Fun and knowledgeable The trip was excellent and was surely a memorable experience. I have travelled a lot of places in India and have often observed that many do not show interest in entertaining questions of their guests but trocals takes into consideration what their guests want to see and do not resist or irritate when asked questions about monuments or the city. I would surely recommend trocals for people who wish to have a knowledgeable experience…
