Back in cold, wet England after a very good holiday - you can easily understand where I would prefer to be today!

Thanks for your organisation - it was absolutely excellent. If you ever need a recommendation, I'd be happy to oblige.

The organisation was absolutely first class - everything worked exactly as scheduled. It always impresses me how India works when the initial impression is of absolute chaos.

Vanilla County was the highlight and Baby Mathew Vallikappan was a very good host - this is probably the best place that we have stayed in India.

Emerald Isle had a very good team running it and was in an excellent setting. The only snag was the loudspeaker music at 0445 from the nearby temple!

Anyway, the last is only a minor niggle in an overall excellent experience.

Thanks once again,
Ian Henderson

Dear Faith

Now that I'm back at work (sadly!) and my feet really have hit the ground, I just wanted to thank you properly for all your help with planning our Kerala trip. It was absolutely excellent... everything worked out perfectly, there was no hassle, and we had a wonderfully relaxed time. I only wish it could have been longer than two weeks. Thanks also for your suggestions of hotels - I can certainly reinforce your other clients' views that Vanilla County is a superb place.

I do hope you have a good year... I probably need to do something about planning mine!

Best wishes,
Nicky

Dear Faith,

Just a quick note to let you know that we arrived safely back home in the US and that I will be shortly preparing you a dossier on our trip and will be attaching that to an e-mail to you at that time.

The trip as a whole was a smashing success!!! We enjoyed most every minute and while in Mysore, sitting on the roof top enjoying a late drink and the evening stars and lights, Ellie said she would like to just stay and not return home. That means it really was a success. I love India ---- it is inborn in me. But Ellie is a late comer to those delights and to have her totally immersed in the ambiance so much so that she could have just stayed without problem is a good indication..

Take care, give our best to everyone and I will be in contact shortly.
Steve

It was a wonderful trip. Barbara and I both want to return for another (and many more) trip with you. My daughter, Tracy, will be contacting you about a possible trip in Jan 2005. She is going to organize a trip for 6 to 8 other individuals from Washington DC. Their emphasis will be on staying at Ashrams, yoga, alternative medicine etc. They also want to do a lot of shopping in Pondicherry.

Best wishes,

Dear Faith,

It's hard to believe that our trip to India is over. It was fabulous, interesting, mysterious- so many new sights to take in (We'll be looking at 300+ images this afternoon! )

We can't thank you and your company enough for the care you showed to us in the arrangements of our trip to Kerala and the flights you booked. Having Balu as our driver, advisor, arranger, interpreter, friend, etc. really made our journey so beautiful. Riding in the Qualis was also a gift that we appreciated. Mr. Nathan and the gentleman who met us at Cochin were both very helpful, as well, especially with locating my luggage!

I've passed on your name and the name of your company to others who expressed an interest in traveling in the south of India. Rob and I were especially taken with the beauty of the countryside and the villages of India.

Until the next time! Fond wishes,
Marsha & Rob Garfinkel.
