What our guests say about our India tours
Please note that Pre covid we were known as 'Kiwi N Tiger -Luxury Tours of India', Now post covid we have rebranded ourselves as India Tours NZ to simplify our approach to our customers.
We have just completed a 14 day Northern India tour with KiwinTiger. We wanted to enjoy our trip without worrying about how to get there and what to do. Vishal ensured we had a seamless trip. Our driver Rakesh Sharma navigated the roads incredibly well and ensured we could sit back and relax while he got us comfortably to our destination. We chose the 5 star option and each accommodation choice was unique and fabulous. They included a Royal Hunting Lodge in Jaipur and New Years Eve with a Bollylicious gala event at a Royal Palace in Jodhpur. The food was great. We learnt so much about the history and culture. Highly recommend Vishal and KiwinTiger. We are already planning our Southern India trip in 2021 and will definitely be using KiwinTiger.

After years of DIY travel we thought it was time to use a tour guide and driver to visit Rajasthan, particularly as one of us now has some difficulty negotiating steep stairs and uneven surfaces. We absolutely loved our 3.5 weeks with Vishal and Surendra of KiwinTiger. Considerate and kind, nothing was ever a problem, any requests were instantly met with a "can do." Surendra was just so capable behind the wheel and took no unnecessary risks which was comforting and Vishal always found the answer to our questions and was a mine of information about life in the rural villages, in the cities and towns and along the roadsides. Would return to India with KiwinTiger in a heartbeat.

India best holidayMy husband and I had the best holiday of our life time. We were looked after professionally every day and the quality of guides and drivers was excellent. Kiwintiger gives you a personal, caring, knowledgeable experience that we believe is the absolutely best in the market. Vishal organised outstanding guides and drivers who personalised our trip. We felt privileged to enjoy such care and attention .We enjoyed it so much we are organising another trip.

India is a fantastic place to visit
Wow, we travelled to India for three weeks in Oct, Nov 2019 with Kiwi n tiger and had an awesome, adventurous holiday. We found their itinerary was well organised with alot of variety. Fantastic food, great vehicle and driver. Beautiful heritage hotels were like an oasis to come back to after a day of sightseeing. Best of all was the way Vishal made the trip feel like you were seeing the real india, not just the tourist stuff. His passion, professionalism and friendly nature made the holiday the trip of a lifetime. My husband was quite nervous of travelling to India before we went, but absolutely loved the holiday. We both thoroughly recommend Kiwi n tiger.

We wanted a true India experience and Vishal didn't disappoint us. We had a quick fire trip through Delhi, Agra, Jaipur and Udaipur late August, early September 2018. Vishal and his team gave us experiences we would have never had travelling on our own. From street food, to amazing accommodation to personalized guided tours of temples, forts and palaces. I would truly recommend Kiwi n Tiger if you are looking at travelling to India. Many thanks Vishal for a trip we will never forget. Grant Clifford, Blenheim, New Zealand

My three friends and i toured Rajasthan for 14 days starting in Delhi travelling to Jodhpur then returning by air to Delhi for our long flight home to NZ.We were treated like Royalty the whole time we were there.We saw the stunning Palaces down to the real people out in the country. Everyone had a smile and a wave.This was one of the best trips i have experienced.If you are thinking of a trip to India don’t forget KiwinTiger. Vishal and his team were wonderful.

- My family and I travelled with Kiwi n Tiger in India from 23rd Sept - 6th October 2017, we covered Delhi/Varanasi/Agra/Jaipur/Pushkar/Jodphur/Narlai and Udaipur. We had always wanted to go to India so we had looked at it many times and the different ways it could be done, and as fairly experienced and independent travellers we decided India was one of those countries that could be extremely stressful to travel in, especially with a 10 and 13 year old. We also felt that the 14 days we had were going to be so precious we didn’t want to be stressed - we just wanted to absorb! We looked into lots of different tour options but the elements that were important to us were local knowledge, flexibility (as we can be quite particular!) and feeling like we could put our trust in our tour group. Kiwi’s hate to have the wool pulled over their eyes and it is particularly awkward when you don’t wholly trust the person looking after you. We came across Kiwi n Tiger and were apprehensive at first because they didn’t have a history, however all our correspondence with Vishal Kulria was very professional and detailed and the KnT website was awesome. But being able to meet with Vishal in Christchurch to discuss our trip was invaluable, we became infected with his passion and enthusiasm for his beloved India. We signed up immediately and it was a great decision. Both Vishal and his partner Shiv we very attentive to our requirements and very helpful with suggestions to make the most our our long awaited trip. Once in India we were very well taken care off, our driver was excellent, Vishal helped us with bartering when shopping (many local guides take commission), we never had to think about where we were going to eat we just had to decide what we felt like, street food - restaurant - local specialties, Vishal had heaps of suggestions. Also the hotel suggestions made by KnT were great and we experienced some exceptional resort stays, Rawla Narlai in particular. We had to remain flexible because of the children and this was not a problem for KnT if plans had to change. We wholeheartedly recommend Kiwi n Tiger for any kind of trip to India, our kids really enjoyed themselves and were treated as VIP’s as were my husband and I. India is an amazing country to travel, the culture the history (a large amount of which is crammed into Vishals head) the chaos and colour, it is all I expected and more! Thanks Vishal, Shiv, Joni and everyone else who made our Kiwi n Tiger trip so memorable.Kylie & Family, Rangiora October 2017
