Last Minute India Tours and Trip Deals

The thought of a week in India was a little daunting but Explore had a great itinerary that was superbly organised. Great hotels, knowledgeable local guides, a very safe bus driver and most of all a fantastic leader, Neha, gave me and my daughter an experience that will stay with us forever. The tour was an absolute bargain taking in the main sights of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur together with some less known attractions along the way. Highly recommended, will definitely be going back, hopefully for a bit longer.

An amazing trip that kept on delivering. As previously said in other reviews, full on with some long days but rewarded with great locations and experiences. We were in a group of six with our excellent guide Anil who can fix/sort anything. So many highlights, impossible to list them all but the wildlife and sailing down the Ganges were superb. Camp food on the Ganges was some of the best we had. If you are thinking of this trip just do it. You won't moan about potholes after driving in Nepal.

The rail trip across north India with Explore was undoubtedly a magical and once in a lifetime experience. The itinerary was jam packed and whilst exhausting with early starts and long rail journeys, it ensured we made the most of the 14 days . The accommodation was varied, sometimes underwhelming but on the whole acceptable. For the price we paid, Explore could make improvements, as It’s so cheap in India . Amritsar was my highlight, the golden temple and the border crossing was a glorious end to an incredible adventure. Extend your stay here if possible , we had an extra day and loved wandering around, exploring the winding streets close by the temple.

Our guide, Pradeep, was fantastic and really made the trip as he was so knowledgeable. Everything ran seamlessly from start to finish and we really got a feel for the local area as well as tourist bucket list moments!

Fabulous holiday, action packed but with comfort in mind. There were 10 of us travelling in a spacious air conditioned bus and a great leader, Anil who knew everything about Indian history, food, culture, architecture. The views were amazing and every day we were astonished at the workmanship of the buildings in front of us. Thanks to Anil we were kept up to date with everything to do with the history of the buildings. I would fully recommend this trip to anyone wanting to see such iconic buildings and a taste of true India.

Aníl was a fantastic tour leader with great organisational skills meaning everything was seamless. The hotels were all above my Explore expectations and the transport and driver were first class. Anil took us to great restaurants and we ate amazing food. The sites we visited were just as amazing as when l did the same Explore tour 16 years ago. Great group also added to the enjoyment of the trip.
