Heritage hotels were a real treat — the one near the lake had a rooftop where we watched the sunset every evening. All three properties were well chosen and the transfers between them were seamless.

Mixed feelings. The sites were spectacular and the driver excellent, but our guide's English was harder to follow than we expected and we missed some of the detail. The office apologised quickly when we mentioned it.

We have used a lot of tour companies over the years and this was among the best organised. Every hotel was as described, every transfer on time, and one phone call fixed the single hiccup within minutes.

The food stops were the surprise star. Our guide took us to a family-run place for thali that we would never have found alone, and explained every dish. Not a single upset stomach in six days.
