India Holidays 2019
I first met Prashant Sharma in 2004 when he was our tour guide to Haridwar & Rishikesh. When I started planning my 2019 holiday, I contact Prashant who was now with Monks & Monkeys Since March 2019 he advised on suitable hotels and arranged my internal flights. There was many whatsapp calls and messages from me and not once did he complain. Thank you Prashant
