    Travelling with Praxis has been a unique and enriching experience! Thanks to the meticulous planning done by Praxis team, all the objectives of our Char Dham tour were met with success. Our tour planning started in early Feb when we contacted Praxis about booking a trip to Char Dham with family members. All interactions with staff (Ms. Gomathi M) and owner of Praxis (Mr P B Vanchi) were pleasant and reassuring! After we paid the advance, it was heartening to note that the agency started communicating all details of the various reservations and bookings that were being made on our behalf. At all times, till we departed on our tour in early June, we were informed of the requirements on the trip and of the travel and stay and food arrangements being made. It is obvious that experience of prior tours was being used to better the services and offerings on the next one. Right from the time we landed in Dehradun’s Jolly Grant Airport on 6 Jun 2022 to the time we were dropped back on the 18 Jun 2022, we were impressed with the timely receptions and the schedules being adhered to, at all times. Any eventualities (a Yatri couple had to rush back home, another’s baggage was missed by the airline, a few people had medical issues) were handled professionally and in an empathetic and caring manner by our three excellent guides. None of the other Yatris was inconvenienced at any time. We are all aware that travelling in the Hills of Uttarakhand has many challenges. The roads are narrow, and landslides are common. But our expert drivers negotiated the routes very well, and drove safely. At many places, they went out of the way to help Yatris, and were very patient and kind. Praxis put us up in the best hotels available at each of the halt points. Almost all the locations were in scenic locations, with holy rivers gurgling nearby! While food was uniform in quality at most places, we urge Praxis to ensure there is a variety of cuisine and choices at some of the locations. Time management at each of the Char Dhams was efficiently done. There are many variables in such locations, like availability of “Dolis” or “Pittus” and helicopters and the employment of people to facilitate the temple entry. Though everyone had a good darshan, Praxis can look at optimizing the availability of these (while appreciating that this is not something Praxis owns). The one or two preparatory video conference calls held by Praxis before our tour began, answered questions Yatris had, and also set expectations on both sides clearly. Our three guides gave active and positive briefings each morning, and debriefed us patiently after each visit. The three made our trip special with their thorough knowledge of the divine places, and of Hindu mythology. We commend Praxis for ensuring continuous availability of bottled drinking water in all cars and in the locations we visited. Very thoughtfully, oxygen canisters were handed out to all Yatris, some of which were put to use in high altitudes. Our group had a stress-free pilgrimage to the Chota Char Dham – Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath, along with memorable stays in Haridwar and Rishikesh. I recommend a holiday or pilgrimage with Praxis!

    We... our family of 10 members enjoyed / experienced the tough tour of Amarnath from 10th July 2023 to 13th July 2023 ..... the whole trip which is supposed to be the toughest of Shiva darshan was made very comfortable. We had to take a RFID (Radio frequency Identity card) for the authorities to trace us... but it looked as if "team Praxis" has also acess to it. Having said this I would like to highlight that "team Praxis" consisting of the owner Mr. Vanchi, Ms. Gomathi sitting in Chennai, their tour Manager Mr. Satish and Guides Mr. Dinesh and Mr. Manoj on the location made us very comfortable. The selection of hotels for stay at Srinagar and Sonmarg too was very good. This is our 2nd tour after last season Chardham and I and my family are once again overwhelmed by the repeated passion you took care of us that you deserve a big THANK YOU for the warmth and hospitality... We had very good and comfortable darshan. I just once again conclude by one word which will highlight the full trip "WOW - II" (WOW was the first tour)😁

    My parents visited Andaman recently with Praxis holidays. We truly appreciate for all the efforts & attention taken by Vanchiji in making their trip a great success with great passion. She specifically mentioned to me that the hotel stay was absolutely beautiful at every destination The vehicle and meals were all excellent. The manager, the Representatives, the drivers and the guides were all professionals and worthy of saying thanks for a well done job. It was a pleasant surprise to receive a birthday cake for my fathers birthday on the ferry by the tour Manager. They had a wonderful time! It is always delightful to travel with Praxis. No second thought! I always prefer my parents to travel with praxis only.

    Our travel to char dham through Praxis was one of our most memorable experiences. From the planning stage to every single day of the tour, we were met with consistent vigour. Excellent drivers, stay arrangements, guides and dharshan at each location. The route itself isn't the easiest but we were made to feel as comfortable as possible. Highly recommended.

