India with its diverse topography caters to varied travel destinations for all interest groups. The array of hotels available in India is equally varied - from super luxury hotels to modest home stays; from opulent palaces of erstwhile Maharajas to quaint Colonial bungalows converted into hotels, from rugged safari camps to wildlife lodges, from ornately decorated houseboats in Kashmir and the traditional riceboats of Kerala to austere ashrams and dharamshalas - this wide range caters equally to travellers who seek modest comfort as well as those who seek privacy and creature comforts.
Our forte at BTS is choosing the right hotel, conforming to the profile of the traveller. We are up to date with rates and information on hotels. All hotels recommended by us are personally checked out and then suggested to our clients. |

Twenty years ago one could only offer the workhorse in the form of the ungainly Ambassador car - a 1955 model of the Morris, which is manufactured to this day. Today we have the convenience of choice from over 50 models of cars and SUVs, depending on the budget, comfort and terrain chosen by our clients. For groups, we offer an array of mini vans and coaches. Our chauffeurs have years of experience and are sensitive to the fact that plying on Indian roads can be a daunting and overwhelming experience for a first-time traveller.
Travelling on India's vast rail network, which carries some 16 million passengers daily, is an experience in itself. Apart from comfortable regular fast trains, we also arrange travel on the quaint Toy trains that chug their way up hillsides and luxury trains such as the Palace on Wheels, the Deccan Odyssey and the Heritage on Wheels.

Travelling includes savouring the gastronomic specialities of the country. We research and choose a repertoire of recommended restaurants only for their culinary excellence but also for their ambience and the variety of live entertainment they provide. We also plan the menu in advance, incorporating the local fare. |
