Tour operators information

Information:

Hope you’ve read my previous post evangelizing tour operators. Here is the list of companies I’ve bought packages from and reasonably happy.

Haggis Adventures – Scotland – http://www.haggisadventures.com
Amazingly creative and ‘honest’ people in the business. Will write later about my Scottish experience (yea, it was not just a tour, but an experience).
Rating : 4.5 / 5

Eurostar packages – Belgium & Holland
Eurostar maybe running into a tunnel of losses, but for tourists it is still a great chance to get a great, inexpensive ride in the under-sea tunnel connecting England and France.
Train from London to Brussels is about 3 hours and you can book hotels & packages from affiliated operators. Very reliable.
Rating: 4/5

Orbit Tours & Travels – India – Himachal trip: http://www.orbit-world.com
These guys specialize in business tour packages (of the conferences & exhibitions variety). But of late they are into “Discover India” packages to all the popular destinations in India and abroad.
Recommendable, considering the price and the scale of operations: Rating: 3.5/5
