I have just returned from the Wild Wonders tour in India with Mysteries of India. The holiday was superb in every way. The organisation was meticulous with tremendous care taken of our small group of 8 every single step of the way. I was travelling on my own and always felt at ease. Despite the starts before dawn (of course!) and little downtime we had such a special time - we had all come to see tigers and other wildlife and we were certainly not disappointed! DK, our tour leader/guru/photography expert, was brilliant and ensured the whole trip ran perfectly and exceeded our expectations. He made location decisions to try to get the best out of every day for us. He was also incredibly kind in giving me camera coaching enabling me to get the best shots from my new camera. The choice of accommodation, his team of guides, naturalists, drivers were all superb. Communications were thorough and excellent and we were connected by a WhatsApp group which made communicating easy. We saw 7 tigers and lots of beautiful wildlife and scenery. I cannot speak more highly of Mysteries of India, their attention to detail and organisation meant you could just relax and enjoy your time rather than worrying about anything. I can very highly recommend them and will definitely be a return customer.

We just returned from the "Wild Experiences" escorted tour which we extended with five days in Goa. MoI were excellent at every step of the way. The planning and booking process was helpfully and professionally managed. All of the (quite complex) arrangements went very smoothly with a MoI representatives or staff on hand at every step of the way. The accommodation and food was of a very high standard. Our tour included a day hiking and camping in Satpura National Park, which was truly memorable. And of course, given it was a Wild Experiences tour, the wildlife was exceptional. We had multiple sightings of tigers, some very close up, several sloth bears and a leopard - as well as the a wide range of birds and other mammals. We were lucky enough to have DK escorting us throughout and with his knowledge and enthusiasm he brought an additional level of interest and excitement. Overall MoI did an outstanding job and we would not hesitate to recommend them.

MOI are a wonderful company that offer complete and comprehensive support for all needs whilst travelling in India. They are ready to assist with any change of plans during a tour, making changes seamless. Their guides are all highly professional and instructive but very much leave you in charge of your trip. The drivers were all first class in every way.
I particularly like that hotel suggestions will be made but ultimately it is down to the guest as to where they stay and what excursions they chose. Highly recommended.

Atull from mysteriesofindia planned my whole trip to India, he was very patient and understanding. The trip went fine. The flights, transfers and hotels he booked for me were excellent. I will definitely be using this company again

Mysteries of India are extremely professional. They provided a wonderful and interesting itinerary for us which ran very smoothly from beginning to end. We would definitely use them again.

Another amazing holiday arranged through Mysteries of India. This is my 3rd trip with this excellent agent and it won't be the last. Excellent service, communication and professionalism from start to finish.
Every single contact arranged by
MOI exceeded all expectations. The service received was personal and professional. Absolutely delighted that they even take AMEX as a payment and this means that I have total confidence with my Amex Insurance benefits. Nothing is too much trouble for MOI. Not only can you speak to somebody on the phone in the UK but they even put you in touch with agents on the grounds by WhatsApp. This means that you have ongoing support every single step of the way, prior to, during and post trip. Every recommendation met with our needs, and beyond! Huge thanks for making this trip to Kerala and Sri Lanka a trip of a life time.

The Oberoi in Bangalore was an extremely welcome hotel after a long journey. Impeccable service.
The Boatyard Hotel in Kerela and their sunset cruise provided a great opportunity to photograph the wonderful fishing nets.
The Spice Coast Cruise, backwater houseboat experience was absolutely incredible. Onto Sri Lanka...such a contrast to India.
Much much more laid back and considerably cleaner. A really relaxing place to be. However, we still experienced some "chancers" in the form of Tuk Tuk drivers trying to considerably over charge in Colombo. It was a little uncomfortable so be aware! Stay with your MOI driver and all will be well! In fact, our Sri Lanka driver, Hirun was probably the best and most caring driver I've ever come across. Thank you for your kindness and full attention to every detail.
We have now returned home wanting more.

Just returned from a 17 day holiday around the South of India.
Excellent trip which was extremely well organised with great attention to detail . Our driver who was with us for the whole of the adventure was brilliant , very careful driving in the traffic and helpful and courteous.
The choice of sightseeing could not be faulted , just the right amount of time at the various sites . All the various guides were very good , spoke good English and very personable.
Accommodation was excellent , apart from the first night in Chennai when we stayed in a modern hotel the rest of the accommodation was in small boutique type hotels . They were charming and in all the hotels the staff were very good and helpful.
The food , which apart from two stays , was not included in the holiday could not be faulted.
This was the third time that we have used MOI and will certainly use again and have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who is considering a trip to India.
Do it !!!!

Our trip to India was made fantastic by the efforts of the MOI team. The organisation was first class from start to finish. Great drivers, guides and help all the way; everyone was punctual, helpful and welcoming. Having all the tickets and transfers pre arranged was brilliant. Very comfortable to know where you are and what was is happening at all times. We were particularly grateful for having bottled water provided by the drivers with well chosen stops on the longer journeys. There are plenty of mysteries in India, but travelling with MOI, you are enlightened all the way.

