My wife and I did this tour in Feb/March 2026. This tour greatly exceeded my wildest expectations! It was incredible from start to finish and we loved every minute of it! •Old Delhi (pre-tour) was an amazing experience; so many new sights, from bullock carts to human-powered carts to vast waves of pedestrians to every kind…
We received an email letting us know we would no longer be staying at the iconic Oberoi Udaivilas as they are "unable to host your group as planned". Now we will be three nights at the RAAS Devigarh. This is very disappointing. Any suggestions of how to handle this with Tauck? There appears to be a large price difference…
Shopping in India – what I wish I had known – and what I actually bought. Will try to add photos later.... In general, I hate shopping – but India was fabulous. I actually wish I had bought more. Here’s a recap of what I bought, where, for how much, and my thoughts now that I’m back home. Surprisingly, I suggest shopping…
A few things I wish I had known in advance: 1) Medicine is widely available at a fraction of what we pay (Wegovy for $183 a month, for example). Buy what you need in Mumbai, if that’s your last stop. I used Alankar Chemists (3-B, Stadium House, Churchgate. A 15 minute walk from the Oberoi.) and they delivered my order to…

Robin & Rajan from Phoenix on this tour. Anyone else?

You can see the beginning of our trip at https://www.mikeandjudytravel.com/2024-3India-01.htm I usually improve the blog after we get home so…
We are very excited to be going on this trip in January and I was wondering what inoculations (if any) everyone took. Thanks!
Hello, this is my first Tauck trip. Although I have traveled with other companies, Tauck had the best itinerary for what I wanted to see and how I wanted to travel. I'm arriving the evening of October 24, 2 days before the trip officially starts. When I visited Bhutan, 10 years ago, I flew into New Delhi a day early and…
On the flights within the country of India when the duffel was required and one carry on allowed up to 15 pounds, can you still take a "hand carry" or personal purse type item?
