Average - could use improvement

September 02, 2024

3.5 Stars Hotel was not as good as we had experienced on other tours of India. Broken A/C and mold on wall of first room - so we asked to be moved which was done. Tour guide nice - but didn't seem to have anything to do with us since monsoon season had closed many things and he walked around tied to his phone with ear piece (he seemed bored by us). The first day we did 1 hour of walking into Old Rishikesh but then had to wait outside for 4 hours sitting doing nothing until night-time to see Ganga Arti. Felt the tour service did not inform him of specifics of the tour so some of this may not be his fault. The yoga was average but the morning view of Ganges was wonderful. Great massage Driver good
