Festivals

We wanted to thank you for all the hard work that you have done around our trip. It was a wonderful experience and I’m amazed by your attention to detail and continued follow up. Thank you again. We really appreciate it.

We just wanted to let you know that our Lucknow trip was a memorable one. Everything was well organized. Mehru is quite knowledgeable and she made a welcoming host. We would like to especially thank our driver, Mr. Thapa who went above and beyond to ensure that we were comfortable. We appreciate that a lot.

We had a terrific time in general and Mary Anne specifically enjoyed interacting with local weavers observing and learning some techniques different from what she already knew. We will have no hesitation in recommending one of your tours to our family and friends. Some specifics: We were extremely happy with our driver Mohan. He was prompt and courteous and a very safe driver. When there was no guide with us he proved to be extremely knowledgeable in his own right and very protective of us when he drove us to restaurants for lunch (on days with no guide) and in the evening. (When there was a guide in the car he tended not to speak too much.) In general the guides were good. I would say highlights of the tour included the walk down the street in the village where everyone is a weaver (on the way to Pondicherry), the half day tour in Karaikudi with the guide from the Bangala that included the mansion houses and weaving center, the Meenakshi Temple and Chungadi saris in Madurai (your guide there was particularly good) and the next day with the same guide at the Gandhigram Center dying and weaving centers. I want to thank you again for everything you did before and during the tour to make our visit so successful. We had a lot of fun.
