ONE CAN EASILY SEE WHY YOUR BUSINESS IS THRIVING

Dear Bunty, Thank you for being so responsive to all our needs, but most of all, thank you for Chandan, our lovely, skilled driver who made us feel secure at every turn. He even knew the right places to stop on our long journeys. One can easily see why your business is thriving. India is quite an adventure and we loved our journey with Chandan.

FEELING SAFE WITH HONEST AND VERY FRIENDLY PEOPLE ADDS UP TO MAKING YOUR TRIP AN UNFORGETTABLE ONE

As I always do when I travel, I look up some guides/drivers on sites such as Tripadvisors and IndiaMike and you're not always lucky with what you get but this time, it was perfect. I wrote to Bunty who seemed to be the best around and told him what I wanted to see and do. He advised me to make a few little changes in my plans which I must thank him for because he really made me save time and money. We settled on a price and there I was, coming out of Delhi airport where Amit, our driver had patiently waited for us holding up a paper sign with my name. Amit is a very nice young man, very polite, drives safely, knows his way around Delhi, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh very well, he was always happy to make little changes in our itinerary to please us. He also always recommended nice restaurants, took us to small places he usually eats at which was awesome. Moreover, as we were going to Varanasi on our own, he called his friend Dinash, a local tuc-tuc driver, who met us there and made our trip really enjoyable. The fact of feeling safe with honest and very friendly people adds up to making your trip an unforgettable one. I will undoubtably hire indiaprivatedriver again on another opportunity. Comme je fais toujours quand je voyage, je cherche des guides et chauffeurs sur des sites comme Tripadvisors et IndiaMike, cependant, vous n'avez pas toujours de la chance avec ce que vous obtenez, mais cette fois, c'était parfait. J'ai écrit à Bunty qui semblait être le meilleur et lui ai dit ce que je voulais faire et voir. Il m'a conseillé quelques modifications dans mes projets et je dois l'en remercier parce qu'il m'a vraiment fait économiser temps et argent. Nous avons fixé un prix et puis j'étais là, l'aéroport de Delhi, où Amit, notre chauffeur avait patiemment attendu avec sa petite affiche en papier avec mon nom. Amit est un jeune homme très sympathique, très poli, qui conduit prudemment, connaît très bien son chemin autour de Delhi, Rajasthan et Uttar Pradesh , il était toujours heureux d'apporter de petits changements dans notre itinéraire lorsque nous le lui demandions. Il a également toujours recommandé de bons restaurants, nous conduisait à de petits endroits oú il mange habituellement . En outre, comme nous allions à Varanasi seuls, il a appelé son ami Dinash, un chauffeur de tuc-tuc local , qui nous a rencontrés et qui a rendu notre voyage très agréable. Le fait de se sentir en sécurité avec des gens honnêtes et très sympas aide à transformer votre voyage en une expérience inoubliable. Je vais sans aucun doute engager indiaprivatedriver à nouveau lors d'un autre voyage. Como sempre faço quando viajo, procuro guias / motoristas em sites como o Tripadvisors e IndiaMike e você nem sempre tem sorte com quem você contrata, mas desta vez, foi perfeito. Eu escrevi ao Bunty que parecia ser o melhor havia encontrado e lhe disse o que eu queria ver e fazer. Ele me aconselhou a fazer algumas pequenas alterações nos meus planos, devo agradecer-lo porque ele realmente me ajudou a economizar tempo e dinheiro. Acertamos um valor e lá estava eu, saindo do aeroporto de Delhi, onde Amit, o motorista estava esperado pacientemente por nós segurando uma placa com meu nome. Amit é um homem jovem muito bom, muito bem educado, dirige com segurança, conhece muito bem Delhi, o Rajasthan e Uttar Pradesh , ele estava sempre disposto em fazer pequenas mudanças em nosso itinerário para nos agradar. Ele também sempre recomendou bons restaurantes, nos levou em pequenos lugares onde ele custumava comer, o que era ótimo. Além disso, como nós estávamos indo para Varanasi por nossa conta, ele chamou seu amigo Dinash, um motorista de tuc-tuc local que nos encontrou lá e tornou a nossa viagem realmente agradável. Sentir-se seguro com pessoas honestas e muito simpáticas contribue em tornar a sua viagem inesquecível. Sem dúvida, contratarei a indiaprivatedriver novamente em outra oportunidade.

