  インドに6ヶ月滞在中、2度旅行に行きました。1度目は南インド、2度目は北インドに行きました。2回ともこちらの会社にお世話になり、最高の旅になりました。 メールの返信が早く、電話での対応も迅速でした。 仕事で忙しく、飛行機、ホテルなどの予約する時間がなかった私たちにとって、行きたい場所を伝えただけで、飛行機、電車、車、ホテルの予約、すべて行ってくれたのは、大変ありがたかったです。 こちらの会社はデリーにあります。2度目の旅では、行き先にデリーを含んでいたので、シンさんに実際にお会いすることができました。シンさんは気さくな方で、日本語が流暢であるのがとても印象的でした。次回、またインドに来る際は、こちらの旅行会社を利用したいです。
