Dear Mr. Bhatt,
Yesterday we arrived Berlin Airport just in time. The flights from Goa to Mumbai resp. Mumbai to Berlin were without problems. Now we begin to digest our experience incredible India and to put the question how we could live without this experience.

We are deeply greatful for planning and managing our visit in such a competent, diligent and sensitive mannor. To know that all arrangements and details were so reliably managed was a comfortable feeling and the program included so many highlights so that we head full confidence to all your suggestions. Can we ask you again when we come to India once more?

Sincerely
K. and K. Pollmann

You have been indeed very helpful in the trip we did, with my wife and my daughter in South India, during the first week of January '07. Your travel company deserves to be recommended for its standards, such as the staff in general, but mainly as its driver, Mr. Rajandran, very well educated, very careful and very efficient.

I hope to be able to use again soon your services in the coming year.

Congratulations. Thanks.
Yours,

Dear Ms Patel

My wife Gisèle and I wish to thank you and the Goway Organization very much for our wonderful trip to India(Oct. 21 to Nov. 16, 2006) which you arranged with Travel Corporation India Ltd. We felt in very good hands when dealing with representatives of TCI and felt;that they treated us very well throughout the trip, perhaps sometimes beyond the call of duty!!

Indeed, I would like to thank them personally via e-mail if you would be so kind as to provide me with their e-mail address.

Thanking you very much, we remain,
Yours very truly,

Dear Jay,

Let me first say a big "thank you " to you and TCI for the most lovely holiday in Kashmir. Kashmir, I feel is one of the most beautiful place and that one should  travel there one in their life time to experience heaven before really getting there.

Your tour agents "Johnsens" are the best. The tour guide Ashiq Ahmed Najar is very good . He saw that we went to all the places that had to be seen and recommended places to shop where they had fair prices. He went out of his way to make us comfortable . He was also a great help to my mum who kept getting frozen fingers. He is someone who has immpecable manners andis a big "Must " for every visitor to Kashmir. He sure is an Asset to his company.

The driver, another Ashiq was fantastic, the way he drove , looks like he has missed his "calling", he should be part of Formula A1. Very careful and had his wits while driving inspite of keeping his "fast".

Bravo!!! to both the "Ashiq's " for making our holiday wonderful. I have come back with the thirst to visit again.

Thank you! once again.

Regards

Dear Sirs,

I would like to express my satisfaction for you arrangements concerning my trip in Tamil Nadu a few weeks ago. The hotels were ok, the car very nice and the guides well informed and friendly. I’ve seen a wonderful place and experienced a different and friendly, interesting world. I would like to thank especially my driver for his friendliness, overall care and concern for my safety and interests and would like to recommend him to you for other special individual trips – he’s just perfect!

See you again in India,

Kris:

My daughter just returned this morning. After the flights New Delhi-Newark-Dulles she was really tired.
On the way from the airport home she remarked that TCI was the best- everything worked like a charm. Each service was excellent. The hotels were perfect for them, the sights overwhelming and marvelous. They learned a lot and Khajuraho really interesting. As she was telling me that, she shifted to Varanasi which was even better and more interesting. All in all, it was a huge success.
The drivers were very good, and she mentioned Sanjay in Agra and Devinder in Delhi ( who has friends from a previous trip with you) as being particularly wonderful.
So, Kris from this immediate response you and TCI implemented a 100% trip of a lifetime.
Thanks to everyone, and if I hear more details I feel good to pass on, I will.

Kind regards,

RE: WONDERS OF EUROPE COSMOS TOUR

I am glad to inform you that yesterday my father had successfully completed his above mentioned tour and returned back safely to Amsterdam. As per my short telephonic discussion with him, he told that the tour was well organized and he faced no problem at any place.

Even his Thalys train journey from Paris to Hague went on well. The only problem he had was that of lunch & dinner which I guess, because he being a vegetarian and could not find Indian style food at any place.

I sincerely thank both of you and your other team members for organizing well and making this trip enjoyable.