EVERYTHING WORKED JUST LIKE CLOCK WORK

I have only one word for the fifteen day experience that I was provided by my driver Bobby....'PERFECT'. Bobby was wonderful! He was always prompt. It was apparent that he ALWAYS had my best interest at heart. He was knowledgeable. His English was excellent. He was patient, and never rushed me. His driving skills were superb, and all round, he was just an incredible person. He is a definite ASSET to your company, and now has become a lifelong friend of mine. I also want to tell you how very impressed I was by YOUR professionalism, and the wonderful experience that you provided for me. The hotels were great...the car was excellent, and everything worked just like clockwork. It was so very kind of you to trade my train ticket for the room in Delhi. I really appreciate your understanding my decision to shorten the trip. (Honestly, I wouldn't even have WANTED to finish it without Bobby's assistance.) Thank you so very much for all of the hard work that you put in to making my dream come true. I will indeed refer your company to ANYONE interested in seeing beautiful India. Namaste, and thank you again!

WE WOULD HAVE NO HESITATION IN RECOMMENDING INDIA PRIVATE DRIVER.

We used this company for a 2 week tour of Rajastan following a separate tour with another UK based company in another area of North India.They provided a vehicle and driver but neither was of the same quality. Our driver, Avtar, was both courteous, humorous and friendly often pointing out things to us on our route which we would have passed by without his guidance. He was also a very safe and considerate driver which given some of the situations we had found ourselves in earlier in our holiday was a huge bonus. Avtar also made a point of being punctual. We also appreciated how quickly you responded to any of our queries which, considering that you were probably driving clients around, was amazing. We do hope your business continues to thrive and we will unreservedly recommend you to anyone who needs a car & driver. We also thank you for the upgrade to a larger car which was generous of you. Good Luck!

AMIT AND BUNTY REALLY WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY TO MAKE OUR HONEYMOON A SPECIAL ONE.

My wife and myself travelled Rajastan with Amit for 17 days in January/2011 and we had a fantastic time! Amit and Bunty really went out of their way to make our honeymoon a special one. Amit was a great driver and introduced to the real India that many tourists on group tours don't see. This was my second visit to India and having a private driver makes all the difference in the world. Being able to drive to temples and visit restaurants and attractions a little off the tourist map was fantastic. We'd really like to thank Amit for introducing us to the dabas, roadside chais, lassis and other amazing foods on our journey. The hotels Bunty booked for us (3 and 4 stars) we're all very clean and included breakfast. The viewing on monuments such as the Taj Mahal and the forts in Rajastan, the camel and tiger safaris, and the temples were unique and we'll remember them for the rest of our lives. While in Udiapur I had a little bit of a medical issue, Amit woke up at 4:30am drove us to the hospital and waited with my wife until I was discharged. Amit is a true friend. He's very honest and tells you exactly how you should bargain, prices you should expect to pay and more. After traveling with India Private Driver/India Private Driver we spent another week traveling on our own and we can say it wasn't even remotely as enjoyable as having a driver. It's really nice to be able to visit where you want, avoid hassles and know you're going to enjoy a fantastic dinner and clean, comfortable room. We have been recommending Amit and Bunty's company to our friends here in the U.S.A. We both hope to travel with them again soon!

WE WON THE LOTTERY BY CONNECTING WITH AMIT SINGH THRU INDIA PRIVATE DRIVER

We recently undertook a month long trip thru Northern India and won the lottery by connecting with Amit Singh thru India Private Driver. Amit was the difference between having an OK experience and having a fabulous experience. We were looking to have someone drive us but ended up with a driver, an interpretor, an advisor and ultimately a very good friend. Amit is a skillful and careful driver but also an honest, caring, conscientious, punctual, courteous, knowledgable, informative, compassionate, likeable, happy, helpful and patient individual. Amit, you are a 10 out of 10. Thanks for a fabulous experience.

I COMMEND YOU FOR A GREAT SERVICE YOU OFFER TOURISTS

I used IndiaPrivateDriver through a recommendation on Trip Adviser. As I started my process of planning my short 6 day Golden Triangle tour, Bunty promptly sent me several suggested itineraries and price guidelines. I choose to book my own hotel/homestays, as I wanted to use accommodations that, again, had been recommended to me. (and ultimately, I'd have no one to blame but myself if they were unsatisfactory). I changed my itinerary several times...and Bunty would quickly adjust the package. My biggest compliment during this process, is the efficiency of our correspondence. Next, the timeliness of my driver, Manu. I had a day tour of Old Delhi on my first day in India, before, I left for a dive trip to the Andaman Islands. On my return, it was Manu waiting at the airport to continue my whirlwind tour. We left at 0800 the next morning for Jaipur, and I was so impressed that Manu was always on time! And, that we survived the insane driving!! I'm still hearing "Honking" in my head!!! He gave me tips on "need of a guide", or, avoiding touts...especially, necessary for what was awaiting the unsuspecting tourist at Fatehpur Sikri. I commend you for a great service you offer tourists. I'm happy for the experience of using a car/driver, and, will gladly recommend you to anyone.

