FROM THE MOMENT WE FIRST MADE CONTACT WITH YOU, YOU HANDLED OUR REQUIREMENTS AND REQUESTS PERFECTLY
Having just returned from 2 weeks working and holidaying in India we would like to thank you for organising our car and driver so efficiently and helpfully. From the moment we first made contact with you, you handled our requirements and requests perfectly. Our driver was called Avtar and I would recommend him to anyone - he was exceedingly polite, kind and helpful and looked after us so well. As three women travelling alone he made sure we were safe at all times. He was also able to answer our many questions about India. He drives so carefully negotiating the chaotic Indian roads with patience and humour. Our car was comfortable and clean and having originally thought we would travel by train, we were so happy we switched plans to a car as it allowed us to fit much more into our limited time and to get to exactly where we wanted! If we return to Delhi we would definitely want Avtar as our driver again and would recommend this company to all friends. Kind regards
WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND TRAVELING WITH INDIAN PRIVATE DRIVER
Gian was a fabulous driver and made our trip around Rajasthan very enjoyable. He was a gentleman and made every effort to make us comfortable. He even went above and beyond, calling around hotels in Jodphur when our own booked accommodation was suddenly unavailable. We highly recommend traveling with Indian Private Driver. Thanks Bunty. Regards to Gian as well. Cheers,
CAN'T IMAGINE A BETTER HOST TO TAKE YOU AROUND INDIA
I just want to say thankyou for providing such a great experience for us on our tour of North India. From when we started to put the itinerary together , your responsiveness and helpfulness with customising exactly what we wanted assisted in choosing your services. From the moment that Kulbir (Mr Cool) our driver met us at the airport he was very professional, punctual, with a great sense of humour and great customer service. Kulbir was also flexible by giving us options to see and do things that suited us at each city. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Kulbir. He prepared us for each tour site by advising us of what to be wary of which put us at ease. The car was very clean and comfortable. Can't imagine a better host to take you around India. Highly recommend Kulbir as a driver and would use him again next time we visit North India. Regards
BUNTY'S INDIA PRIVATE DRIVER WAS THE BEST WE COULD HAVE ASKED FOR
Our experience with Naresh was wonderful. Naresh was very informative when it came time to eat and bathroom breaks. I would very much recommend Naresh in the future to anybody travelling to India. His english was very strong, and he was able to explain everything we saw on the way to Agra. Naresh was also helpful when it came to hiring a tour guide. Our group would ask Naresh if he would recommend hiring a tour guide or is this something we can observe on our own. When we were at the Taj Naresh recommended that we use a tour guide, and our group was very happy that we did. There were so many small details that one would miss if not for a tour guide. Naresh was also very informative about what to give for tip to the tour guides as well as in restaurants and people we have took pictures with. Bunty was also very accommodating to change our itinerary to view the monuments we wanted to see. Our group was able to personalize what we saw and when. Overall our experience with Bunty's India Private Driver was the best we could have asked for and would recommend hiring his company for all your private driving needs.
WE WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND INDIA PRIVATE DRIVER TO ANYONE CONSIDERING A TRIP TO INDIA
We contacted Bunty at India Private Driver when we were starting to plan our trip to India. Bunty was very helpful with ideas on what to see and patient throughout all of the back and forth communication we needed to settle on our itinerary. Bunty even arranged for our train tickets, all at a reasonable price and with speedy responses. We were happy to feel confident that all would go as planned once we arrived in India and weren’t disappointed. Our driver, Manu, picked us up at the airport after midnight, took us to our hotel, and made sure we were properly settled before heading home. Manu was an amazing driver throughout our tours of Delhi, Jaipur, Ranthambore, Bharatpur (don’t miss the fabulous Keoladeo National Park), Agra, and back to Delhi. We never felt unsafe no matter what was going on around us. Manu was always a calm and courteous driver, allowing us to enjoy the beauty of India and the “functional chaos” of its roads without worry. We greatly appreciated Manu’s ideas on places to see, restaurants to try, willingness to take us anywhere, musical taste, and his ever-watchful eye and pointers to keep us safe. We would not hesitate to recommend India Private Driver to anyone considering a trip to India. Bunty and Manu combined to make our tour both memorable and enjoyable, one that we’ll remember with pleasure throughout our lives.
WE HAD A SUPER TRIP AND WERE DELIGHTED WITH INDIA PRIVATE DRIVER
Deepak was an excellent driver, and we got on with him very well. We never felt unsafe and were totally confident in his driving. He made good suggestions about visits and in what order. He was always clear about where he would be parked, and was always waiting for us. He was polite and his English is pretty good and we did have fun with him. If asked, he also made good recommendations of where to eat at lunchtime but was never pushy and we were happy with that. He is a good driver and we can recommend him. We had a super trip and were delighted with India Private Driver. Bunty answered all our questions prompty and efficientlyand came up with good suggestions - we would be happy to recommend them to others. Yours sincerely
INCREDIBLE INDIA
We were extremely happy with our decision to utilize Bunty’s services, and in particular, our driver, “Bobby.” Bobby was very reliable, courteous and punctual. I always felt comfortable knowing that I could count on Bobby to get us to our destinations. Our stay in India consisted of visits to various cities. This would have been an extremely difficult undertaking, had it not been for Bobby’s truly professional services. He performed his duties with enthusiasm and made our trip a wonderful experience. I would not hesitate to recommend Bunty’s services to anyone in need of a driver. Thank You!
