WE GOT SO MUCH MORE OUT OF OUR TRIP TO INDIA THAN WE COULD EVER HAVE IMAGINED

While planning a 10 day visit to India visiting our daughter in Gurgaon and traveling the Golden Triangle, we managed to find find Bunty's Indiaprivatedriver homepage. The prompt responses to any question and the good suggestions for itinerary convinced us that Indiaprivatedriver would be the right choice. Amit was our driver and we could not have been more pleased with his services: The car, clean and comfortably, Amit, a super driver, punctual, pleasant and perfect english. We were a family of 5, 3 generations, traveling together and we all enjoyed talking to Amit. Our youngest Valdemar, 15 year old, spend a lot of time talking to Amit while the ladies were shopping. Amit told him about the different gods and showed him shops that were fun for him to see. My mother was in the front seat for the whole trip and she loved talking to Amit about India. Even if we changed our minds about what time to go to dinner, start earlier due to the wheat or similar Amit was always positive and ready with good suggestions. Between the plans we had made and Amit's good suggestions we got so much more out of our trip to India than we could ever have imagined. I will always recommend a private driver when visiting India and I was thrilled to experience how easy it all became with a driver. I will recommend Indiaprivatedriver, Bunty and Amit, to anybody visiting India for business or pleasure.

WE WERE EXPERTLY GUIDED THROUGH OUR NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS BY BUNTY AND MANU

Miles and I are safely back in Australia. I would like to thank you and your driver Manu for your excellent tour that you arranged in a few hours for us at very short notice when my other tour operator suddenly pulled out 2 days before our arrival in Delhi. Manu was friendly with good English. He looked after us guiding us well through our Rajastan holiday. He warned us of hazards and connected us with excellent local guides that explained local sites. Manu listened to our needs and most of the time found a way to satisfy them. He was also honest when our requests were too hard to meet. Miles and I have extensively travelled through many continents and we were aware that India is a challenging but rewarding holiday. We were expertly guided through our necessary adjustments by Bunty and Manu.

MANU WAS AT ALL TIMES PROFESSIONAL AND WE FOUND HIM TOTALLY TRUSTWORTHY

We had an amazing, whirlwind 8 day trip with Manu who we found through Bunty at India Private Driver. Manu was helpful, caring and most of all a top notch safe driver. The roads in India are something to behold but he was at all times professional and we found him totally trustworthy. We had an amazing time in Rajasthan, Delhi and Agra thanks to Manu. Highly recommended. Thanks!

IT WAS A PLEASURE TO BE IN HIS COMPANY

My husband and I travelled to India and chose to travel with Bunty - from our first contact with him he answered all our questions fast and efficently giving us exact details of our trip - making alterations for us and a clear price structure. Our driver Manu met us as arranged at the airport and drove us for the next 12 days. He is a true professional - calm and always careful despite the chaos of indian roads. Not once did we feel any anxiety - he also gave us great advice- at various sights - telling us how to avoid tourist pitfalls and when to hire guides. Always on time -cheerful with a great sense of humour- it was a pleasure to be in his company. We would recommend Bunty a 100% without hesitation and wish him well as he continues to grow his business.

WE WERE VERY SATISFIED WITH HIS SERVICE

Thank you very much for the service that you have given to me. I was very happy along the trip and Amit was a very good and funny driver. He showed us around the places that we wanted to go and we were very satisfied with his service. I will definitely use your service again if I ever go to India in future or recommend to friends and relatives if any of them going to India.

FROM OUR FIRST COMMUNICATION WITH BUNTY WE WERE VERY IMPRESSED

My family and I are just back from a wonderful week in India arranged by Bunty of India Private Driver. From our first communication with Bunty we were very impressed with his responsiveness and willing to create a custom itinerary for us. Bunty not only arranged a driver for us but also guides in Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur. We could not have been more pleased with our driver Avtar. He was waiting for us with a big smile at the Delhi airport and we truly enjoyed his company and insight into life in India. Avtar spoke impeccable English too. Avtar was extremly patient and always went the extra mile to help us with anything we needed. Avtar drove us in a Toyota Innova which had plenty of room for the 3 adults traveling, our luggage (we had a lot!) and a guide. We appreciated the caution Avtar took when driving and highly recommend the service of Bunty and Avtar at India Private Driver.

IT WAS GREAT TO HAVE SOMEONE WE COULD TRUST TO KEEP US AND OUR ITEMS SAFE AND MADE OUR TRIP SO MUCH EASIER

We organised our trip at very short notice (two days prior to departure) and contacted Bunty, the owner, by email. He was incredibly helpful he really listened to what we had in mind and also gave us further sight seeing ideas. When we agreed on a date, pick up place and time (Delhi Airport), he gave us his number, our driver's name, number and car number plate. We felt really safe thanks to all the information we were provided with and when we met our driver at the airport, Bunty called us to wish us a good trip. Our driver, Neeraj (Bobby), was the nicest and most helpful man we could hope for! He had something to tell us for every place we went to and great advice about things to see and what to pay for and how much we should spend on certain things (which we had had a bit of trouble figuring out throughout our stay in India!). With our agreement, he organised a lovely guide to show us around Agra and offered to take us to places we had not heard of. It was great to have someone we could trust to keep us and our items safe and made our trip so much easier. Bunty called us again at the end of our trip to make sure we had enjoyed our visits. It was strange leaving the Lovely Bobby after 4 days driving places with him, we missed him! Please leave your driver with a generous tip, they truly deserve it! We would definitely contact Bunty again for further visits, this is a great little company that deserve all the luck in the world!

