New Delhi, India.

                          TOUR TERMS INQUIRY

I, Varsha Malhotra, the head girl at the school mentioned above, am reaching out to request information regarding the terms for an upcoming tour. Our history instructor is arranging a trip for us to explore historical landmarks in Agra, Jaipur, and Chandigarh.

In light of this arrangement, I seek details about the conditions applicable to the tour to help us with our preparations. What would the cost be to transport 60 students to these destinations using your deluxe bus service? I would also like to know about the trip's fare, lodging options, and rates per night for each student.

Moreover, we are interested in understanding the total duration of the trip and the available payment methods. Can we pay in cash, or do you accept checks?

Thank you, and I anticipate your prompt response to my inquiries.

Best regards,

Varsha Malhotra.
