Super toll! Mayuresh Kalkurni von EuroGlobal ist ein sehr engagierter und zuverlässiger Reiseleiter. Er spricht sehr gut Deutsch und war eine große Hilfe bei der Vorbereitung unseres Schüleraustausches mit Pune! Vielen Dank an Mayuresh und seine Mitarbeiter!

EuroGlobal organized a student exchange between our school in Germany and Fergusson College in Pune, India. All arrangements, all bookings, and the entire organization were perfect. From the pick-up in Mumbai to the farewell at the airport in Mumbai, we were perfectly looked after. The organizer was always available. Our exchange was a huge success. Thank you, EuroGlobal!
