Hello, Shalu! Your team sounds promising and after reading it all, it seems that you all know what to do and how to do it. Being a very different country as of language, culture, religion and so on, it is often difficult for prospective tourists to decide on booking any holidays in Asia. Congratulations on your project, though, you really did catch my attention.
Hi Shalu, congratulations on this venture! It’s about time you started this 🙂 It’s always good to have a fellow blogger involved in organizing holidays. I’ll definitely contact you, if I plan another India tour. And I’ll be sure to share thing info with anyone planning a trip there. All the best, Shalu!