As you are aware we had recently organized a foreign travel trip to our dealers to Europe from 6th July to 13th July through you.

At the outset, we would like to thank you very much for the excellent arrangements that have been done during the trip. The trip was very well organized.

We would also like to place on record the excellent service provided by the tour leader Mr. J. Shankar, who had accompanied us during the travel. His overwhelming hospitality has really kept all of us in comfort. The entire group felt very happy about his service and attitude towards our needs. Our best compliments to him.

Overall, it has been a wonderful trip an I am sure all of us who traveled in this trip would carry this experience in our memories.

On behalf of TTG and I, we offer our deepest condolences and heartfelt prayers for the victims, their families, relatives and friends.
We will continue to pray for good recovery and healing for the hundreds who are injured.
If TTG and I can assist in anyway, please feel free to contact me or any of my colleagues,

Pallan,

I have just returned to New York from my "round the world" trip, and wanted to write you a brief note to let you know that while in Bombay I dropped into your Nariman Point office and met with Ankita Rijsinghani, and Aimee Dewan. They were very knowledgeable, helpful, and super efficient. I had my reservations (seat assignments and all), and tickets all taken care of within a few minutes. It was a pleasure dealing with them, and I will be getting all my international travel tickets from them in the future. Thanks for putting me in touch with your Bombay office.

Hello Aloo,

Thank you for an outstanding job organising the very first wedding TCI has done - at least in Goa.

It turned out to be one of the most enjoyable weddings our friends have attended. Everything went smoothly.

Madhavi went above and beyond the call of duty looking after my guests that were touring Delhi etc. I personally know she worked hard and late on a Saturday when you all were closed to ensure we were well looked after.

We were fortunate to have you and your team.

Thank you

Dear Jeh,

Rustom, Jehangir and I went for a holiday to Russia (Moscow and St. Petersburg) for about 12 days, at the end of May. Meher Framjee and Rohinton Shroff from TCI did all our hotel and train bookings.

I just wanted to tell you, that both of them were extremely cooperative, helpful and courteous and took a lot of trouble adjusting everything to suit our needs. They usually went out of their way and we really appreciated it.

All the hotel bookings, train tickets etc. were very well organized in Russia, and we had no problems whatsoever. I would like to record my appreciation and thanks to both Meher and Rohinton. I will definitely be troubling them again soon.

See you soon,
Jehana

We are pleased to inform you that our group tour to Singapore for the conference organised through you was highly appreciated by one and all.

The services of the concerned TCI executives at Chennai, especially Mr. Shanker is laudable and he made us fell one among us. The guides and your agents at Singapore also extended full support and co-operation in making our stay comfortable and the arrangements were excellent.

In short, the trip was memorable for each one of us, which was made possible by the best efforts of TCI.

Dear Sir,

         I am so delighted to write this report on our pilgrimage conducted by TCI Ekm. Ten days of pilgrimage to the Holy Land, by the grace of God, was brilliantly successful and grace pouring experience. May I extend my heart felt congratulations to TCI group. Also I am here to thank you in a special way for the chance given to me to follow the group as the spiritual guide.
           The whole group of 45 was happy and contented. Their satisfaction was to the full and brim. The arrangement and planning done by your company was extremely great. I can collect the feelings of the group in the following lines:

• The food and accommodation : Need to say-par-excellence.
• The whole group felt that the amount given to TCI is less compared to the expenses spent for the group in many ways.
• TCI can be proud at successful venture, though the gain to the company may be very small perhaps nill.
• Mr. Abraham : The representative of TCI to the pilgrim group was an efficient guide. He did his best to keep the group happy, healthy and safe. Any one can not be a leader, especially in situation like this. But Mr. Abraham proved his person, talents and leadership.
• TCI can surely expect the co operation of these group members in future for the same purpose they have received so much from the pilgrimage and from your company.

Prayers and wishes for success in all your undertakings.

