India Tours in Summer

My first high-altitude hike - the Nubra Valley trek - and all I can say is WOW! With Valerie Parkinson as our tour leader, we were set up for an unforgettable adventure from day one. The incredible cook, knowledgeable guides, and fantastic camp crew made every moment a joy. If you’re thinking of exploring the Nubra Valley, you simply can’t go wrong with this trip. The only challenge now? Deciding on my next adventure!

The tour was perfectly organised, in a fairly short time you can see a very large number of sights. It was a surprise to me that this was actually an individual tour. For that price, this format is miracle, at the same time, all the guides are russian speaking, which was also pleasent.

Everything is organised perfectly, the driver took us a week through cities in india, coordinated us and our guides in each, showed us places where you can eat delicious food, abhinav is the best person and very loving and caring take all my request and helped me find Tea for my family.

I visited India in March 2025 to see its beauty for the first time in my life and I was deeply impressed as i saw a lot of colours, nice people and cultural sites starting from the very first day of the trip. I saw a lot of unique places, made a thousand of photos and hot soo much impressions that I still can't realise all of them.

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.

This trip is not for the faint hearted! The majority in my group were 'returners' to India and for me this was my third visit. Having visited various parts of India before was helpful in recognising the difference India's Little Tibet offers to the rest of India, geologically, culturally, socially and in its cuisine. The high altitudes were at times a little challenging for some but the reasonably slow acclimatisation to increased height was very helpful as we ascended the high mountain passes. Having never visited the Himalayas before or indeed many parts of the world higher than Snowdon (!), I found the scenery breath taking. The skill of our drivers in negotiating what must, at times, have been challenging roads to drive was exemplary. I always felt safe even in the presence of mountain rubble on the road side.