    We had a wonderful family vacation organized by Praxis I'm Jaipur/Udaipur for 5 days. Right from the start, planning the itinerary and sending us the boarding passes, quick and apt service from Ms. Gomathy, thank you for that. The organized vehicle and driver were comfortable and knowledgeable, so were the guides Amit ji. The stay at Marriott in Jaipur was amazing, no complaints and most comfortable. The stay at Aurika was a bit of a let down considering it's reputation. Highly recommend Praxis for planning all your future vacations, Thank you.

    Hey guys, Praxis holidays is the best tourist experience I had in my life. My trip to Maldives for 3 nights 4 days in a 5 star resort and spa named "Kurumba Maldives" was living in a royal lifestyle. Being a world traveller, I recommend a trip to have the most experience, enjoyment and leisure than any other tourist planner can offer leaving the cost blindfolded. Being in a full board package with loads of complimentary in-room services, my parents loved the food experience. Even though it was mostly a non-veg continental buffet, the resort delivered a sumptuous vegetarian meals. This truly satisfied my parents who were strictly vegetarian. Also, as a south Indian our dishes had also included dosas with Sambar on the fourth day of our stay. "Believe me, every meal in that restaurant is to die for". On this note, I give a hats off to Praxis for making a short package an experience to remember for lifetime. Anand Ram, Cheers and take care.

    We had a family vacation planned in December 2023 along with relatives who wanted to visit Delhi Agra and Jaipur. We contacted Praxis holidays, and inspite of the short duration of time, they arranged an excellent tour for our family of 11 members with ages ranging from 9 to 79 years. They had arranged for a guide at all places, with a vehicle for travel and another vehicle for luggage. Our stay at each place was cozy and luxurious. Inspite of it being the peak of the tourist season at each of the places, our tour guides ensured a safe and Hassel free visit to all the heritage sites. It is wonderful to have Praxis as a travel companion and guide. Thankyou Mr Vanchi and miss Gomati for your meticulous tailoring of our itenary. We had a blast.

Would definitely book through you again.

    We had an unforgettable Rajasthan holiday experience with Praxis taking care of every detail so well. Mr Vanchi and Ms Gomathi coordinated our travel from start to finish. We had an excellent driver Girver Singh who took us everywhere. The guides were very knowledgeable at each location - Kushal at Udaipur, Tribhuvan at Jodhpur and Rajesh at Jaisalmer. All these places are must sees, as there is so much history, architecture, engineering, beauty and intricate art, that castles in Germany or Switzerland don't even come close. Overall, we highly recommend the PRAXIS team.

  • 5/5 Ramana R. 1 year ago on Google
    Praxis Holidays have managed the entire Muktinath Yatra efficiently. Not a single glitch in our 7 days trip. Guides have knowledge spiritual as well as materialistic. Jalandhar gave clear picture everyday. Accommodation chosen by Vanchi was exemplary. Planning of entire trip was meticulous. We could see nature in its fullness due to good transport driven by excellent drivers. We could get the food to suit specific needs in all locations ie whether a roadside halt or in the hotel where we stayed. We could pray everywhere with the 100 percent support from tour operator. I recommend Praxis wholeheartedly

  • 5/5 Praveen S. 1 year ago on Google
    Praxis team did a splendid job organizing our holiday, right from suggesting the destination, booking the flights, doing the paper work for the visa/immigration process, every minute detail was looked into and taken care of (like customizing the trip based on our requirements, providing water bottles daily to beat the warm April weather of Bali, making sure we got a guide who was fluent in English, guiding us places to dine based on our cuisine preferences, making private transportation available to us throughout the day and many many more). The team were contactable throughout the trip and were ready to help immediately with the minor hassles that might arise. The travel experience with them was phenomenal, hats off to the entire team. Keep up the good work, looking forward to take many more holidays with you. Cheers!