Yours Faithfully

Dear Anil,
We should have done this as soon as we returned from India on March 4 , but things have been so hectic here in Dhaka that it is only now that I have a bit of time to send you this e-mail, on the eve of my departure for Canada... Louise is already back in Ottawa, but I'm sure she joins me in sending this note of thanks.

We had a wonderful trip in India. Except for the hotel in Delhi, which was not particularly good, but acceptable nevertheless, all was fine, absolutely well organized. The guides were all great and we enjoyed Delhi, Jaipur, Agra and Darjeeling thoroughly. We also had an excellent driver for the Golden Triangle. We had a couple of drivers in Darjeeling, and both were excellent.

Many, many thanks for your professionalism and for organizing this memorable trip for us.

With kindest regards.

My wife and I recently completed a Maupintour of India in which TCI handled the arrangements within India. From the moment we were met at the Mumbai airport till our departure in New Delhi we were taken care of in such a pleasant responsible and professional manner. The staff walked the extra mile even helping me exchange my currency at 2 AM on the morning the day of our departure.

Driving in India takes experience and patience and our drivers always made us feel secure. I am not one to shower praise but the TCI group is deserving of it. I am already planning to return to India on a tour that will once again use TCI.

Sincerely,

Dear Tamanna,

Thanks for your mail. My Europe tour was indeed a memorable one.The services provided by  TCI  were excellent in India right from the querry to client handling & Then in Europe, Inspite of schedule of COSMOS  being hectic,we never felt the rigours of journey for thousands of kms across the continent in such a bleak winter.Our tour director,Ms Karoline & the coach driver Mr Gaetano made our long trip an experience of a life time. Hotel accommodation was good(except in Venice),organised dinners were excellent but some of the optional excursions/visits to places of interest should have been included in the main itenerary.Above all a sincere Salute to TCI(& ofcourse you) for arranging such a lovely trip for me which I shall cherish all my life.Thanking you once again.

Subir Sen.

Dear Sheherazad:

You got the jump on me!

I wanted to thank you for all your efforts and sustained energy during the JDC India mission.The logistics worked perfectly despite some setbacks - some known and many others, I am sure, that you did not mention.

Your calm and cool execution was much appreciated by our participants and their comments reflected that sentiment. Your presence and warm demeanor were a plus to me personally and professionally.

Thanks again. Looking forward to our paths crossing again.

Dear Raj,

First of all, I'm really sorry because it took me so many months to write you explaining our experiences in the trip, but I've had a very busy time (too much work, some other holidays, some health problems,...). So, I couldn't find a moment to write to you. You know, when I remembered it, I was out of the office.

Now I've found a moment to thank & congratulate you for the great organisation of our trip. For us, it was one of our best holidays, mainly because we liked a lot all what we saw, and also because the way of doing it was easy and really pleasant for us.

The whole organization was perfect, the driver was great, and the guide was also really nice and experienced one. So we had a nice trip and we enjoyed a lot with them, apart from learning a lot about hinduism and Indian cultutre.

We were also really satisfied when you could change our flight to Bombay, to leave one day earlier. Besides, you arranged a hotel there without any additional cost for us. For all that, we really appreciate your efforts.

That means you can be sure we wil recommend your agency to any person travelling to India, because our experience was fantastic.

Again, I am sorry for the delay on this mail, and thank you for everything.
Best Regards,

Marga Busqui

Dear Sharad,
Congratulations!
The South India Tour was a real success. The high standard of quality in TCI services was remarkable in this tour. The participants of the seminar were thankful; the teacher, our customer Mr Corneau was happy and could enjoy without worry. So I am really satisfied. One thing I would appreciate is more precise and accurate information during the preparation of the tour. I am confident that the May 06 North India Tour will be organized by Mrs Shubi with the same professionalism and will be the beginning of a long collaboration between our organizations.

We are back from India and we had a great time.

We where always well-looked-after. Your drivers and guides where there, when needed without giving us the feeling of being "watched".

