Outstanding Experience with Pintu and Delhi Private Tour - Having visited India over 30 times, I can confidently say this was my best experience with a driver. Pintu, who drove us from Delhi to Jaipur and then to Agra to visit the Taj Mahal and other monuments, truly exceeded our expectations. Pintu was not only punctual and highly professional, but he also took the extra step of recommending restaurants that perfectly suited my Malaysian palate. What impressed me most was his integrity—he didn’t take us to any shops for affiliate sales, which is a common practice among drivers. He adhered to our itinerary without deviation and even gave us timely warnings about potential scams at tourist spots, which proved invaluable. His sense of responsibility made us feel secure throughout the trip. More than just a driver, Pintu’s dedication made him an essential part of our journey, ensuring we were comfortable and safe at all times. I would also like to express my gratitude to Manoj, the owner of Delhi Private Tour, who diligently checked in with us every day via text to ensure everything was going smoothly. His commitment to customer satisfaction was evident. I highly recommend Delhi Private Tour and Pintu to all my friends in Malaysia and Singapore seeking a reliable and exceptional tour experience in India.

Great way to explore the heart of India - Recently had the opportunity to experience this Golden Triangle tour with a few friends. After researching the available options online, the offer by Private Driver India has won me over as it offers a well balanced itinerary together with all necessary amenities like airconditioned transportation, tour guides and organized accommodation in each city. The tour guides have enriched our tour by offering rich historical details of the visited landmarks, and were also open to answer any additional questions we had. The accommodations were comfortable, and always in reputable hotels. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, offering a good balance of sightseeing and relaxation. A special mention goes to our private driver, Pintu, whose punctuality and professionalism truly stood out. Pintu ensured that we were always on schedule, despite the busy streets of India, allowing us to make the most of our time at each destination. He always had cold water on hand for us, to ease the thirst while sightseeing in India's heat. Even though the itinerary was already lined out, he was also open to make additional stops in case that something has piqued our interest on the way. I can highly recommend this tour, especially to people who are looking for a stress free experience while exploring the heart of India. And if you’re lucky enough to have Pintu as your driver, you’re in for a great experience!

Very good deal and worth the price. - We can wholeheartedly recommend this tour for anyone visiting India. The owner of the company Manoj and the driver assigned to us Pintu were extremely warm, friendly and welcoming. They made sure that we felt comfortable during the complete trip. We even got an upgrade to the hotels that were booked for us. Manoj met us in the beginning and asked us everyday if the hotel and tour was in order. This provided ample opportunity to give feedback, but usually everything was perfect, so we didn't have anything bad to say. Pintu received us at the airport and even waited two and half hours at the airport due to flight delays. He had cold water on hand all the time which really helped during the heat. He was always punctual, flexible, patient and polite. His company was pleasant and he ensured the smooth passage of the tour. The tour had arranged for local guides at each city and town. These guides were knowledgeable and told us about the history of all the monuments. Usually, they also took us to a souvenir shop at the end, in case we were interested in buying something. Overall, this tour is a good deal. You get great hotels, great guides and a private driver on hand for the whole trip looking out for you.

It was a very interesting trip though I had concerns, I didn't know where I was going, but it was fun in the end. - I drove to Delhi according to my plan at first, and I happened to come to this driver who travels there from his name, we agreed a price, and one day in Delhi he offered me a broader plan, including Agra, Pegor, whose face is more expensive, but the guy didn't come back to him from the summary, he wanted to give a service with all his heart, he wanted to point out that I was a light satisfied with him as a person, and a man, an honest person, a believer, a patient person and cares about you. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a trip with 100% time utilization and especially the patience to let you be satisfied with your trip.

Excellent experience 10 And praise! - Great experience with the ABHI driver who picked me up at Delhi airport and accompanied me between tourist attractions but also to authentic places and not beaten by tourists. When I was alone I always felt comfortable even in non-tourist areas. Abhi was always punctual, polite and professional. The car is very comfortable and always clean. The service, booked from Italy exceeded our expectations. The driver recommended various restaurants where we always ate well. In addition, we are always entrusted to expert guides in tourist attractions, Explaining how we had to behave and how much we had to pay... Recommendation this tour and this driver for single women, couples or families.... Surely they will be able to accommodate you according to your needs.

Amit - No.1 Private Driver and Guide! - I had the best experience having Amit as my private driver for the start of my solo adventure to India. I was so appreciative of his professional and attentive approach. He was always happy to provide good advice on places to visit (or not), and gave well informed reasons. He arranged additional local guides at select locations to give me a real in-depth understanding of the historic significance of places I was visiting. Every guide he introduced me to was fantastic, all very keen to provide me with the absolute best experience, giving me wonderful insights that aren't readily available in written tour guides. I spent 5 days with Amit, visiting Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. He helped to alleviate the initial shock that you get when first arriving in Delhi. Being a solo traveller, I always felt 100% safe traveling with Amit. He was always dressed in his uniform (even when it was 30+ degrees), the car was always clean, we listened to great Indian music and he had bottled water on hand if I needed it. I would highly recommend Amit as a private driver and guide. After 5 days he felt like family. I am off to Rishikesh next but Amit has let me know that he is available to assist if I need his advice...his only a WhatsApp message anyway. Thank you Amit, so glad to have met you and had the good fortunate to have you as my allocated guide.

Wheelchair accessible travel with Manoj - Manoj’s service as a private driver during our 7-day Golden Triangle tour was impeccable. His punctuality, flexibility, and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of our journey ran smoothly. His clean, air-conditioned car was always stocked with water, and he went out of his way to make our experience as comfortable as possible. Traveling as a family of four, including a wheelchair user, Manoj’s care and attentiveness were invaluable. He assisted with the wheelchair at every stop and tailored the itinerary to ensure that accessibility was never a concern. From Delhi to Agra and Jaipur, Manoj made sure that we could explore each city comfortably and without any stress. What made the trip even more special was Manoj’s deep knowledge of India’s history and culture. Whether we were visiting iconic sites like the Taj Mahal or lesser-known gems, his insights added depth to our experience. He also introduced us to fantastic local eateries and hidden spots that we would have missed otherwise. For anyone looking to explore India with personalized service and care, Manoj is an exceptional choice.
