WE CAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOUR SERVICES TO ANYONE NEEDING A PERSONALISED TOUR

Just a note to say a big thank you for making our recent visit to Delhi, Agra and Jaipur so successful. Our driver Avtar was extremely supportive in making sure that we were comfortable and experienced all that we were interested in seeing. We are glad we chose the larger vehicle option as it made the trip that much more comfortable and visual, so glad we did not take the train. We can highly recommend your services to anyone needing a personalised tour. Thank you again and see you when we are next in India.

DAY AFTER DAY HE BECAME LIKE A FRIEND, NOT A SIMPLE DRIVER

Our sincere thanks to Bunty, perfect organiser of our three week trip to Rajasthan. It is not easy to find a reliable man like Bunty. We proposed our itinerary and he fine-tuned it with us. Our driver was Pawan Kumar. He was friendly, smart, skillful, prudent and drove us with expertise through the chaotic traffic of Indian roads. Every day he was on time and his patience was invaluable to fulfill all our needs. Day after day he became like a friend, not a simple driver. Now we are sad because we have flown back home, but we are going to visit again India, obviously with the support of Bunty and his fantastic drivers.

WE WERE INCREDIBLY IMPRESSED WITH EVERY ASPECT OF OUR TRIP

My friend and I just returned from a ten day trip around Rajasthan. We traveled with Amit from India Private Driver. We were incredibly impressed with every aspect of our trip from the planning stages with Bunty to the final drop off at Delhi airport. Bunty was incredibly patient and accommodating as we made tweaks to our itinerary right up to our arrival in India. Amit was wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable, patient and flexible. He was very organized and would make a list of all of the sights and shops we would visit the following day so we would not miss a thing! He kept the car in impeccable shape, cleaning it daily. He was able to fix a minor problem with the car in a matter of minutes. He also took precautions when it came to our safety. Amit noticed a tiny bulge in the tire (I certainly would not have ever seen it!) And decided to get a brand new tire just to be safe. Amit made great restaurant suggestions, the hotels were wonderful and the shops were all interesting. I highly recommend this company, they were wonderful!

HE WAS ALWAYS THERE TO HELP AND PROVIDE SOME SUGGESTIONS

A friend and myself traveled for 7 days in Northern India and Bunty arranged everything for us. What I truly appreciated is that he always responded by email and was always there to help and provide some suggestions. He has a no-nonsense approach and what he promises he delivers, no more no less. We spent 7 days with Manu, a wonderful driver and a happy man. He would recommend things we did not know and he was always on time and with a happy face. He is an excellent driver, which is very important when driving in India. I fully recommend using Bunty's services.

WE FELT VERY COMFORTABLE AND RELAXED OUR ENTIRE TRIP

After speaking with a few different private drivers for India my friend and I decided to use Bunty's service. We booked the longest trip (34 days) they had ever done and we were very happy with it! We started in Delhi then went to Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. Our driver Bobby spoke great English and was more than capabale to handle the crazy roads of India. We felt very comfortable and relaxed our entire trip in India thanks to Bunty and Bobby. If you are looking for a great and affordable company that will help you love your trip in India, then please go with India Private Driver and Bunty! Thanks again for a great trip.

I CANNOT PRAISE THEM ENOUGH FOR THE WONDERFUL TRIP WE HAD

We just want to thank you for a wonderful 9 day tour of Delhi, Pushkar, Udaipur, Jaipur and Agra. There were a lot of back and forth emails from Bunty and us and Mr. Bunty gave us a lot of suggestions regarding our itinerary. Our driver Mr. Amit Singh (We found out that he is the brother of Mr. Bunty) was very helpful and informative about everything. He used to inform us one day earlier, what we would be doing the next day, which places would we be going to and always gave us tips about avoiding the fake guides and suggested many places where we wanted to taste some particular food. In some cities, where we wanted to visit some specific places which were not included in the original plan, Mr. Amit was very helpful in finding out about the places and taking us there. We had our 2 year old son with us and Mr. Amit was helpful in getting us bigger rooms wherever possible so that our son could have some space to play. After spending 9 days with Mr. Amit, he became more like a friend rather than our driver. Our whole trip was wonderful with lots of great memories and I completely credit Mr. Bunty and his company for this excellent experience. Mr. Bunty provides an excellent service from the point of landing at Delhi airport till the drop off at Delhi airport. It’s hard to say in words how much good service we had received from Mr. Amit and Mr. Bunty. I cannot praise them enough for the wonderful trip we had. When we told our friends about our trip, they did not believe that we received such a great service for such a great price. I will definitely recommend Mr. Bunty to everyone for their next trip to India and if we had to do it again in the near future, we will definitely contact Mr. Bunty again. Thanks,

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN RECOMMENDING YOUR SERVICES TO OTHERS

We are now back in England after a very enjoyable trip to India and hope to return next year to travel North this time, (after Manu's recommendation). After being promptly being picked up at the airport by our driver, Manu, we very soon came to realise within a couple of days, that your experience of India can pretty much be made or broken by your driver. Having a good, reliable driver with excellent recommendations that are trustworthy, is key to enjoying a trip in a place like India and that is exactly what we received with Manu. We opted for a tour of Rajasthan from Delhi travelling down to Ahmadabad where we were dropped off. This was a long trip and at all times, Manu was reliable, patient and drove safely. He also went the extra mile to locate points of interest that were off the beaten track and not often visited by tourists and therefore were not easy to locate. In addition, he also organised hotels in a couple of the places we had not arranged accommodation which were all excellent. I could go on and on about the small things such as the fact he was never, ever late, and gave us many tips to avoid hassles in the towns, and so on, but I think these things should be experienced first hand. I have no hesitation in recommending your services to others and I will be happy to be contacted by any potential clients to discuss. When we return to India, I will not be doing any research on drivers as I will be coming directly to you to organise my next trip to ensure the best experience possible in India. Many thanks and I wish you both all the success.

