead and your guides are waiting. The Golden Triangle tour we went on was hard work, but amazing. If you are thinking of going: don't hesitate - book now, and you'll get the trip of a lifetime at a fraction of the cost of booking via a UK travel agent.

We were asked for a 50% deposit several weeks before travel. The original invoice was in US dollars, and my small NatWest bank could't do this, so the invoice was converted into pounds, and then I did a bankers draft. This cost me about £20. Then I took the rest of the money in sterling cash, and handed over the money and got a receipt as we checked into our hotel. Tip: leave the amount to be handed over in cash as a round figure, that you can pay with notes, rather than coins. I accept that this is a worrying thing, as you send off the money with no idea whether you'll be left stranded, but don't worry, they're a legitimate organisation and you'll get your moneysworth!! Enjoy your trip!

Read your query and was wondering if you could let us know how it went. We are presently corresponding with Caper Travel to plan our honeymoon in august 2009. We are not sure whether what is promised is what you really get and if it is safe to trust the company with payments and all.

Would really appreciate any comments from your side. Thanks a lot
