Karen and I returned home on Monday and wanted to send you and your team a "thank you" for the fantastic trip! Your country is beautiful and offers an abundance of culture, spirituality, history and adventure. From someone that has traveled to Europe, Asia and South America, it is by far the most fascinating country I have yet to visit. From the perspective of two westerners, it is so clear to us that we only started to scratch the surface of your country and have so much more to learn.

Regarding the trip logistics, the accomodations, transportation and guides were exceptionally prepared and well thought out by Compass. They exceeded our expectations. Everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful and mindful of our trip. Karen and I have travelled extensively on our own in various countries and were not accustomed to the attention, care and safety provided by your team. We are very independent travelers that usually throw on a back pack and figure the trip logistics out on our own. Having a trip planned for us was a very different (and pleasant!) experience. As a matter of fact, we are so used to taking care of ourselves that Karen and I felt badly that Naka had to escort us to the airport so late in the evening on our departure date (12:50 am flight). That is normally something we would just take care of on our own.

We will definitely recommend your company and services to our friends. Currently, I am trying to convince my husband to visit your country this year. I would love for him to experience the sites and culture as Karen and I did.

Please send a special thank you to Anand. He navigated us through the whole trip safely from start to finish and did an outstanding job. He made the trip a wonderful experience for Karen and I. I especially appreciated the Hindi lessons and will be continuing with the language lessons here at home. Should my husband make the trip this year to India, we will be requesting Anand's services again.

Shweta, I am sorry we were not able to stop in on the last day to see you. There were some more sights in Delhi that Karen and I wanted to see and we kept Anand quite busy well into the evening getting us to them. I suspect we will be back soon and at that time we will come by to give you a hug and say "thank you" in person. Should you ever request a formal letter of recommendation, please do not hesitate to contact us.
