Rather than write a diary, we would like to thank Karni Singh for organising our recent trip to Rajasthan perfectly. We were very pleased with both the driver and the hotels booked, which far exceeded our expectations (given the really good price quoted to us by
Karni). We hope that Italian lovers of India will put their trust in this agency, which will do everything possible to make your trip unforgettable.
As for Rajasthan, we would just like to make one remark about the fair
in Pushkar. We think the best days to attend this event are
the third and the fourth – there are still lots of animals, and on the fourth day the pilgrims also start to arrive. And try to visit the Mandawa area with its havelis. But be careful – the road to / from Delhi to Mandawa is terrible – it takes 7–8 hours for approx. 250 km, so bear that in mind, especially if you do this area at the end of your trip, before returning to Italy.
Have a good trip, everyone – Kri
