What ever you want from your dream trip, our team of
experts are ready to help.
Where to begin? Mumbai, famous for its Bollywood productions, and the iconic Taj Mahal Hotel; the former British capital of Calcutta, which still retains its old-world charm; and Delhi, the effervescent capital. The Portuguese influences of Fontainhas in the former capital of Goa, and the Dutch influences of Cochin’s old fort area, abound with stories a world away from the brilliantly painted, towering temples of Tamil Nadu. Yet, is any city as historic as Varanasi? It is the oldest living city in the world, whose very existence is about death.
Of course, not to be missed are the forts and palaces of Rajasthan and its most Iconic and romantic monument of them all, the Taj Mahal. Contrast these eclectic cities with beautiful rural villages, where you can venture out and see life, almost untouched by time, witness ancient practices, and fabulous arts and crafts, and meet the locals for whom “Guest is God.”
Explore the iconic Taj Mahal in Agra, the vibrant streets of Delhi, the spiritual Varanasi, majestic Jaipur’s palaces, and the serene backwaters of Kerala. Discover cultural treasures in Mumbai, ancient history in Hampi, and pristine landscapes in Himachal Pradesh.

Majestic forts, royal palaces, epic landscapes…Rajasthan is India’s most classic trip. Riches, royalty, and fascinating stories emerge, and the romance of this bygone era is brought to life once more.
Kerala boasts palm-fringed beaches stretching along its entire coast, backed by lush backwaters that give way to soaring, emerald tea hills. This is languid tropical beauty at its best.
The parks of central India, Bandhavgarh, Kanha, Pench, Panna, and Satpura, were made famous by Rudyard Kipling and today remain the beating heart of Central India’s extraordinary wildlife.
Venturing beyond the Golden Triangle, discover ancient cities rich in color and culture, from timeless Varanasi to eclectic Calcutta. The Himalayas soar further north, offering hikes, hill stations, and jaw-dropping views.
The sultry south of India is less visited but equally beautiful, offering the same blend of culture, scenery, and wildlife, but at a much slower pace, well off the established tourist paths.
India ranges from tropical beaches through deserts and jungles to the dizzy heights of the Himalayas. There are five climatic regions: equatorial, humid subtropical, savanna, mountain, and desert. Added to these are the main seasons of winter, summer, and monsoon, so it stands to reason that many different weather patterns also ensure that India is a year-round destination.
For classic itineraries, we recommend October through to April, but speak to your consultant for advice on how to plan the best possible adventure year-round.
India is a land of contrasts, where ancient traditions and modern innovations coexist in vibrant harmony. From the bustling cities of Delhi and Mumbai to the serene beauty of the Himalayan foothills and the tranquil backwaters of Kerala, India has something for everyone.
India offers enchanting river cruises along the Ganges, Brahmaputra, and Kerala’s backwaters. Explore Varanasi’s spiritual shores, witness wildlife along the Brahmaputra, or drift through Kerala’s lush network of canals. These cruises promise a unique perspective of India’s landscapes, culture, and vibrant riverine communities.
India’s rich biodiversity is like nowhere else on Earth. From Bengal tigers prowling in dense forests to graceful elephants ambling in national parks, it’s a sanctuary for diverse species. Royal Bengal tigers, Indian rhinoceros, Asiatic lions, and vibrant birdlife make India a treasure trove for nature enthusiasts and wildlife lovers.
Dining in India is a symphony of flavors, colors, and aromas. From aromatic curries to tangy street food, it’s a diverse culinary journey. Fragrant spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric dance in dishes. Naan, biryani, dosas, and samosas are just a taste of India’s rich gastronomic tapestry.
