While booking our tour to Nepal we liked the itinerary of Tripathi Travels. Also, Mr Pravin Tripathi, customised our tour as per our requirements. His experience worked in making our trip seamless and memorable. He organised a great itinerary and arranged one of his best drivers named Balram to help us as a tour guide and driver. Balram was very polite throughout the trip. He guided us at all the tourist spots and also took us to a local market for shopping, which was a good experience.
