Namaskar!
We are a tour operator in India with over two decades of successful operation and combined experience of over 70 plus years in the knowledge pool.
We are a tour operator with a difference and we do not hesitate to say so. Though we may be like any other Indian tour operators offering/ organising tours in India and the Indian subcontinent, we still do things differently than the rest and that is what makes Chariotindia different from the others.
In any organized tour every tour operator provides you with car/ coaches, drivers, accommodations, guides, internal or regional train/air travels, which is a routine. However, how it is planned and executed makes the difference in your experience. Who takes you around makes a big difference and how much your tour operator knows his destinations is key to a good holiday and we proudly say - “Yes we know our India and could be your Chariot to explore and demystify this enigma that world know as India”.
Be it a half-day sightseeing tour of Delhi or a day return excursion to Taj Mahal or multi-days or weeks tours ranging from cultural tours, family holidays, wildlife tours, birding/ bird watching tours, motorbike tours, trekking in the eastern to the western Himalayas, religious tours, education tours in India and the Indian subcontinent, we organise each one of them with equal ease. We plan all our tours meticulously and execute them with perfection.
Comments from our past clients are testimony to our service quality and we are happy to share their references with you when desired.
We encourage our clients to tailor-make their holidays, as we feel everyone has their wn small unique requirements than the others. We feel happy to suggest small activities of your interest area and incorporate them in your tour that adds spice to your holiday.
We are actually not just tour operators by profession, but a group of explorers at heart, who loves sharing their experiences. The team comprises individuals with varied interests who are happy to share their knowledge and experience in creating the tour which you have been looking for. Because of our fine understanding of subjects/interests we pursue and good field experience, we have been able to identify field experts who are apt to execute what has been conceived.
Once you are decided that you are all you need to do is to buy your international air ticket, get an Indian visa, and land in India, we will take care of you right from your arrival at the airport till you are dropped at the airport to board your homeward flight.
You may not need to worry about dealing with us as we are a Government of India recognized inbound tour operator.
