As a person living far from my home country, many a times I travel more away from my country. Hence, this India trip was special, I finally planned a family trip with some help and visited Rajasthan and Gujarat.

We booked our flights, hotels and car for driving between different cities with Veena World. This was a customized tour package with them. This is not paid promotion.

Customize trip helps us to decide our itinerary along with their travel managers. This was mighty convenient. We decided the route, the hotels and the number of days we want to travel. We also got three hotel options at every place. Package covered breakfast and dinners for all the ten days and gave us opportunity to try something local during the day. Package doesn’t cover entrance tickets to any of the tourist places we visited. But the car ride for 10 days was extremely convenient for a family with aging parents and a toddler. We didn’t have to pay any tolls or for fuel in those 10days. We would arrange with the driver every night, when we should meet up the next day and roll with the day.
