About
We are an India Tour Company that offers the true experience of India bringing out its real charms, which is why we named it “Hidden Treasures of India”. India being a diverse sub-continent, a tourist not only requires a tour operator in India but a fellow companion who is equally enthusiastic about traveling and exploring the essence of India. We practice a religion called “Tourism”.

I've been returning to India over and over again during these past fifty (!) years and have traveled with a number of organizations: American, British and Indian. By far the best of these is "Hidden Treasures of India," which I've now worked with on at least a half dozen occasions. My latest itinerary involved a month spent entirely within the state of Himachal Pradesh, of which I'd seen only a small portion in the past (i.e., on the way back from Ladakh). I was determined to see quite a number of remote, mostly untouristed locations and to spend some time in the town of Kullu during its annual Dusshera celebration. I managed to get to every one of those destinations thanks to Sheesh having spent a great deal of time organizing the route and the hotels and providing me with an absolutely brilliant driver (some of those roads seemed particularly difficult to negotiate). It was a great trip- better even than I had hoped for. Needless to say, I'll be traveling with Hidden Treasures again in the near future. I've learned after 20 or so visits, that not seeing more of India is unthinkable- as is spending my time there with any company other "Hidden Treasures."

This was my third fantastic trip in two years organized and extremely well executed by Sheesh from Hidden treasures of India.
Everything from hotels, guides, drivers, automobiles provided were absolutely top quality. Sheesh is readily available by phone to small problems such as airline checking etc and solves these on the spot.
I am already planning a Sikkim trip with them in 2024 March and another to Leh in July.
They even managed Nepal trips, religious places and memorable Tiger safaris.

I was apprehensive about visiting India as a solo female traveller and found it difficult to find accurate information online for my trip to Rathamblore National Park, so I reached out to Sheesh @ Hidden Treasures of India to help me. He was extremely helpful, attentive and fast at communicating throughout, and offered helpful suggestions to enhance my trip (I originally wanted to visit Sariska but Sheesh recommended Rathamblore for a better chance to see tigers). He took the complete stress out of my trip, even when I missed my train (my fault completely - oops!). Sheesh found a wonderful 4* hotel for me, the food and service were just amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. And of course, I saw tigers!! 🐯

This was my first tour to India/Nepal provided by Hidden Treasures of India with Sheesh Moondh as our tour guide. Our tour was well organized and planned from Kerala to Kathmandu. Sheesh was efficient and knowledgeable tour guide who made our trip an enjoyable one. He also recommended other areas of interests to our group. We visited a spice plantation where we were greeted by the owner, who gave us an educational tour. Thanks for recommending the flight to Mt. Everest with a spectacular view. Also thanks to the drivers and other guides who welcomed to India/Nepal.

The trip was amazing. Sheesh did a great job planning all the tours to include interesting sites and things to do. The tours of the tea and spice plantations were awesome and educational.

Dear Sheesh,
Namaste!
We are safely home and have to thank you for the immaculate arrangements of our trip. Every transit worked like clockwork.
We found that all the guides knew their subjects and were very helpful. The guide in Nepal, Rohan Sakha, was very knowledgeable and informative.
All the drivers were wonderful and helpful. Charan was exceptional, and so was the driver in Kathmandu – I unfortunately forgot his name.
The hotels proved to be good choices.
We came home with an impression of friendly people, both in India and Nepal.
It was a very enriching experience, and we are glad that we embarked upon it.
Thank you again, for your excellent guidance and planning.
We did not expect to receive gifts when we met with you, but what a kind gesture. Thank you – it is something that will always remind us of the experience.
We wish you lots of visitors and many safe travels.

Since 2000 we travel more often through the beautiful special and fascinating India.
We used to do this by public transport, especially by train and bus.
We are now a bit older and have approached several Indian tour operators for the first time. Because of the pleasant and professional mail contact with Sheesh, we chose Hidden Treasures of India. We have not regretted this from the start of our contact, on the contrary.
Hidden Treasures of India, and for us our contact person Shees, planned and arranged our trip in a reliable and pleasant way. Nothing was too much.
Shees accommodated all our wishes as much as possible. He also gave us solicited and unsolicited tips and advice. The transport, the mid-range hotels, the tourist attractions and the visit to various 'tribals' ... all of this was well organized beyond expectations.
Almost every evening we received a thoughtful app from Shees if everything was to our liking.
During our 3-week tour through north-west India, we were able to express our non-pre-planned wishes and, if possible, our program was adjusted.
We highly recommend Hidden Treasures of India. Not only the trip was great, the price was also very good.
All in all, we have made a wonderful tour and, thanks to Shees and his Hidden Treasures of India, we look back with great pleasure and gratitude. We now enjoy our memories and photos.

This was my first time in India and I couldn't have been happier with the services of Hidden Treasures of India. I used them in both Jaipur and Delhi and they provided top-notch guides that were extremely knowledgeable about the culture and history of the country and the sites we visited, but what blew me away was their ability to answer even the random questions that we had about events and places (probably because they both had studied history!). I can definitely recommend Rajesh Pandesar, and Hemant (Delhi). Further, the drivers were very professional, the vehicles were clean and had great AC. I would recommend this service to anyone who wants a great experience and it was well worth the money.

We booked a five day Golden Triangle Tour with Hidden Treasures of India and had the most amazing experience. The hotels booked and the food were top notch.
Our tour guides were all fluent in English and gave us history, as well as pointed out the significant landmarks. The coach driver and assistant also did their utmost to make our trip memorable
We were taken to markets and stores where we sourced beautiful gifts to take back home to loved ones.
We will definitely book with Hidden Treasures of India again. Perhaps our next tour will be Sri Lanka.
Thanks a mil to Sheesh and team.

We are planning to tour Mumbai/Ellora/Ajanta/Sanchi/Khajuraho/Ooty with Hidden Treasures of India, having seen past positive reviews. Appreciate comments from any one who has traveled with Hidden Treasures of India very recently. Thanks.

Traveled twice with them and both times had a great experience. Highly recommend.
I had never heard of ONAM, although I had been to India 5 times. A friend told me abut ONAM and that he booked with Sheesh. I gave Sheesh an idea of cultural things I am interested in and he arranged a wonderful itinerary. It turned out to be my best India trip ever. His suggestions were perfect for me. The guide and the drivers were excellent, and fun to be with. All good photographers, which is important to a solo traveler who has no one to take her photo. I will definitely book again with Sheesh.
