TransIndus Opiniones 

Transindus was a knowledgeable and reliable company which facilitated a very individual trip to India for us. As a specialist in early Indian history, I had a list of relatively unusual places to visit in a single trip, and this formed itinerary for a private tour. Since it was quite remote in parts, the company kept in touch and we felt supported throughout.

Two trips to India and now to Vietnam. Great communication- especially when I messed up and needed help.
I’ve had the same rep in England, Hari, and he saved the Vietnam trip when Qatar and I messed up
Thanks a million, Hari

Our recent two week Vietnam holiday was truly wonderful. The itinerary and planning was excellent. All excursions were just what we were looking for. The tour guides were polite and very accommodating. We will certainly choose TransIndus again. Many thanks.

We have used Transindus on multiple occasions and have been very happy with them.
They are very knowledgeable and thorough (explaining when certain ideas are not practical or possible).
I would happily recommend them to anybody looking to tour India.

It’s always a risk using a company you have never heard of, however based on their Trustpilot reviews, I organised a holiday in Tamil Nadu.

I can only describe their service as excellent +

From my first contact with them to get a quote for a solo holiday tour from Chennai to Madurai, I could not fault the service. Quick response to emails and showed a lot of initiative. For example, my plan was to fly from Heathrow, but on learning I lived in north England, Hari suggested I moved my dates by a couple of days and fly from Manchester on Christmas Day - saving me £1,000 ! Very impressive.

Travelling solo can be daunting, but at every single stop, the local guide was there to meet me, and all of them, without exception were knowledgeable and friendly.

I have to say a special thank you to Pramod, my driver for almost 2 weeks. We spent so much time together it dawned on me how important it is that you have the right driver. Not only was he an excellent driver, he spoke good English, was almost as knowledgeable as the local guides, was friendly and all round a really decent guy. Had I had someone I couldn’t communicate with or didn’t gel with, it could have ruined the holiday, but Pramod was absolutely spot on, and enhanced the trip.

Will definitely use Transindus for my next Asian holiday as I couldn’t fault anything about their meticulous organisation. Thank you so much for giving me a great trip and lots of happy memories.

Our call of the wild private tour was excellently organised, the ground staff in India could not have done a better job, they were superb. Of the various places we stayed King’s Lodge and Earth Lodge were exceptional, we were disappointed to have to leave the latter.

A holiday of three parts….
week one was a bespoke itinerary with excellent guide and driver visiting requested sights in Kolkata, Kalna and Murshidabad. Hari suggested staying at Bari Kothi and Rajbari Bawali, restored palaces where we were entertained and treated like royalty. Both supported their local village with employment and were a highlight of this part of our trip. Definitely take the village walk and sundowner river trip organised by the hotel staff at Rajari Bawali but suggested by Hari.
Week two was a cruise on the Brahmaputra River and week three was a land expedition up to Kohima in Nagaland. This was managed and organised by Pandaw Cruises but booked through TransIndus who made all the necessary arrangements to get to and from this. Small first class cruise ship with only 24 passengers, attentive staff and interesting shore stops and very good food. Trip up to Nagaland only taken by 16 passengers motivated to go by the inclusion of two day visits to the Hornbill tribal festival as well as five days exploring the local area. Excellent Naga guides passionate about showing off their beautiful landscape and culture as well as WW11 historical sites. We loved the fact that this area of India is seldom visited by foreigners so still unspoilt by mass tourism but be warned that visitors at the time of the festival require a special entry permit to the area and accommodation is limited. Pandaw booked the best available but it was very basic - more like a b&b - and unheated. Fortunately TransIndus warned us about this so we knew what to expect and had taken warm clothes for the chilly evenings and nights.
All in all a deserved 5 stars to TransIndus and to Hari for his help organising and keeping us informed about obtaining permits enroute to Nagaland.

We have traveled with Transindus for over 20 years. Hari is a star. He is very easy to deal with, responds promptly, does not argue and offers advice only when requested. Better still, he is very helpful when something goes wrong, even if it is not part of his itinerary.

This year we had our 7th trip with Transindus but our first group tour to Nepal and Bhutan. As usual the service was exceptional ... I am not sure the Transindus team ever sleep they answer queries so promptly. The trip was fascinating with an extremely knowledgeable guide who looked after us from arrival to departure. We have already booked our 8th trip with them!