Dear Mr. Nayanar,

This letter is in appreciation of the travel coordination that was handled seamlessly by Suganya who is the TCI implant here. In spite of the heavy workload, erratic timings and tremendous pressure on her, she has handled all this without one word of complain. Her pleasing attitude is something a lot of us could learn from! I would also like to thank Kousalya and team in TCI without whose support she may not have been able to cope single handedly.

Thanking you.

Hi Parul,

We're back from our much looked-forward-to trip. It was an excellent experience and everything went off very smoothly. I only wish we had opted for at least another day at Singapore. 2 days were not enough to do all. Maybe if & when I'm a millionaire, I'll go back & stay 5 days!!

But I'm glad we didn't opt for the balcony room on the liner. I had a look at one & decided it was not worth
the money. But a window might have been a good idea, especially when it was raining.

Thanks a lot for all the impeccable planning & everything else u did for us. It made the trip really hassle-free. Hopefully u'll do others for us in the future.

All the best
Take care,

Dear Tamanna,

Thank you for making an excellent and fascinating tour plan to Scandinavian countries for me during the period 30th June to 11th July 2005.

Frankly speaking, it was really a pleasant and memorable experience for me. I must appreciate the great pains undertaken by you in selecting the hotels at various places which were centrally located and close to the, City centres mostly within the limits of walking distance. Not only the stay at the hotels was quite comfortable, but also the breakfast served by them did have lots of choices which were delicious and adequate.

All sightseeing tours and cruises were so well planned and nicely spaced that i cherised evry moment of the same. I would like to mention in particular that the dinner cruise at Oslo was the most enjoyable experience.

Thank you once again and look forward to have more such memorable experiences in future.

Yours Sincerely.

Greetings Kamakshi!!!
After a very satisfying holiday in Gangtok, I came back last Thursday as planned. I would like to place on record my sincere appreciation of the efforts that had gone into arranging the logistics for this tour.

All the arrangements including the car/van pick up and hotel accommodations, were taken care of professionally. I would like to make a special mention of the hotel we stayed in Gangtok, The Royal Plaza. I will not hesitate to recommend that to my friends as i was pleasantly surprised at the personalized attention we received from them. I'm sure your many e mails to them, asking to take good care of us would have done the trick.... :-)
Thank You once again it was a pleasure working with you!

This to acknowledge your valuable contribution with respect to all arrangements that you and your team has made to make our just concluded Head of Departments of Idea Cellular offices from All India conference that we have had at Kuala Lumpur from 6th Aug. till the 9th August.

Not denying the fact that it was a challenging assignment of coordinating the travel and the entire activities of 110 HODs' as the time given to you and your team was less than a week which was very short, to organize an event of such magnitude, that too in a foreign country.

You and your team did a commendable job to make it flawless and let me take this opportunity to congratulate you and your team for your self belief and valuable contribution in making this event a grand success.

Keep up the good work !!!

Looking forward for a continued business association.

"I should have written to you a long time ago, but after my return to New York, I got involved in the usual rush and only now I have got my breath back to write you in detail. I would like to thank you on behalf of our whole group and myself for the wonderful arrangements that TCI made for us during our visit to India from March 3rd to 15th.

Everywhere we went your representatives were always there, waiting with a placard and we immediately felt welcome. Even in the remotest part of our trip in Kerala, there was always someone to receive us. The accommodations you had suggested and booked for us were excellent, as were the guides who took us around. Mr. Pallan Katgara and Ms. Soonoo Arya were just terrific in accommodating all our requests and coping with all the changes we made in our itinerary. We were no easy group to deal with!!

With Ambassador's wives from so many countries like UK, Portugal, Mexico, Haiti, Singapore and Oman, they had their work cut out from the beginning. But they coped so well that I can only express gratitude and admiration for their excellent work. I would especially like to acknowledge the assistance we got from Mr. Himanshu Mishra and Mr. Sudhir Joshi during our stay in Delhi. They took every care to see that we were well looked after and accommodated each of our requests. This made it easier for us, having one person to communicate with.

