Frequently Asked Questions

At Alkof Holidays, we ensure smooth travel planning. Our FAQ covers everything from booking procedures and payment methods to travel itineraries, best times to visit, hotel upgrades, and more. For more assistance, contact us anytime.

The best time to visit Shimoga is from October to March, when the weather is pleasant and ideal for exploring the region's waterfalls and natural beauty. The monsoon season, from June to September, brings heavy rainfall, making it a great time to experience the waterfalls in full flow, though travel may be challenging due to slippery roads and potential flooding. It’s best to avoid visiting during the peak summer months of April and May, as the heat can be intense and less enjoyable for outdoor activities.

The ratings are given in the context of the price we paid which was extremely reasonable for the attentive service we were given. We were looked after at all times including being dropped off onto our correct train carriage in Delhi. The itinerary was full but not rushed. I would use Alkof tours again and recommend them to others.

We had to alter our plans and extended the tour for 2 more days. From second day we started our sightseeing of Delhi, next day visited Agra, then Fatehpur Sikri and then Jaipur. The driver and the local guides were punctual, polite, and worked very hard to make our trip enjoyable. Sachin made sure we saw everything on our bucket list. I recommend Alkof Holidays, thank you so much.
