India Festivals and Events Tours 2024/2025

“This was a fast paced trip but we knew that when we booked and it enabled us to see so much of India in a short time . I can't quite believe what we managed to cover! We started at Jaiper were we came across a bridegroom on an elephant and sadly had to turn down an invitation to join in the wedding! From there we moved to Ranthambore National Park were we saw not only a tiger but a leopard ! I don't think many people are lucky enough to see both .We saw the iconic Taj , travelled on overnight sleeper trains (The station at Agra was an experience, we seemed to give the locals something to watch!) There are long distances between the cities but travelling in the minibus was actually wonderful with always something to see. The colours of the saris will be my lasting memory of the trip. Our group size was 12 and they were a totally delightful group of people who all got on really well.”

“An incredible 2 week journey. People can describe India and Nepal until the sun goes down but you have to experience it to truly appreciate what they say. There are some early starts and long bus journeys but they are definitely worth it. The buses are quite comfortable (the roads aren't - but there's not much you can do about that!!) and the travel times flew by. The scenery outside was enough to while the time away. If not, sit at the front of the bus and watch what the driver has to deal with on the road - hilarious and slightly scary at the same time.

I would go again just to do the overnight train - an experience in itself !!”

“From the majestic Mughal forts and palaces to the profound spirituality of Varanasi with the exquisite Taj Mahal and a fantastic tiger sighting in between, this full -on tour was a feast for the senses from start to finish and provided the perfect introduction to Northern India for me.”