My friends' arrivals and departures were also well organised and none of them had any complaints. We were such a disparate group and yet all our requirements were fulfilled. All of us have talked a great deal about the trip and have referred your company's name to several people who are thinking of travelling to India in the near future.

So you may be dealing with a lot of people in New York connected with the United Nations very soon! Once again, many thanks for everything."

Once I arrived at your Mumbai office, It was very nice of you to greet me with a wonderful smile, especially during lunch hour.  Within short time, your expertise was at work and you had planned a perfect vacation to South India.  Your staff at Trivandrum & Cochin were excellent. All credit goes to you for planning a great vacation for us and we will
always recommend your agency in future.  Thank you very much again."

"I, had taken your tour to Far East and I am delightfully surprised at the profeesional way your office staff have given us the service, which I think is on par with lots of foreign countries that I have visited.

I must congratulate you on the selection for such excellent staff. Mr.Swapnil who has given excellent pre tour service and then especially Mr. Rajendra & Mr. Rajesh who were present always to attend to anything we wanted day and night. Infact I once commented to them that they were not slaves and tried to coax them to have dinner but they were always last to have lunch/dinner after we all finished. They were there first to make wake up calls (Even Before the Hotel staff did) and before the first person came down for breakfast they were there. Exceptional non tiring superhumans and I am sure you can call all 3 of them "jewels in your crown " for the courteous and helpful way they have been treating the customers which will go a long way to build your esteem in terms of customer satisfaction and last but not the least the "crown" himself . Mr. Bhaskar was so calm and so dignified. I called himso many times and he was always all ears, ever helpful.

I also sincerely hope that in future always I will get the same excellent service and I promise you that I will personally always travel with TCI and also recommend you to everybody including my patients, friends and relatives."

"Returned day before yesterday from Australia. The vacation was fabulous, even better than the Eurail trip I had done in 2000 (again through TCI). Everything worked like clock-work and your team co-ordinated the trip so very well.

Special mention should be made of Cecil, the Manager of Plaza Palms Resort in Cairns. His hospitality was so warm and the touch was personal. We had a great stay.

The option of city packages combined with my own itinerary is the best travel option I have had in all my vacations so far.

Thanks again for all the help and do let me know of any special deals which you think might be of interest to me"

"I am extremely pleased to inform you that my wife and I had a wonderful time, thanks to the extremely well organised and attractive components of the package. Right from the time I contacted your staff, Ms. Munira, upto my arrival back in India, it was a smooth run throughout with no hitches.

Unlike other packages that I've heard of, this one was transparent and with no hidden costs. All that was promised in the itinerary were delivered and the schedule was such that there was enough spare time for us too. The trip went on with clockwork precision with each and every thing being very well organised. The hotels were of high standards and on the whole, the tour was extremely cost effective.

I take this opportunity to congratulate you on making this possible and to keep up your high standards of service".

"I wish to place on record Ministry of Tourism's deep appreciation for the excellent work done by M/s. Travel Corporation (India) Pvt. Ltd. (TCI) in managing the international guests who had visited India during the India International Travel Mart (IITM) 2002 and the Media Meet organized during September 2002.

This task was given to TCI at an extremely short notice. However, the work was executed by them with professionalism and extreme satisfaction to the guests who visited India. The guests have greatly appreciated the courtesy and the hospitality which they had received. Most of them have promised to come back to India on account of the warmth and the affection with which they were looked after.

Kindly convey my good wishes and thanks to all the Members of the Team of TCI."

"We are back in Germany and suffer under the present cold temperatures. However life goes on and our four weeks trip to India will remain in our minds as an extraordinary journey in a land of contrasts.

We have seen beautiful regions, met friendly people at all places, learnt a lot about Indian history and religion, and appreciated the Indian food especially the veg. meals.

You have worked out an itinerary for us which was "second to none". All TCI offices did their jobs accordingly and we always had the feeling to be ingood hands. We stayed in good hotels and enjoyed the facilities and services they offered. We experienced the road traffic which is quite different to tours. We learnt to be patient when Indian Airlines delayed or cancelled the flights
on which we had a booking.

