My trip was awesome! I trekked Mt. Kilimanjaro and what an experience! Everyday it either rained--drops as big as dinner plates--snowed, hailed, ice storm--the night we made it to the summit--the wind blew and generally we had cold weather, but I made it to the summit! That is what my goal was and the weather wasn't going to stop me. The guides were exceptional--Ronald. He told me he would get me to the summit and he did! The support staff were wonderful and the cook--excellent! He even had a cake for me at the end of the trek. It was a perfect trip--memories for a lifetime. Thanks to Meagan for all the planning she did to make my trip exceptional.
Taj Lake Palace
Udaipur, India
Prices From: $446
Set against the backdrop of the majestic Aravalli Mountains on one side of the lake, and lofty palaces on the other, the Taj Lake Palace spreads across a four-acre island – an almost surreal vision in marble. The palace hotel preserves the heritage and tradition of the erstwhile rulers of Udaipur and offers guests a glimpse of a priveleged royal lifestyle.
Over two and a half centuries ago, Maharana Jagat Singh II built a fairytale pleasure of white marble, shimmering afloat on the calm waters of Lake Pichola. His legacy, the Lake Palace, is considered to be one of the most romantic hotels in the world.
Its elegant suites adorned with ornate glasswork, bohemian crystal lights and intricate miniature paintings remain a testimony to courtly love. Overlooking fountain pavilions, hilltop fortresses, awe-inspiring temples and medieval gardens, the Lake Palace is the gateway to Udaipur.
Most of the 83 rooms and suites offer a view of the lake along with the City Palace, Arvalli mountain ranges and/or the Jagmandir Palace, the neighboring island palace. All the rooms are well equipped with guest amenities like international direct dial facility, private bars, satellite television, personal safe, hair dryer and dataport facility amongst others.
At the Taj Lake Palace, guests can enjoy a distinctive dining experience, one that explores the nuances of the finest Indian and international cuisines. From casual, all-day dining to formal, fine dining, guests can look forward to a wide array of delectable culinary delights and refreshing beverages. And for a completely unique experience enjoy cocktails and dinner on The Gangaur Boat, a 150-year old barge, while cruising the lake.
The Taj Spa offers an Indian Royal Spa experience. The treatment suites are embellished with heritage frescos evocative of the sensuous and romantic Rajasthani Royal leitmotif. Signature Taj Spa experiences draw form from an ancient Indian technique of wellness and healing.

Client Testimonials
Barbara, Trekking Mt. Kilimanjaro
I can not tell you how smooth every thing has gone. We kept thinking how lucky we were to have found you. All around us we watched travelers frustrated confused and angry, while we just sailed through our travels. And it was all because of you. I will recommend you and Global Basecamps to any one I know that is planning a trip.
