Why travel with us ?
Our team has made frequent trips to North India as each state boasts its own unique culture, reflected in its monuments, temples, cuisine, festivals and traditions. We have developed itineraries focuses on most of these states, such as our Rajasthan Explorer trip which takes in astounding forts and palaces and bustling camel fairs. Gujarat in northwest India bizarrely sees very few tourists which means you will get ancient stepwells and temples, salt flats and sightings of the world's last Asiatic lions mostly to yourself.ÂRecognising that most of India is off limits in the summer due to the fierce heat and the monsoon, we have set up our Hill stations to the Himalayas tour which takes you on an incredible road trip through sacred towns and villages in the Himalayan foothills, via the Golden Temple in Amritsar finishing in the remote Buddhist kingdom of Ladakh. Like our Kashmir & Ladakh Explorer tour this tour is perfect in summer.
We also encourage you to discover more of its cities by foot on our specialist walking tours which we offer in most major cities, including Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Varanasi and Lucknow to name just a few. Our city pre- and post-tour extensions are very popular and well worth the extra few days.