At all places TCI had arranged for local German or English speaking guides. They all did their job to our satisfaction however we like to nominate two of them for their profound knowledge of Indian religion - Hinduism and Jainism - which they have been able to explain to us so we could understand.
A special thanks again to:
1) Mr Diavisay Sinah Ihala from Udaipur and 2) Mr.( name forgotten) from
Madurai.

We once again thank you for having arranged this memorable trip for us.
Definitely it will not be the last one."

"I am writing this letter with a heart full of joy and gratitude. For the highest degree of administrative capabilities, hospitality and utmost care showered on Kenstar guests during the 4 day tour of Singapore and Star Cruise Virgo. The warmth and closeness experienced by each Kenstar guest is beyond comprehension. A feeling of a foreign land never creeped in.

The on ground stupendous efforts and care put in by Mr. Sanjeev Sharma is par excellence. His never ending zeal, dedication and energy will always inspire us.

Our special thanks to Mr. Sameer Surve and other members of TCI Team for extending their expertise and making our visit a sweet memory to cherish for.

"Having returned from the weeklong stay at Aurangabad, we have come back with a lot of pleasant memories about the first ever Ellora-Aurangabad Festival.

While its true that the festivity was strenuous and kept us all working long hours, we would never have managed all the hard work with a smile had it not been for your whole hearted support and cheerful spirit! Despite all the obstacles from logistics to individuals and their sensitivities, you overcame all of them with a smile on your face and kept us going even stronger.

We are sure hat the Festival Committee must have lauded the efforts of your organisation and yourself in an official manner, but please accept our heartfelt appreciation of your personal effort to ensure that the entire function was flawless.

We certainly look forward to interacting with you on future occasions as well. Until then, keep smiling and do remember to stay in touch !"

"We have been availing your services for our travel purposes for quite long time and we have been getting very satisfactory services from your people especially from Mr. Kamal Baha. Whenever we think of any travel arrangements, we immediately think of Mr. Kamal and there he is to help us with a smiling face, which speaks of his quality and attitude. To be more precise, during last few occasion we had requested him to confirm few tickets for our Engineer's who have come from Korea for installation of our machineries in connection with our expansion purposes. Though the tickets were not purchased from TCI and more so over the flights were going full, Mr. Kamal came forward to help us and confirmed seats for our Engineers. Hence we thought that Mr. Kamal deserves all praises from us and would like to share our feelings with you, as you being the head of TCI in Chennai.

We take this opportunity to thank you once again and expect similar degree of service from you forever".

"First of all, let me apologise for not getting in touch with you after my trip, since I was out for too many days and secondly it was year ending. Infact I and Dipti had decided to write a mail to you especially marking the same to the head of TCI and informing them that you all really have expertise in your field and are simply the best.

I would like to say that the trip you had arranged was kind of a dream come true......EXCELLENT is one word explanation for the trip.....the arrangements were really great......

Concord Hotel in Malaysia ( can u believe that my room had a swimming pool and twin tower view)...was really nice....it was 5 minutes walking from twin tower. When we reached Singapore your affiliate person was waiting for us. It was a great gesture to receive a welcome with your card and box of chocolates.

Thank you once again, dear right from talking to me when I was just a walk-in customer at your office ....to calling me at Johdpur, believing my words and handing everything to my friend and later on sending your person to my place in Mumbai to collect money......it was really nice of you to cooperate with all this, giving me value for money package.

Do keep in touch in the near future for any good packages you are going to offer....as I would be interested in going and exploring the world through you...."

Warm regards

"Many thanks for your mail. Very much appreciated indeed. My parents has got their Swiss visas from Swiss Embassy London with Indian passports. And they have decided to travel on their own as the departure dates are not within the right period otherwise we are more than happy with the level of service provided by you. I myself will be booking the similar tour within 2 months time and then will prefer travelling through Cosmos as it will be planned in time. In the mean time would appreciate all the new offers on the tours to various destination within and outside Europe.