We have used Transindus for a number of years and find them a most professional organisation. Their in depth knowledge and personal experience is second to none. Our trip to the Deccan Plateau in early 2025 was expertly crafted with local representatives and guides ensuring that we had a truly memorable experience. Thank you Hari for all you did in arranging such a wonderful holiday. Peter & Helen

I WAS OUT SHOPPING TODAY AND A LOVELY LADY WAS TALKING TO A GENTELMAN ON THE PHONE ABOUT HOILDAYS AND TOURS I OVER HEARD AND ASKED HER AFTER SHE FINISHED AND SHE TOLD ME YOUR COMPANY IT WAS I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO A TOUR AND MY FREINDS WOULD ALSO LOVE THIS SO WELL DONE TO THE LOVELY GUY SHAME I DIDNT SPEAK TO HIM THE YOUNG LADY SAID HIS NAME WAS GARRETT SO HOW CAN I BOOK PLEASE

We just got back from our private 18-days trip to Vietnam organized by TransIndus. It’s our third travel with this company, and all of them have been excellent. In this occasion I had a problem as In Hue I had a fall at the Saigon Morin Hotel, which required me to go to the hospital. There, they performed a series of tests to check for any fractures in my head and ribs, and stitched up an open wound on my temple. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries, although I did have a hard fall, so I was able to continue my trip, with the recommendation to go to another hospital in Saigon to have the stitches removed. The assistance of Mr. Yung (our guide in Hue) in the initial moments and throughout the trip in Hue and Hoi Ann was invaluable. The local agent of TransIndus in Vietnam, Mr. Nhut, also contacted us immediately and continued to address all the needs that arose from the accident throughout the rest of the trip. Their availability at any time, their immediate responses, and their efficiency deserve our utmost gratitude, and we want to emphasize this.
Next there is a brief resume of our valoration of the trip
Score scale: 1 extremely bad- 10 excellent
Drivers were always excellent, kind, safe and polite and our cars were very comfortable. (Score 10).
Guides were good, accurately following the schedule and always on time. However, some of them (in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh) suffer from a lack of proactivity, responding to our questions, but without providing any kind of suggestions by themselves (score 8). Our guide in Hue and Hoi Ann (Mr. Yung) deserves special mention as he was exceptional!.An excellent guide, with a deep knowledge of the area, his suggestions improved the programme in a way perfectly adapted to us. Also, his assistance after the accident was a great help for us. We were very lucky to got him as a guide (score 10).
Cruises: La Regina in Ha Long Bay and Bassac III in Mekong delta
Both were very good. Both ships were very comfortable, accommodation and meals being excellent (score 10). The crew was also very kind helpìng us at any moment. The scheduled activities were globally interesting and well organized, but the visit to Viet Hai with La Regina, and the visit to the floating market with Bassac were a little bit disappointing.
The visits and activities were well organized and they were as expected from a classical travel. The only problem was that some of them were very crowded (score 9). An activity that was a nice surprise was the floral workshop in Hanoi. I strongly recommend this activity to any flower lover (score 10)
Hotels
Pullman in Hanoi (score 9)
Very nice hotel, with rooms wide and comfortable, and a good restaurant. The only problem is that, in spite of being centric, the surroundings have very little interest. Anyway, it is comfortable enough to compensate for the location..
Saigon Morin in Hue (score 8)
A charming hotel with historical interest. Comfortable and with an excellent breakfast. However, they should better mark the lobby steps to avoid accidents like mine (we already made this suggestion to the hotel staff).
Boutique Hai Ann Resort. in Hoi Ann (score 8).
A good hotel. Unfortunately we could not use the beach, or swimming pool due to my accident combined with very bad weather. Some parts of the hotel need better maintenance. Restaurant fine.
The Anan in Mui Ne (score 10). Excellent.
The rooms were comfortable, the pools were great, the beach access was good, and the restaurant was excellent. The half-day tour to visit the dunes and the fishing village, which we booked through the hotel, was also perfect.
Silverland Ben Thanh in Ho Chi Minh (8)
A very modern hotel with a peculiar aesthetic. The rooms are very small but well laid out. However, they are not recommended for stays longer than two days (they are too small). The whole hotel feels a bit claustrophobic, except for the dining room and the pool, which are on the terrace and have magnificent views. The breakfast is rather basic for Western tastes, and the breakfast box we received on our departure day was clearly insufficient.

