“Super Mukesh”
5 of 5 starsReviewed 18 December 2013
Hello,
We had a very nice 3 week-trip in Rajasthan with Mukesh Sain. We just can recommand him strongly if you're planning to come to Rajasthan. We had a really nice time with him and always felt very safe in his car and with him in the streets.
We knew him through an agency so we can't comment on the hotel booking services he can offer but as a driver he is surely the best, and with no doubt he's as good in other services.
Mukesh is a very friendly, smiling man, with lots of humour and lots to tell you about. He can tell you about India, the clothes of the people you meet, the animals and plants you see, the temples and meanings of them: we learnt a lot thanks to him and we can say that it wouldn't have been the same without him. We wouldn't have understood India at all.
Mukesh also showed us lots of very good and local restaurants, he always talked to the cook to get sure he cooked all properly and not too spicy for us, when something wasn't ok according to him, he brought the dish back and ordered another. We always ate very good indian food, also in restaurants we perhaps wouldn't have gone to without him. We also tried out very good local pastries on the roadside, things we discovered thanks to him.
Mukesh never tried to push us to a shop or any other attraction, he asked us if we were interested in something, and if we were he brought us to and if we weren't he didn't. He showed us lots of interesting places and could also say if a temple was good to see or not, as we saw a lot everyday. We also went to have a haircut at his brother in law's shop and it was well done and very cheap for us.
On the roads we must say that it really is impossible for a foreigner to drive and we saw lots of car crashes. Nevertheless we always felt safe because Mukesh drove very carefully and not too fast. He has a family and has no reason to drive dangerously neither!
We had a meal at noon with his family and it was very nice, his family is very kind and we felt as a part of it as we were guests there. We could try out homemade chapati and samosa and more and it was delicious.
So, Mukesh, thank you very much for this great trip we had with you, it was a pleasure to be your guests and we hope future will be good for you, that Lord Ganesh will give you lots of luck and that you and your family always will live happily. Good luck Mukesh!
Pascale and Yannick, your young swiss guests