I am at present working for dept. of trade and industry UK. Do let me know if I could be of any help".

"My wife and I visited India three times in the last year.

In our first visit (2002,April) we took your tour from Delhi to Agra (Taj Mahal). We invited the tour through internet and there we "met" Mr. Malayanil.

When we arrived in Delhi and took your tour to Agra, we met Mr. Ragesh who was very-very kind, and he was the first person from TCI that we met "face to face".

After we met Mr. Ragesh we asked him to make some arrangements for our daughter and us, and then we came to your office in Delhi, where we met "our friend from the internet ", Mr. Malayanil, who took care about all our requests and did everything in a very-very professional way kindly, quickly and to our full satisfaction.

In our second visit to India (2002, sep.) we bought the tickets (Jet airways) in Israel, but Mr. Malayanil took care of all the hotels in our staying in India. We felt free to call him in every problem we had and from the moment he heard the problem we knew that we don't have to worry anymore.

In our third visit (2003, April) we decided to leave everything to Mr. Malayanil treatment. He took care of our flight tickets inside India, and of our train tickets and hotels during our stay in India.

We chose only one hotel (Sea Face Hotel in Kovalam), which was a complete disappointment, and yet, we felt free to call Mr. Malayanil, who called the hotel manager and arranged that we would get our money back and be transferred to another when we apologized him for bothering him with our problems in a hotel that we chose Mr. Malayanil said:

"You are in my country, and every problem you have is my problem".

If we had an Israeli agent, he could not give us such a service. We felt that we could call Mr. Malayanil in every problem, question or request - day and night, and he would always (but always) be kind, helpful and professional.

We recommend everyone to work with T.C.I. and told everyone that we could not enjoy our visits to India without the care of Mr. Malayanil.

For us:
India = T.C.I. and T.C.I. = Malayanil so the conclusion is:
India = Malayanil.

We are afraid that Mr.Malayanil will be promoted and therefore will stop working with us, so I want you to promise us that no matter what will his job in T.C.I. be he will keep on working with us otherwise.."

Thank you very much,
Jacob & Roni golani

Dear Karthik,

"It was indeed a pleasure having you along with us in Bangkok.

Your deft handling of the entire proceedings, the group and extremely accommodating nature made us all feel a part of a "family". I am sure that the frequent changes demanded by us at Nicholas would have caused you great inconvenience and sleepless nights, in spite of the same you never said "No" to any of our demands.

Above all your humble nature and ever smiling face really helped us in putting together a successful trip.

I thank you very much again and lookforward to flying with you again."

Andrew & Maria Allan

"We just wanted to let you know that we had the most amazing time in India. All of your suggestions were spot on and we loved the itinerary. The hotels were all excellent and we were very well taken care of.

We were also very impressed by the level of service and attention that we received. Our drivers,guides and greeters were all very knowledgeable and professional. We were in very capable hands at all times.
The combination of hotels and the houseboat was fantastic. We loved Kerala; the people, the history, the food, the culture, the weather, the wildlife and of course the scenery. Only the driving made us nervous (and this wasn't because of our driver, rather it is a function of driving in India). In looking back upon this trip we know that it was one of the best holidays we have ever taken. We look forward to the next time when we will be able to return -- this time to another part of the country.

Thank you so much for all of your effort and attention. We will not hesitate to reccommend TCI to others who may one day plan a trip to India. There is no question that the services provided by, and booked by TCI went a long way to making our trip so successful. We have many memories and great photos to remember this trip by".

Thanks again,

TCI team lives up to the promise.

Thank you so much for your support....just imagine how things happen, its great to have a friend like you.

Dear Mishraji,

"I am happy to inform you that my trip of Europe was really quite enjoyable. The arrangements done by you and COSMOS made our tour hassle-free. The time management of COSMOS was good. The tour-guide was co-operative. The bus provided to us for travelling was an AC luxury coach and we could cover on an average four hundred kilometers in five to six hours (including refreshment stops) without feeling much tired. The hotels provided were of good standard except a few, where our group had to face little problem due to failure of AC or small congested room (as in Paris). The over all experience was good and really memorable one."