OUR DRIVER WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL AND HANDLED ALL THAT INDIAN DRIVING COULD THROW AT HIM

My wife and I decided to take a last minute trip to India and booked it on only a few days notice. We decided with our limited 13 day timeline we would need a private driver to see the most in the quickest time and maintain flexibility. We found India Private Driver online and requested intinerary and quote from the service after also checking with alternative services. Within an hour we got the quote from Bunty and we found it to be straightforward and the price was reasonable for the flexibility it provided. Once we decided on the service Bunty was very responsive in the subsequent emails to help us organize a itinerary for the trip. He then gave us our driver's phone number and arranged for him to pick us up in the airport at 1am in Delhi which was really nice after flying all day from the U.S. Having traveled all over the world and seeing how people drive in many countries, nothing compares to the driving in India. The road has many obstacles including aggressive drivers, cows, monkeys, goats, bikes, rickshaws, trucks, potholes, and whatever else you could imagine and can't imagine. An experienced, quality private driver is a requisite for survival on the road. Our driver was extremely professional and handled all that Indian driving could throw at him. He took us anywhere we asked him and helped us navigate the country. Our trip wouldn't have been the success it was without the service and quality driver. Bottomline: If you are on a time crunch and need a driver, you will get professional service from India Private Driver.

WE HAVE MANY WONDERFUL MEMORIES (AND PHOTOS!) OF ALL THE SIGHTS WE SAW AND THE PEOPLE WE MET

Hi Bunty, We have just returned from our trip to India. We had a wonderful time due in no small measure to your arrangements and our excellent driver Avtar who did so much for us. Most of the hotels exceeded our expectations both for facilities and for the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. We particularly liked Khajuraho and Ranthambore. A special mention for the Hotel Sohi Residency in Delhi who allowed Jenny to stay in the room until 6pm as she wasn't feeling well which was much appreciated. We have many wonderful memories (and photos!) of all the sights we saw and the people we met. Thank you again.

BOBBY OUR DRIVER HAS BECOME A FRIEND AND I'M SURE WE WILL KEEP IN CONTACT

I was going to drive myself in India but when I saw a TV programme in the UK about driving in India I quickly changed my mind! So, I contacted Bunty and with impeccable speed he had me an itinerary and a properly costed quotation - so we all knew where we stood from day one. Bobby our driver has become a friend and I'm sure we will keep in contact. What really helped get us going was Bobby's profound interest and passion for cricket and before we even got to the car at Delhi Airport I was happily reminding him of England's 4-0 thrashing of India a few weeks earlier! Throughout our 3 weeks Bobby was wonderful company, attentive, always on time and always there when you needed him. He has this knack of suddenly appearing out of a crowd when you need him! Unlike other tours we have taken in the Far East, Bobby did not intrude. We were a bit worried that he would take us to endless shops and factories that we did not want to go to - this never happened. Instead, each day we discussed where we wanted to go and he would offer further ideas. We had some great meals out with Bobby and, like I say, regarded Bobby as a friend. When he told us that he had become a dad we were almost as excited as he was. When we said he should go home to be with his family he was having none of it and insisted that he completed the tour with us. He was a great driver and dealt calmly with all the things that Indian roads throw at you - be it a camel. cow, dog or another car coming up the same carriageway towards you. So thank you Bobby and Bunty.

KULDEEP WAS ALL WE HOPED FOR, AND MUCH MORE

Kuldeep was all we hoped for, and much more. He was right on time to pick us up, and we found his driving to be very smooth, safe, and comfortable, especially when compared to the craziness of Delhi traffic! He was very quiet and respectful, but full of information, and suggestions when called upon. His English was very good, and we had no trouble understanding each other at all. We made a well timed rest/lunch stop at a rather expensive, very touristy place on the way to Agra. I suppose it would have suited the majority of your clients, but my friend and I would have preffered something less expensive, more Indian, and less touristy. We went past many dhabas which looked more like our kind of place. But this is a very minor point, and I know we only have ourselves to blame, as Kuldeep was very responsive to our other requests. We had originally planned to see Fatepur Sikri on Day Two, but Kuldeep suggested visiting on the way to Agra instead,and this turned out to be a wonderful change of plans,with everything fitting in perfectly time-wise. My friend was very happy with his return journey to Delhi airport the next day,and was relieved to not have to deal with navigating his way by himself. I would highly recommend your, and in paricular Kuldeep's, services to anyone I know, and hope to use your company again myself in the future.
