Since 1987, it has been my life's work to share the soul of India with the world, not just as destinations on a map, but as vibrant experiences etched into the heart.
TSI exists to venture beyond the usual paths to uncover stories hidden in the silent stones of ancient temples and the lively eyes of market vendors. Our dedicated team, a robust extension of my own family, embodies professionalism but with a familial warmth, ensuring that every journey with us is crafted with love and deep respect for our culture.
As you journey with us, you're not just a traveler; you're part of a story that began decades ago and continues to unfold through every unexplored corner of India we discover together. I'm proud to invite you into this ongoing story, one that we write anew with each traveler who joins our family.

All the services provided by TSI were customer focus all around and the service to the highest standards. Udaipur cooking demonstration and Taj Mahal visit was the best thing we experienced during the tour. Overall the itinerary planned was satisfactory and value for money. Our assessment of the driver service goes over the excellent mark and a true pleasure to be driven around by him. Always safe, always smooth, always efficient, always spot-on!

Mr. Anton Pieter Tierie

The tour was a wonderful experience greatly enjoyed by our group. Although some bus trips were long due to traffic and roadworks, everyone understood that this was beyond the control of the tour operators. The only slightly disappointing hotel was Deogarh Mahal as the owners have not invested in maintenance since our last visits. Manoj handled all arrangements perfectly and all the people in our groups thought he was wonderful.

Well organised and very professional. Everything was in place and worked very well. Guides and drivers were very friendly and professional. The itinerary was very full but there were no problems.

The services are very good". Mr. Pawan is an excellent driver who does everything to make your holiday even better. We would like to thank him. We had a very good trip, everything was well organised. No complaints whatsoever however the last 2 days (Bhattapur en Negarot can be done one day if you are not planning to hike we felt that Negarot cost us a lot of money and didn't make our holiday better only longer. Tip - You can book a flight to see the Himalaya for sure. After that there is no urgency to go to Negarot.

We are very pleased with all the services provided by TSI. The trip is well balanced with all the transport, stays and visits. The hotels provided are very good. We enjoyed the trip and all visits very much. With the change in program Haridwar instead of Varanasi we believe that the trip is well managed. The guides organized were helpful to get a more complete picture of what India has to offer. Our driver Ashwani gave us the suggestion to visit the Gandhiji Museum next to our hotel, that was a very good suggestion and this initiative adds value.

Excellent service from TSI from handling query to itinerary planning, hotel selection, transportation, guides provided for the entire tour. Our guide was intelligent, caring, well informed and we learned so much, very organized and on time and professional. He made our experience during 11 days even more special! He also made our stay in India a dream come true - his kindness and invitation regarding our needs was perfect and his vast knowledge, ad storytelling, kept us engaged during the entire trip. Our driver Khan was also an experienced and expert driver all around. Mukesh our manager at Travel Spirit made this planning and logistics of our trip hassle free - He chose great sites and was absolutely accommodating about making changes throughout the trip. Travel Spirit International was the best organizer.

Thank you so very much Manoj for your superb organisation and kindness. Fabulous holiday with so much interesting information. My first trip to India is full of wonderful memories. I perhaps would have enjoyed more 3 night stays but realise we would not have covered so much territory. 2 and 1 night stays I find exhausting but that was the nature of the trip. Overall a wonderful experience never to be forgotten.

Extremely well organized and a good variety of experience-generous inclusions, meals, level of hotels and entry fees. The hotels were a destination in themselves. Very compatible and inclusive group of people, facilitated by Liz and Ian and Manoj - an awesome threesome who helped us in every way. Excellent lectures in history by out grade guides and by Ian on his incredible knowledge of spices. A pity we couldn’t stay longer in some places but it is hard to say what we would have missed out on. A longer time for shopping would have been great in the Jewish area of Cochin. Overall, a well-planned and organized trip-we both enjoyed it enormously thank you!

The trip program was excellent and balanced, enabling us to enjoy Indian culture, history and cuisine. As promised there was a surprise every day and being based in one hotel for two or three nights meant we never felt we were being pushed along too quickly. All hotels were luxurious and comfortable and a welcome retreat at night. Manoj’s leadership and guidance were outstanding and he was always patient courteous and a remarkable problem solver example negotiating our travel from Kumily during a general strike. Our local guides and drivers were always very professional although the Lucknow was too wordy. Liz and Ian, your guidance and knowledge of spices was integral to the success of this wonderful trip. Thank you all.

We had a wonderful three week trip. It was well thought out in every way.
