Introduction

India is a global tourist destination admired for its cultural diversity, architectural beauty, natural landscapes, and one-of-a-kind surroundings. Called to be one of the oldest civilizations on the planet, it is also one of the fastest-growing countries in the world. These unique traits of India make it an intriguing place for tourists to explore and experience. 

India’s heritage lies in its unique history, architectural beauty, religions, and festivals. One can experience this unique land in different ways. However, Private Guided tours are the most suited to explore this hustling-bustling country. In this blog, we’ll tell you what makes Private Tours the most opted option for foreign tourists to India. You’ll also get to know what all is included in private Tours and how to book one seamlessly. 

What are Private Tours?

A personalized private tour of the Taj Mahal offers an enriching experience as visitors delve into its historical and architectural significance.

Private tours are independent tours organized by Certified Travel Agencies/Tour Operators. One of the biggest advantages you get with Private Guided Tours is that a Certified tour operator plans your tour keeping in mind your dates of travel, tour flow, transport arrangements, monument tickets, and everything around it. 

A travel agency manages your entire stay, transport, monument tickets and more. And for these services, they charge you an inclusive Fee. 

Private Guided Tours are best as you get – 

  • Best Accommodations 
  • Best Vehicles for commuting
  • Government-certified tour guide
  • 24×7 support
  • Exclusive Experiences 
  • Add on options

If you travel independently, you may likely miss out on a few things like these. Additionally, you may end up spending more because of a lack of information.

  • Define your travel goals

What kind of traveler are you? Do you wish to explore the cultural heritage of India, or stroll across the quaint lanes of Indian cities, or delve deep into the Indian jungles to explore India’s amazing Wildlife? India as a country is huge with so much to see and experience. You have to decide your purpose of travel before going ahead with any kind of booking. 

  • Research tour operators

While you may reach out to numerous tour operators for planning your tour, stay cautious and make sure to check a few things. Check their website and listed tours. Read the tour flow, and look for customer photos and reviews. See if they have had organized the kinds of tours you are looking for. Also, see if they have any association with Government bodies. 

  • Plan your itinerary carefully

With so much information on the internet about tour destinations, it is easy to lose track of what’s important and what’s not! Hence, plan your tour itinerary and destinations carefully. Seek help from your travel planner, read customer reviews and suggest places. 

  • Check for Inclusions and Exclusions

Inclusions and Exclusions are important as they can decide whether your tour is properly designed or not. Typical Tour inclusions include monument tickets, transport, and accommodations, a certified tour guide, and meals. Read tour itineraries carefully or get in touch with your travel advisor. Typical exclusions include Tips, Gratuities, and personal expenses. 

Travel agencies like Treasure Trip India offer customizable options for you to add to your tour. Speak with our travel advisor and add your favorite things to your tour inclusions. 

  • Go for premium accommodations and transportation

You’ll find most of the Indian cities crowded, noisy, and a bit chaotic. Similarly, the roads may not always be the best and smooth. Hence, you should choose Premium hotels which are often located in quiet, calm, and secluded locations. Similarly, opt for premium vehicles for smooth and comfortable commuting.

Another benefit you’ll get with premium hotels and vehicles is that you’ll get to experience India’s much-cherished hospitality and services which are regarded as one of the best in the world. Indian hotel chains – Oberoi Group of Hotels and Taj Hotels are awarded some of the top hotel chains in the world and you can choose these for your India travel. 

  • Budget and Negotiation

Budgeting is important before planning an India tour. Check and compare flight rates, and hotel rates before booking. Also, check the GST element. If you plan to book your tour with a Travel Agency, check what’s included and what’s not included. Also, check for any hidden costs. Tour budgeting is crucial as it helps you enjoy your tour without breaking the bank. Also during travel, negotiate and bargain with vendors and shopkeepers. 

  • Pack Smart

India is a huge country in size with different weather in different regions. For instance, the Northernmost states are always cold, while the southern states have hot and humid climates. The central states have seasonal winters of four months. Hence, depending on where you plan to go, check for weather updates and pack accordingly. 

If you are traveling during the summer months, carry loose, light, and comfortable clothes, whereas carry jackets, sweaters, and thermals during winter travel. 

Conclusion

 In conclusion, booking a private tour is a straightforward process; you just need to follow each step precisely, from setting your travel goal to making an effective budget and choosing the right tour operator. By considering these 7 things, you can easily ensure a personalized and enjoyable experience while exploring the land of culture.
