  1. Those were services with good prices.
    But I don't understand "daily breakfast and all taxes except 2.575% Govt. service tax". What does it mean? Mean I have to pay 2.575% more?

    If I am living in Rajasthan, is it possible to join the tours? Any service for collecting tourist?

  2. First of all thanks for your comments.

    In India Govt Service Tax is must on the services provided which you have to pay extra on the final package value.

    Kindly see 'Short Breaks- North India Zone' blog which has packages for Jaipur & Mt Abu (both are in Rajasthan). All our tours are exclusive packages for the couple or family and its not the group tours.

    Should you require any further clarification / information, please feel free to contact us on toursonline.vacations@gmail.com

    Thanks.