WE CANNOT TALK HIGHLY ENOUGH OF YOUR SERVICES YOU PROVIDED FOR US

Greg and I are safely home after an amazing time in your extraordinary country. We cannot talk highly enough of your services you provided for us. The tour, the accommodation and the train tickets - it took ALL our pressure away! We had a fabulous time with Bobby - we felt we made a good friend out of Bobby. His professionalism, honesty and great sense of humour made our whole trip worth while. We wished he could have come with us to Darjeeling and Kolkata!!!!! His safe driving made us feel safe and never pushed us to do things - great guy. We have already talked to our friends and family about your services and Bobby's fabulous service and have no hesitation in recommending you and Bobby - excellent package!!! Please pass on our warm wishes to Bobby and we will be sending him a package from New Zealand as soon as we get settled. Once again Bunty, a big thanks from the Kiwis from down under and would recommend Bobby as top priority!!

A TOTALLY FABULOUS HOLIDAY THANKS TO BUNTY AND AVTAR’S ENTHUSIASM AND PROFESSIONALISM

Where do I start? From my first email communication with Bunty in early 2013 when I was starting to plan our 10 day personalised tour of Rajasthan for 4 of us, I was impressed with Bunty’s prompt and friendly responses. He was easy to communicate with in all aspects of my enquiries and provided me with full details of the hotels he was booking for us (which were all absolutely fantastic), the costing of our tour, and the driver’s name and details prior to our arrival date. And then when we arrived at the Delhi airport very late at night in 2013, all very tired and shattered from our long day’s journey, we were greeted by our lovely driver Avtar. From the minute we met Avtar we were all highly impressed with his personal attentiveness, personal grooming and friendly disposition. The poor man was literally ‘thrown in the deep end’ from the onset with 4 very excited Ausies who barraged him with questions and requests about India and most importantly where we could get some beers, and I’m sure we gave him a few quiet giggles at times. Within a couple of days into our tour Avtar eased into our banter and joined in our sometimes long conversations while travelling from 1 city to the next sharing some of his life with us about his lovely family. He kept the men happy and always sourced an Indian Bottle shop at the end of each day’s activities to get beer for us to take back to our hotels, and kept us ladies happy by taking us to all the shopping places we wanted to see (plus more). Avtar is an incredibly safe and considerate driver and never rushed us to get from 1 place to the next. He provided us with guidance and invaluable tips at every tourist place on what to look out for and what to avoid to keep us safe. He is an sincere man who displays a genuine understanding of his customers needs and well worth a good tip at the end of the journey. For anyone reading this review, feel confident in booking with this company for your ‘private driver Indian trip’ as you won’t be disappointed. And a big thanks to you Bunty and Avtar for making our trip perfect.

HE SHOWED US PLACES THAT VERY FEW TOURISTS KNOW ABOUT BUT WERE AMAZING TO VISIT

I'm the kind of traveler that wants to arrange everything on his own, without any help. So I started planning a short trip to India myself, but soon came along this website, not knowing if I would get any reaction at all and took a shot. Planning a trip in India on my own was harder than I thought, especially transport is difficult to find. To my surprise I almost immediately got an answer, talked about what our expections were, the budget, immediately received an itinerary, with all the details about our tour to Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, and back to Delhi. When arriving at the airport our driver Avtar picked us up. He was always very polite, a real gentleman and had a great sense of humor, we laughed a lot during our trips. He also showed us places that very few tourists know about but were amazing to visit. We also met other people who traveled with other companies, they complained a lot about the driver's poor English, bad hotels, bad driving, .... well Avtar's English was better than ours, the hotels were really great, especially in Jaipur, and Avtar's driving was perfect. If I would ever go back to India, I would not hesitate to contact Bunty again, I am sure everything will be arranged perfecty as it was during our trip.

HE MADE SURE WE HAD A GOOD EXPERIENCE IN INDIA

We heard about India Private Driver from a group of satisfied travelers in Portland, Oregon and are so glad we took their advice to check in with Bunty. Our 2013 tour in India was part of a much longer travel itinerary so we appreciated Bunty's willingness to respond to our early booking and to deal with changes in our schedule later in the process. It was also a great convenience to let him handle the hotel bookings. One more thing not to have to worry about and all his arrangements worked smoothly! My husband and I had some health issues during the trip (nothing to do with India I hasten to add) and, really, the ten days could have been a disaster. Not so. Our driver, Bobby, not only helped us survive, he also made sure we had a good experience in India. He was always cheerful, calm and competent. His driving skills -- and his patience with traffic conditions that would have had westerners running away screaming -- were impressive. He also listened well to what we were interested in seeing and was a great help in planning daily activities. He gave us good advice about when to hire a guide and where to get a good meal. He was always on time to meet us. He found us ATMs and pharmacies and the Fed Ex office. He took our questions about life in India seriously and allowed us to tell him something about life in Oregon. Our thanks to Bunty and Bobby for making our time in India truly a highlight of our around-the-world adventure

WE FELT WELL WITH HIM ON THE WHOLE TOUR

We had ordered a car+driver tour for 2 persons from 21 to 29, the tour started in Delhi with some City tours, then continued to Agra and ended in Jaipur. The price was good. We had a Toyota Innova, a fine and clean white and modern car with AC. Our driver Pawan Kumar was a good english speaking driver, he is a safe and well considered driver, very helpful, polite, pleasant and punctual. His recommandations for shopping were correct and really good. He gave us a lot of informations like a tour guide. We felt well with him on the whole tour. I can recommend this company India Private Driver and his driver Pawan unconditional. The tour was a great experience.
