India Luxury Vacation Review: Jaipur, Ranthambore, Bike Tour, Safari, Taj Mahal, Local Cuisine

Zicasso's travel company was great to work with. During the planning process, we had great communication via email and phone to discuss our trip and achieve our budget. All tour guides and experiences were great, especially the food, night, and bike tours in Jaipur.

The hotels they selected were amazing, especially the one in Ranthambore. When there was a mishap with one of the tour companies (out of their control), they more than made up for it by offering two private tours (vs shared). One of the best parts of our trip was our driver, who took us around India for 10 days. They also arranged people at each hotel and airport to help make the check-in process seamless.

Two notes of improvement. The hotel in Jaipur, while gorgeous, felt a little dated, and you are awoken each morning at 5.30am by prayers. Also, there were swarms of little bugs by the pool, making it unenjoyable. To be clear, this wasn’t their initial selection. However, based on the photos, we chose this hotel over other ones. The other thing I wished they were clearer on was the start/end times of the tours, as that would make any activities you want to plan on your own (massages, dinner reservations) easier to arrange from the beginning.

Overall, it was an amazing trip and I highly recommend them!