We had a wonderful experience with Trans Indus. The ground staff were so professional and caring. We felt completely safe at all times and with excellent guides and an amazing driver (Vikram) excellent selection of hotels and breath-taking sites it was a winning combination. Trans Indus are definitely who will travel with for our next visit to this exciting & evocative destination. Many thanks Peter & Julia November 2025

Well……… this certainly was the most incredible trip organised by Hari at TransIndus. The 3 1/2 weeks the two of us spent travelling in India were so well organised; had everything plus more with regards to interesting tours; the chance to buy some wonderful gifts for family and friends; eating in well-chosen restaurants; hunting out cafes that served ‘real’ coffee and being taken around by expert drivers who made us feel completely safe despite the many cows and dogs sitting in the middle of main roads and casually walking across carriageways!
Our guides knew everything we needed to know about the sights they took us to and were always looking out for us when crossing roads or walking in crowded places. They were all just brilliant!
Our homestays and hotels were perfect with delicious breakfasts and sometimes evening meals.
We were worried about getting the infamous ‘Delhi-belly’ but took our own water bottles that filter and clean any water (didn’t try the Ganges!) and ate the fabulous curd yoghurt every day. Not a hint of anything! Brought all the stomach pills and potions back with us.
A trip of a lifetime.
We were recommended to use TransIndus by a friend - we would forward that recommendation to anyone who wants to really see and understand the fabulous country that is India.

This was our fifth wonderful tour with TransIndus, we so enjoyed Tea Gardens and Eastern Himalaya. The tour was expertly organised by Brijesh and the entire team in India looked after us so well and carefully. The itinerary ran seamlessly even the weather enabled us to see Kanchenjunga at sunrise and Everest on the horizon. We thoroughly recommend TransIndus for a great trip in Asia.

We have just been been on a group tour to the golden triangle and Kerala, and it was really marvellous. The tour took in all the sites without us feeling rushed the guides were all terrific (the one in Jaipur had shown the president of France around the week before). We were there for Diwali and went to a really super Gala night as part of the tour, one of the best parties I’ve ever been to. I would recommend this company.

We have just returned from a 31 day tour of Vietnam & the Islands of Raja Ampat, organised by TransIndus. My contact Roop was great - he understood what we wanted to achieve from our trip and always responded promptly to my queries. We were particularly impressed that, although our trip around the Islands of Raja Ampat was booked through a separate company, TransIndus were still prepared and able to book the flights to and from Indonesia to make this happen! As it was our first visit to Vietnam we had feedback regarding the itinerary and how we might have changed it with hindsight which, as a company, they were very ready to take on board. As with life, some guides were better than others, but logistically everything went very smoothly and we felt "looked after" at every stage. Therefore, we would not hesitate in recommending TransIndus and would certainly use them again ourselves!

I have recently returned from a tailor-made trip to mainland India and the Andaman Islands, through TransIndus. My discussions to put the trip together were professionally handled in a friendly manner, all my questions were answered comprehensively and the proposed intinerary, based on those discussions, covered all that I was looking for.

All arrangements went without a hitch. For part of the trip I had a guide and at other times I made my own arrangements. Local representatives, guides and drivers were first rate. It was clear that everyone I met was both knowledgeable and attentive. Guides were flexible as to the time spent at locations and my time with them was more of a conversation, as opposed to being the recipient of a lecture. All possessed a sense of humour! Hotels were well situated and comfortable.

In summary, I could not have wished for better handling of my requiremets and I have no hesitation in recommending this company to others.

Transindus arranged a bespoke trip to Ladakh for 2 of us, early in the year. The planning was meticulous and the trip was all we could have wanted, but when the return trip was made complicated by the closure of Leh airport due to hostilities, their local contacts went above and beyond in arranging alternative transportation.
Transindus has always been a thoroughly helpful company.

Just go acknowledge from a individual tailor-made tour in India. The arrangements and hotels were spot on. Guides very informative and interesting. Hotels amazing. The whole process from first contact to delivery was without fault definitely us Trans Indus again
