"Me and my wife would like to share our fabulous experience we shared with M/s. L'orient Travels. we had the best of time and enjoyment in such a short period. We were put on to a very class hotel. The food was also lip smacking. We are once again looking forward to go on another tour with M/s. L'oreint travels. And not to forget the staff at L'orient was very supportive and helpful".
"Thanks again for setting up the trip to Varanasi! Everything went well - the Hotel was good, the guide kompetent and the car clean. Varanasi was very impressive - I experienced it as a city that is truly conveying India's spirituality".
"We hdd a wonderfull experience in India, from the exotic luxury hotels to the more modest accommodations in the cities of our personal tour. The success of our 'roots quest' would have been impossible without your personal guiding. Transport arrangements were great. Indian drivers are awesome! Thanks again for memorable journey.

"What an incredible month in India! Your planning for our tour of the 'Golden Triangle' + Varanasi was superb: good city guides and nice drivers. But the big wow for us was finding our mother's and greandparents roots here in Lucknow, Bareilly, Nainital and Pauri! Hector - You are a good sleuth and we loved having you with us! Needless to say, we couldn't have done it without you".

I will recommend you to folks who are coming to India later this year. If you want I can try to pass a note to the US Embassy in Delhi, in Kuala Lumpur and a travel agent I use in Florida for our European vacations. Do you have a website I can pass along?

We are home. Thank you for this trip. Everything was fine, good planning, excepting the fog. I already recommended you to some people from Toronto.

Thank you for your thoughtful message. It has been a challenge synthesizing all we have experienced, coping with the jet lag, grudgingly inching our way back into the daily routine and all the while telling our stories and showing our pictures to family and friends. It was truly a great adventure, overwhelming at points, exhilarating at others, thought provoking, a bombardment of the senses and an escape to tranquility and a state of inner peace. It is still a struggle to convey the full range of our emotions and observations. We cannot thank you enough for being with us every step of the way, planning the trip with us, looking out for us, checking in on us, giving us sage advice, it would have been a very different experience without having you on board and we are grateful for it. It was also a delight to finally meet you, even though we were only able to spend a short while together. We would not hesitate to recommend you to our friends and colleagues.

The sightseeing-trip you arranged for me was really well organized (small hitches expected and accepted). It was a very good idea of yours to change the car to an Innova as it made traveling very comfortable. I did appreciate that you enquired continually how things were going.

The experience you have given us over the past three weeks is something I shall never forget. It is impossible to say one aspect of India was better than another as everything was of interest and of value. It would not have been the same without the quality you brought to leading and guiding our group. Your insight, wisdom, kindness, and constant good humour made a wonderful tour really exceptional.

Thank you so much for providing us with an amazing and unforgettable experience of India and its social, religious and political life that few other tourists are likely to have had.

Abraham Lincoln first coined the word `cool’. I think you fit the bill. Thanks for shepherding us during the past few days. India will leave me with memories I will not forget.

We have known the Indians in America, now we know their homeland. Your plans for us were very imaginative and carried out with almost no problems. We will always remember this trip and how you were able to put it together. Thanks so much.

Dear Hector, You and India are inextricably intertwined in my mind. The warmth, complexity, kindness, intelligence I associate with India is in you.

You have led us on a wonderful journey and you were a perfect guide for our group. You were helpful, good humored and serene. India is a vastly complex country and I know you have many insights which would stir our thinking about it. It has been an unforgettable experience. We will be happy to recommend your excellent services to our friends.

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip – all of its aspects, the sublime and the challenging. You provided a great experience for all of us, showing us parts of India tourists visit and the backroads and back alleys.

This is just a short note to thank you for your help in arranging the local air travel, the pick up at the airports, and the tour for us in the Golden Triangle. The accomodations were quite good as was the driver and the local guides. We liked the Hotel Shanti Home in Delhi, the Mandawa Castle Hotel in accomodations in Mandawa, the Le Meredien in Jaipur, and the Mansingh Hotel in Agra. However, we found that the hotel staff not as friendly at the Mansingh Hotel.

Hector, Naima and I are enjoying our tour so far! Our guides in Goa and Jaipur have been great. We all *REALLY* liked the Sonesta Inn, and Naima was very happy to ride an ELEPHANT and a CAMEL and a HORSE today.