The hotel at London (Royal National) was good enough and much convenient to get on the Cosmos bus. The hotels provided at all places were of good standard. I appreciate the cooperation extended by Mr. Samiur Rahman of TCI Patna.

We are amply satisfied with the services organised by TCI Patna. I recommend the services of TCI to any one who wishes to vist USA or Europe."

Dear Droovati,

"I would like to thank you in a very special way for making our 10 day holiday to Sri Lanka fantastic. Despite the fact that we did not get too long a time to really plan out our vacation, and when we finally did get the dates fixed, it seemed impossible to get everything organised, but in such a short span of time, you went out of the way and with confidence & assurance, planned out our holiday in such a way, that we did not loose out on any dates.

Let me also add that the hotels selected were just the type we were looking for and all the people were extremely kind & hospitable. It sure has made our honeymoon worth cherishing!!

Thank you so much Droovati and I would be really happy to recommend you to anyone would wish to set off on a enjoyable holiday.

All the very best to you and keep up the great work!"

Dear Malika/Shamnad,

"I would like to thank you for organizing our trip to India and Sri Lanka. We had a wonderful time. Everything was perfect and went very smoothly. The hotel in Goa was fantastic, really nice and the Coconut Lagoon was amazing. Alex enjoyed his massage there. The backwater boat trip was one of the highlights. The food we got on the boat was the best and the scenery was beautiful. Very relaxing.

Sri Lanka was fantastic. We loved it all, especially Kandy and the elephant orphanage. Our driver was brilliant, we got on really well with him and he really looked after us. We learnt to windsurf for 2 days during our stay in Bentota and our driver would come and watch us falling in the water all the time! It was great.
Thank you again, it was a very memorable trip."

Nimish Patel

"Recently I had an opportunity to have an association with your organization as I had some work in Switzerland and Germany, I planned to travel to Europe and got myself booked on a 10 day European tour with Cosmos through TCI .

The person co-coordinating at TCI was by the name of Shilpa. I must point out here that she had a lot of patience as I am a pretty tough customer, as I had to squeeze myself in the tour as there weren't plenty of options left for me due to the odd timings as there weren't any more trips and the once that were, were starting after a week only.

I very rarely praise someone or an organization but here I must praise both your staff and your organization for the pleasing experience I had. I was pretty pleased as I have now returned and have very pleasant memories about the tour as well as the manner in which she organized my trip.

I would like to take this opportunity to let you know that the trip was absolutely value for money. The tour conductor was pretty sweet her name was Emma. She was pretty well versed with the places we visited she never missed an opportunity to share her experiences and knowledge. All the places we were put up were pretty good except a few which I am sure its the same everywhere as your trip cost was pretty low.

I am sure the next time I travel I would definitely like to once again travel with TCI organized tours as u guys are absolute professionals."

Dear Pam,
We are home safely, if tired. Pam, it was wonderful trip and we want to thank you for your firm's superb organization skills which made the trip so wonderful. We were impressed and amazed!

Without exception, the arrangements you made with TCI in India went as planned. We were met and delivered exactly as scheduled. We appreciate that such reliable service is challenging in places such as India where traffic and priorities can make on-site alterations common. The guide services were excellent and flexible enough to accommodate our preferences. The Festival of Shiva was on in Varanasi while we were there so the guide arranged for us to see some of the celebrations and processions.

The hotels, especially the Taj Mahal Palace (Mumbai) and Fort Aguada Resort (Goa) were outstanding. All hotels were clean, hospitable, comfortable and all afforded that desirable "refuge" from the chaos of city streets. We had no serious difficulties with the food, in fact we loved it! If there is any "downside" to the customized touring we did it is the extraordinary amount of serious tipping required. However, we got value for our rupees.

We also are appreciative that Grass Cowan at Travel Image arranged for your participation in the planning.

Thank you