HI COMMEND YOU FOR A GREAT SERVICE YOU OFFER TOURISTS

THE ONLY WAY TO GO!!

This was my first trip to India and I can't imagine seeing India any other way than having a private driver. Firstly, your suggestions as to where to go and the time-line (it would take) of each place were so very very helpful in planning our trip. Also I appreciated the flexibility that our driver had when we made changes. Your speed of implementation before and during our trip in terms of communication was extraordinary. You did everything you said you were going to do and I not once felt worried about anything. To instill such confidence in someone strictly via e-mail is quite remarkable...and you did just that. Our driver Deepak was great. Firstly his driving is to be commended. Driving in India is an experience in itself, and I felt confident that we were in good hands at all times with Deepak at the wheel. His English was fluent, he was very personable and informative, and at the same time seemed to innately know when we wanted to just sit back quietly and take in the view. He had a great sense of humour, was very patient and always on time (even though we often were not). His energy seemed endless, and we were always greeted with smile. As well the driver and guide you arranged for us in Varanasi were both wonderful. Our guide was fluent in English and very helpful. If you should have any future customers who are looking for a reference, please feel free to pass on my e-mail address to them. I would be happy to communicate our experience. I can honestly say our trip through New Delhi, Jaipur, Agra and Varanasi would not have been as good as it was had we travelled any other way. Bunty, you have a great thing going...keep it up!!! I feel so confident in referring you, that you are going in my newsletter to all my clients this month. With much appreciation for a wonderful experience

HTHE ONLY WAY TO GO!!

WE WILL CERTAINLY AGAIN ASK FOR THE SERVICES OF BUNTY, WHENEVER WE COME BACK TO INDIA VIA DELHI!

We (four persons) found the internet site of Bunty by chance, when checking the possibilities to book a driver for our two weeks round trip in Rajasthan. We wanted to book a driver, who drives carefully and respects the traffic rules and on the top of all that, knows the country and is friendly towards the guests – not at all an easy bunch of demands indeed! All Correspondence and services, which were to be agreed was exchanged in a very speedy manner and we got all of our demands fulfilled in return! With Avtar Kumar our expectations were more than filled. Avtar is a very careful driver; he respects the traffic rules (which seem with most of the people driving not to be the case in India…) and has an defensive style of driving. He also knows a lot of the history of different cities and has a wide number of good restaurants in mind, where we could make a stop during the quite long transfers we had in between of our travel destinations. With the assistance of Avtar we could even stand out the roads, which were partially in quite bad condition after the intensive monsoon season of last year. Our route consisted of Delhi, Barathpur, Agra (Taj Mahal), nature reserve (tiger) Ranthambore in Sawai Modhpur, Jaipur, Jodhpur, Nimaj, Udaipur, from where we flew further to Kerala after two interesting, demanding and exhausting weeks, which we could stand out with the friendly and attentive assistance of Avtar Kumar! The car (Toyota Innova) was in a good condition and spacy enough for four persons and luggage. We will certainly again ask for the services of Bunty, whenever we come back to India via Delhi! Thank you ever so much for the uncomplicated, competent and friendly service we could enjoy with you! Best regards

HWE WILL CERTAINLY AGAIN ASK FOR THE SERVICES OF BUNTY, WHENEVER WE COME BACK TO INDIA VIA DELHI!

WE THOROUGHLY AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY, THEY TICK ALL THE BOXES!!

My girlfriend and I recently returned from India where we engaged the services of Bunty's company... We'd just like to say what an amazing and patient driver we had ( Sudarshan ) he not only was polite and punctual but always drove very safely. We found Bunty's details on tripadvisor and I am so very glad we did. Driving in India is truly a memorable experience and we saw so many amazing and beautiful sights. Sudarshan always stopped wherever we wanted, found experienced local guides throughout and generally made our vacation a trip of a lifetime. We thoroughly and highly recommend this company, they tick all the boxes!!

WE FELT SAFE WITH HIS DRIVING SKILLS

Overall we would say Avtar has been a good driver & prompt in his service.‎ We felt safe with his driving skills despite the challenging road conditions of Delhi/Agra. With this, we would like to compliment his professionalism & recommend him especially for first time travellers to India.
