Participant - Incredible Lahaul & Spiti Photo-Expedition
Dear Sanjiv,
Thorouly enjoyed the Spiti Lahaul expedition. Your eye for details whether it is travel routes selection of drivers , food ,hotels for our stay are always excusite and enjoyable ,after 3 trips
with you i am taking it for granted,but I do understand months of planning and organizing goes in to it. Our heartfelt thanks to you.
Dear Dheeraj Paul,
You are one in a million personality. Your skill acumen and mind are as large or even larger than your personality. Your way of teaching is unique,your personal attention to everyone in the team
during star gazing photography was admirable. I learnt new nuances on portraiture, Landscape,Galaxy Photography, playing with Apperture in landscape with the type of sun was a new lesson for me.Your
emphasis on exposure makes a lot of sense so that we could take less but perfect photos. Your eye for photo opportunity from nowhere is a real learning. Thanks for being a wonderful,humorous always
smiling Guru for us. Thanks a Ton.
Wish you both many more successful tour organizing.

Dear Sanjivji and Dheeraj...
Concur with others views here. Both of you are thorough professionals who deliver on the tour plan despite multiple variables not in your control. Always you have our interests as a priority. Sony is lucky to have you as the organizing company.
This is my 4th tour with you and irrespective of the tour theme, your planning and execution is impeccable. You also closely understand each of the participants unique needs and ensure no one is left out. Being a diverse group with very different backgrounds, handling this is never easy in such a short span of time.
I personally enjoyed this trip. Leaving with memories for a lifetime..both in person and captured digitally...thanks to your photography expertise and coaching.
I do look forward to more such trips with you both. Best Regards!!

Dear Photophiles , Wanderers , Explorers and Adventure’s ?
I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible journey I have had in this Photo Tour
I extend my heartfelt thanks to @Sanjiv Sir for introducing me to this Tour & all the support that has made this experience seamless and enjoyable.
Spiti Valley what I have seen and known and what’s experienced in this tour are Worlds Apart ?
Foremost , I would like to sincerely thank Mr. @Dheeraj Paul Sir for his exceptional mentorship. His wisdom, guidance, and patience have played a pivotal role in nurturing my passion for photography. I feel fortunate to have had such an experienced mentor who not only shared valuable insights but also encouraged me to push beyond my limitations.
Although I am still an amateur, the mentorship and support I have received from everyone have motivated me beyond measure.
This experience has ignited a newfound curiosity in me, deepening my interest in photography
Thank you all once again for your unwavering support and for creating such a nurturing environment for learning and growth.
Thank You @Barkha Merani Spiti 2017 Ji for sharing so many insights & Satya Sir and Bhaskar Sir for the wonderful company all the while !!
Participant - Incredible Lahaul & Spiti Photo-Expedition
I reached home safely with wonderful memories and pictures.
Deeraj sir, thank you for your mentorship. You have trained us in different genres of photography in a single photo tour. I am thankful for the training provided to us on on-filed camera settings,
using various filters. using tripod and other camera gear. You are so patient and kind to explain every aspect of photography and answer all queries. I was able to get much value from this photo
tour.
Sanjiv sir, the arrangements, logistics, and communication provided to participants regarding the literary in the entire tour were outstanding. This is obvious from some participants participating
multiple times for your photo tours and that too from overseas.
I think India Photo Tours is making the Sony popular by providing training not only on photography but also using the Sony equipment to its potential.
I thank all the participants who mingled like friends throughout the entire tour, I always felt like at home. special thanks to my roommate, Bharat and car mate, Kartheek and Bhaskar sir for
providing good company in entire journey !!
Thank You !!

Thank you for organizing a wonderful tour full of superb photo opportunities. I and Manish had great time and we are looking forward to another tour with you guys as soon as we can - Dheeraj, you are a highly creative and talented professional with amazingly high level of energy.
Your soft but direct way in guiding all of us was really helpful. You have also a great knack for using wit without hurting sentiments of others. You are honest and transparent in your approach to
training which is hallmark of a truly legendary guru. And of course, you are a great photographer.
Sanjiv, your organizational skills and readiness to help each of us were really heartwarming and touching. You are indeed a good person at heart and whatever limited interaction we could have, I
really felt that genuine person within you.
It was a really great and amazing experience for me and Manish and we both sincerely thank you...
Participant - The Jewels of Rajasthan Masterclass Feb 2017 & Lords and Leopards of Bera 2017
Our Indian photographic adventure was absolutely fantastic! From the moment I contacted them to the moment we arrived back in Australia, they looked after us as part of their family.
I travelled with my 9 year old son and he was also treated as an important photographer in the group! Every small detail was meticulously planned, the family hotels were wonderful and the transport was efficient and safe. The mentoring for our architecture, street and portrait photography was exemplary. I learnt many things, not only about photography and from the mentors but also about the country, the people and customs from the other participants.
They were all very kind and helpful. When we finished the tour our wonderful guides (friends) kept in constant contact with everyone to make sure we all arrived home safely. The group is still in contact, sharing their amazing photos and giving positive feedback to each other’s work.
Thanks to Mili, Dheeraj, Sanjiv and Mrigank for taking care of us and showing us their beautiful country. I can’t wait for the next trip !!
