India Art architecture Trips

Booking process was simple online. Response was very quick. I was happy with the small group size. The Tour Leader was excellent. The hotels were good, although not close to the centre or any interesting areas. The itinerary was well chosen, and wasn't too frantic.

I especially loved the accommodation in Jaipur which was like staying at the Exotic Marigold - it was a dream come true in its decor, lovely staff and my room was resplendent with stained glass windows and even an internal room with a writing desk . I must write a novel about OUR trip !!!

Fantastic trip, great guide and driver. I would travel with explore again. very easy to speak to customer service about queries. A great tour does more than simply lead the way — they bring places to life, turn history into stories, and transform ordinary moments into unforgettable experiences.

Our first family Explore holiday and we loved it. India is such an interesting and vibrant country. The pace was pretty full-on and we packed in so much due to all the fantastic organisation by our guide Harsh who was knowledgeable, flexible and professional. The group dynamics were great and the kids had a brilliant time. There was some lovely characterful accommodation (the national park, fort & Jaipur) and generally we found the hotels good. The food was always delicious! There are long bus journeys involved. The tour of New Delhi wasn’t that enjoyable due all the time spent in Delhi traffic, and the last day’s bus journey was epic. Other than that, I highly recommend this trip.

A really enjoyable experience made all the better by an excellent tour leader. Harsh took the time to get to know the group and applied a bit of flexibility when it was needed. There were four families on the tour and all got on which helped with keeping spirits up when stuck in a traffic jam or two!!

We had an absolutely fantastic time. Thank you so much to Raj and the team. The whole trip was extremely well organised. Raj gave us a fantastic Indian experience. He has a wealth of knowledge and puts the clients needs first. We were very grateful for all his efforts. It is a full on tour so a level of stamina is required to get the most out of it. As well as the obvious highlights of the Taj Mahal, palaces and forts, it’s the extras that make the trip- a visit to a step well, dressing in Indian costumes, well picked restaurants by Raj and a visit to Raj Mandir in Jaipur to watch a Bollywood movie! It was an incredible rewarding trip. Raj handled any difficulties well. He is a lovely man! We were slightly apprehensive before travelling about how the group dynamic would work but we were lucky and thoroughly enjoyed everyone’s company. There were 13 like-minded people in our group ranging in ages from 20- late 60s but age didn’t matter. We would thoroughly recommend this trip and Explore!