WE FELT VERY SAFE WITH AMIT AMIDST THE CHAOS OF DRIVING IN INDIA
At first we were unsure about hiring a driver for our 3 week holiday to India, but after much surfing of the internet, decided to put our trust in Bunty at (indiaprivatedriver.com) and it turned out to be probably the best decision that we could make. We exchanged many e mails in preparation for our trip with Bunty's suggestions helping us to make the best use of our time in India. When we arrived, Amit, our driver, was at the airport waiting for us (we were later to find out that he was ALWAYS on time and never kept us waiting). Our first stop was to pick up an Indian SIM card for our phone which Amit sorted out without problem (this is a must as Indian calls are so cheap, even a 5 min call to UK only cost about 50pence) - this was a great help as we could always be contacted/contact Amit when necessary. Amit was brilliant - he spoke excellent English, told us where to go/ not to go when we were out and about on our own, advised us about pick-pockets in local areas, arranged tour guides when we wanted but also advised us when we didn't need a guide. He was extremely polite, always punctual and the car (Toyota Innova) was always clean, tidy and well maintained. We felt very safe with Amit amidst the chaos of driving in India and although driving distances were long, time passed quickly chatting to Amit about India and the UK. We would definitely use Amit and Bunty's services again and have no hesitation in recommending them to other travellers.
HE WAS ALWAYS THERE WHEN WE NEEDED HIM, BUT NEVER INTRUSIVE
From our first inquiry with Bunty until our bittersweet parting with our driver, Bobby, our trip to India was better than my friend and I ever imagined. Bunty was very responsive to my emails, and while I was a bit apprehensive about not putting down a deposit to hold our booking, I did not have to worry at all. Bobby was with us for 14 days. He was patient, informative, knowledgeable, and a very good driver on the somewhat scary roads of India. He made very good suggestions for us to alter our itinerary, booked some hotels for us, ironed out any problems (which were few and not driver related). He knew where to stop on the road for meals and usable toilets, advised us where to take guides and where they are not needed. He was always there when we needed him, but never intrusive. I would never travel in India any other way. We saw big buses at the tourist spots and were so happy not to be part of that mob scene. I would highly recommend using India Private Driver and Bunty to have a memorable trip to India. Good luck with your growing business...
YOUR SERVICE LET ME MAXIMIZE MY TIME SEEING THE SIGHTS AND EXPERIENCING INDIA
I would like to let you know how happy I am with the service you provided. I have been wanting to travel to India for quite some time. I did not want to get on one of the organized bus tours because I wanted more flexibility and the chance to experience India with more interaction with local people. I found your website with a google search and I am so happy I did. You had sample itineraries but also offered the flexibility of creating your own. As I read more about the areas I wanted to visit, I kept changing the plan and you were very accommodating. The driver you provided, Gian Chand, could not have been more helpful. He was always there to help if I needed but also gave me the freedom of exploring on my own. He was very informative and provided safe travel through many of the areas that would have been quite challenging to a visitor. I thought about traveling on my own with the rail system, but I would have lost so much time trying to figure it out and then waiting for the right train with transportation to and from the guesthouses, selecting your service was a no brainer. It let me maximize my time seeing the sights and experiencing India. I would highly recommend your service to anyone traveling to India. Thank you very much,
HAVING AMIT WITH US WAS INDISPENSIBLE TO OUR OVERALL EXPERIENCE
We’re so glad to have used India Private Driver services during our week long trip in the North. We could not have asked for a better person to guide us than Amit. From day 1, Amit was very courteous and punctual. We felt safe navigating the country with him. He was always eager to answer our questions about the country and its people. Amit went above and beyond what we expected from his services - in addition to driving us in between cities, he helped us find a white water rafting service in Rishikesh at a very reasonable price, set us up with a tour guide in Agra who was very knowledgeable, and gave us excellent restaurant recommendations in the various cities. Furthermore, he also taught us about cultural nuances, religious significance of festivals and rituals, and even a little bit about the country’s obsession - cricket! All in all, having Amit with us was indispensible to our overall experience, and our India experience would not have been the same without his services.
THIS COMPANY MADE OUR TRIP SO MUCH MORE SMOOTH AND ENJOYABLE
We travelled with India Private Driver to Delhi, Rishikesh, Agra and Jaipur. We were incredibly impressed with their services and, specifically, those of our driver, Amit. Amit was attentive, accommodating and was even accessible for questions/advice on guides after our journey with him was over. He is a friendly man, knowledgeable about the areas we travelled and is a very, very proficient driver. This company made our trip so much more smooth and enjoyable!
