‘I first met Kapil in India more than 25 years ago when I was working at the British High Commission in New Delhi. Kapil arranged all of my business and holiday travels in India throughout my five years there and we covered most of the country, staying in some of the most wonderful places and some that were way off the beaten track. Kapil always made sure that my every need was attended to wherever I was. After returning to UK I have travelled back to India and Sri Lanka at least once a year for holidays and Kapil has again always looked after all the arrangements. Many of my friends too have been privileged to have Kapil arrange their holidays and all have wondered how he has been able to provide much more than they had hoped for in their itinerary. He has, as always, planned my trips with perfect detail making each trip different with something to add excitement and wonder to the Expert Tours & Travels experience. I and my family appreciate Kapil’s skills organising our trips but above all he is a great friend and you always know you are in safe hands.’