Just returned from a fabulous 14 day tour in northern India with Mysteries of India including visits to Shimla, Varanasi, Kajuraho, Agra and Delhi. We were taken care of in every respect from the guides who accompanied us at each stop along the way to the hotels and personnel who looked after us in transitioning from one location to the next. MOI was flexible in every respect accomodating any additional activity we wanted to do. The trip could not have been better and I have already begun recommending MOI to the many friends who have asked. Jerry

The company was excellent. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They managed to amend flights for us, upgrade our hotels a couple of times, all because my indecision meant some things were sold out.
Everything ran like clockwork.
We stayed in 8 hotels in 19 days and at every hotel there was someone to meet us.
We had the same driver for the first 16 days, until we took a flight from Udaipur to Mumbai, and he was always punctual and professional in a very nice, well stocked car.
The guides, and there was a new one at each city, were also super knowledgeable and really interesting.
We will definitely be using MOI when we visit Sri Lanka soon

Constructive preparation of an itinerary that met our needs, very good selection of hotels, drivers excellent, guides good. Above all, everything worked like clockwork. We really felt MOI were looking after us as they were always there when needed and provided a service well above expectations. I would unhesitatingly choose them again for a trip to India and recommend them to others.

Our first visit to India and apart from a day of rain we couldn't have asked for more
Our driver Prekaesh was fabulous knowledgeable and friendly
Our city guides amazing and we saw so much more than if we tried to do it all ourselves

MOI are brilliant tour organisers. As was our previous experience in India, our tour of Sri Lanka was professionally managed with a very interesting and educated guide who looked after us superbly. Strongly recommended.

We have visited India many times and always include a wildlife part to each trip. The Asiatic Lions were next on my "tick" list so when we visited the travel show in London and came across DK, we knew this was the trip for us especially as the dates DK had already lined up fitted in nicely with our forthcoming trip. We don't usually travel in a "group" preferring to do special itineraries tailor made but what a group! They had all travelled with DK and MOI before but they made us feel so welcome - thank-you. We saw some of the most amazing wildlife including our Asiatic Lions, Indian Wolves, Blackbuck, the Wild Ass, so many species of birds, etc, etc, with very friendly and informative guides. Our driver and his helper were incredible and were with us the entire trip. The hotels that were used were very good and each perfectly sited for our next days itinerary. DK was always on the ball and made sure each of us received personal one-to-one time and he looked after any special requests we had (meat comes to mind !!!!) Overall, a very memorable and exciting trip - so much so, that we have booked another trip with DK and MOI this coming December.
Avery big thank you to MOI, its staff, DK and everyone else involved.

We have now been to India three times with MOI. Our first as part of an escorted (by DK) trip which in the event involved a rapid exit out of the country due to Covid. Our second, this time on our own, involved family research with visits to Meerut and Shimla, a wonderful stay at Pench in a Tree House and then the Golden Triangle. Our last visit was an escorted (by DK) trip to Gujarat in 2024. Absolutely amazing slightly off the tourist track it was quite unique and utterly memorable. We will be coming back to India and would have no hesitation in using Team MOI as I know everything will be organised to perfection and we will feel safe and in good hands.

After meeting DK at a travel fair, there was no question about whether we would book with Mysteries of India or not, it was simply a matter of when.

Every aspect of our trip was looked after from airport pick ups and drop offs, hotel check ins, internal transfers and drivers, even holding excess luggage for us whilst we flew to other cities so we didn't have to pay extra for excess luggage with the airlines.

We started arranging this trip with relatively little notice as our travels plans drastically changed, but we were able to get exactly the trip we wanted: city tours, great food, safari, relaxation, and authentic experiences learning about Indian craft by artisans.

It was an absolute pleasure travelling in India on this trip organised by Mysteries of India, I will certainly be back for more adventures.

We had a lovely trip to India organised by Mysteries of India . We first met DK at the Olympia travel fair and 18 months later we were there. We had a problem before we even left with a passport number on the Indian visa..so couldn’t travel but Mukesh was very supportive and managed to get our flight moved to 2 days later.
We had been to India several times before so wanted to go to different places and also do a safari.
The staff put us on a watsap group with them which was great and reassuring…and they were always on hand to help us…which we did use several times!
We visited Kolkata, Varanasi, Lucknow ,Delhi Sariska and Shimla.
It was a fabulous trip to mark my husbands retirement!

After meeting DK at a Travel Show, we engaged MOI to arrange a bespoke tour for our family. We were not disappointed - an amazing itinerary, superb hotels, wonderful wildlife (including leopard, elephant and tigers)- and above all, a very capable and safe driver. We also appreciated the continual check-ins from Shailendra during our trip.

Hello all at Mysteries of India …..
Chris and I would like to thank you for the amazing trip you arranged for us , we had the most fabulous time .
The brief was we wanted to see tigers and leopards, which we did , and had some amazing sightings . Also all of the other wildlife we saw during our safari’s was fabulous…… esp Wild Dogs on our walking safari whilst sitting on rocks in the middle of the river having a packed breakfast …… a special treat .
The whole trip ran like clockwork, with representatives and drivers that made our transfers and journeys so easy , and all lovely people who looked after us so well . We can’t thank you all enough for your organisation from start to finish, it was first class, and so appreciated by us both . Thank you once again . John and Chris 🙏

My wife and I recently completed our 3rd trip in 2 years with MOI. Our first being a 5 week private tour, our 2nd being part of an excellent small group tour taking in 3 fantastic tiger parks and a few days extension in Mumbai.
For our last trip however, we wanted hotels and transport only. We were once again extremely happy with the accommodation options offered. MOI arranged all of our accommodation transfers and several internal flights.
We have no hesitation in recommending the extremely helpful and knowledgeable team at MOI to anyone looking to use a local based company for a trip to India and beyond. A big thank you to Atul for and arranging this trip and to Subham for taking care of all the logistics whilst we were there. Steve & Diane