    Thanks to Praxis for the wonderful arrangements made during our 6 days trip to Kathmandu, Pokhara and Muktinath. The arrangements made by Praxis team were top notch and the local team in Kathmandu were very cordial, friendly and made us feel at home. Transportation, accommodation and dining were well arranged at all places. Jain food was arranged even at remote locations. The Trip co-ordinator and his support staff were very knowledgeable and were continuously providing us briefs on the places in Nepal. Kudos to Mr. Vanchi and his team for having made our trip memorable. Needless to mention Praxis name is recommended to our near and dear for future trips. Keep up the good work. Thanks once again Sairaj and Aruna

  • 5/5 Lakshmi R. 1 year ago on Google
    Praxis Holidays, made our Chardham Yatra, a memorable one. We travelled in comfort, with 3 persons in an Innova, were put up in the top hotels available the places. For a group of 24, they arranged 3 guides, who took care of all the aspects with regard to booking the pujas, escorting us and even ensured we were well fed, at all the places, including at smaller places like Yamunotri. One can't ask for more, considering we were on a pilgrimage where hardships are to be expected. Mr Vanchi monitored us all the way, and gave us directions to the 'T'. Crisis management was his forte! Looking forward to ding more trips with them. Lakshmi Rao

    We had a wonderful trip arranged by praxis holidays to Tanzania . It was booked 2 years back Praveen had to rebook it twice because of covid and travel confusion. It was 3 times the work but he did it with a smile. We had such an amazing trip everything was so perfect the lodges were of very high standard including your own personal butler looking after you .I normally research everything before hand this was one trip I didn’t do anything . Praveen kept his promise all I had to do was enjoy my trip . This was my first trip to Africa and my husband loved it too . Iam looking forward to my next trip with praxis . Praveen and Yamuna were actually keeping track whether everything was going smoothly .we were even informed when the flight was a couple of our delayed and even the pick up was informed. It is these small things which make a big impact on us .iam really happy I chose praxis holidays

    Our Char-Dham journey started on the 12th Oct. From day 1 of our yatra, our group of 24 were very happy and relaxed. The entire credit goes to the tour managers/guides Sathish, Naveen and Manoj, who did an impeccable job throughout. The hero of Praxis is Mr Vanchi sir who organized the spiritual yatra. His presence in Kedarnath was very uplifting. The choice of hotels, the food served was awesome. The drivers were so professional and cooperative, ensured our 12 days drive was smooth. Iam sure each of the yatris would love to travel again with Praxis to different destinations....Thank you Praxis and thank you Vanchi Sir....for the excellent service.

    We just had one amazing holiday at Maldives curated by Praxis holidays (Dr Pravin Vanchi and the entire team). Simply put the reason the holiday was super fun and relaxing was because of Praxis. We are simply awed by the way they handled our holiday Patience At every stage they patiently listened, answered all our queries and understood all our needs. They made sure we were super comfortable and sure of our choices Support At every stage we had complete support from the team. From choosing our destination, arranging tickets and transports they gave complete support. The way they informed us about all the essential travel forms and new necessities that we need to follow after covid made our trip completely hassle free. Safety They surely know what they are doing. Their experience made is completely safe in a new environment. We had an issue at Maldives airport regarding my son's RTPCR.. but it was sorted by the praxis team within a span of minutes. They were present with us throughout the trip and made sure we were getting the best out of this holiday. Special thanks to Ms Yamuna who guided us throughout our trip and making it a memorable one. They surely give their hundred percent at every stage to make our holidays special. Thank you Praxis for your dedication.

  • 5/5 Krishnamurthi V. 2 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    We (4 of us) took a 17 day trip across Rajasthan, Ajanta, Ellora, and several temples in, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, and, Tamil Nadu around Kumbakonam + Tirupati and Tiruchanur. Super-First-Rate service. Vanchi Sir himself stays in the hotels to verify their high quality before recommending. There is no other tourist agency in India that comes to quality offered by Praxis. I am glad I availed their services. For each temple he arranged tickets, connection with priests to make it a smooth experience. I could not have done the 12 temples we visited without his help. Great support from Ms Gomathi and Mr Balaji in our travels. We will use them for many trips in the future.

    I had an exceptional experience with Praxis Travels during my trip to Sri Lanka. The accommodation and transportation services were seamlessly arranged. The guide cum driver was not only punctual but also delightful and informative, adding a personalized touch to the journey. The choice of Hotel Jetwing, offering a picturesque view of the beach, was a highlight. The Yala safari was impeccably organized, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable adventure. I highly recommend Praxis Travels for their professionalism and attention to detail, making my Sri Lankan journey truly memorable.
