Limra Hospitality will select the hotel(s) for the tour. Prior to the departure, Limra Hospitality will provide the Client with the hotel information, including the name, location, and telephone number of the hotel. In advance of the tour, the Client will inform Limra Hospitality whether he or she prefers a shared room or a single room.

Limra Hospitality is not an Air Ticketing Agency but a Tour Company and shall make Air Travel arrangements for within India and/or International Travel only upon request from the customer. We suggest that guests avoid traveling by public transport unless there is no air connection. The public transport system like the trains and busses are not hygienic and unorganized. Securing reservations in Trains is also a problem these days due to the population. Many times your reservation might be turned down if a VIP is traveling. The time table is also not strictly adhered to and you might just loose 1 day of your itinerary because of the train running late. Reservations can be secured 3 months in advance.
Hotels in India believe in self rating and this is why not all claims made on their websites are true. Hence we suggest that you go with our choice of hotels as by booking them directly you might be overcharged even after commitment.
Limra Hospitality, in its discretion, may substitute portions of the tour, including, but not limited to, sightseeing, hotels, and restaurants, prior to, and during, the tour. Limra Hospitality will fully explain such substitutions to the Client as such substitutions become known to Limra Hospitality.
