I just wanted to let you know that my wife and I thought the Goway Classic India tour that we took at the end of October was fantastic. The TCI folks were prompt and efficient, the guides (mostly M.A.'s in history, art or ancient studies) were excellent and the hotels (esp. the Trident hotels in Agra, Jaipur and Udaipur were first-rate. Very, very nice
