| TAILOR MADE |
| This portfolio of journeys represents our recommendations for some of the best ways to explore and experience the Indian Subcontinent. Each Itinerary has been designed to provide you with a memorable and enjoyable experience. |
| All of the holidays can be modified to suit your personal needs, and we can also create something unique especially for you. |
| SPECIALISTS |
| We feel that our enthusiasm for what we do is reflected in the tours that we run. We have many years of experience travelling in India and the Subcontinent, and our specialists have a wealth of knowledge to share with you in creating your dream holiday. |
| ALWAYS AVAILABLE FOR YOU |
| Wherever you travel with us, our local representatives will always be available to look after your needs. For the times when they are not with you, they will always be contactable by phone. As owners of the business, we also pride ourselves on being available for you, and we can normally be contacted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, wherever we are in the world. |
| NO CANCELLATIONS |
| Our group tours do not have a minimum number requirement, so once confirmed a group tour will not be cancelled due to under booking. |
| A RELAXING PACE |
| We have planned our itineraries so that you get to spend the right amount of time in each of the places that you visit. In particular, our wildlife holidays will make sure that you stay in a location for sufficient time to make sure that you have the best chance of finding your subject. |
| We don’t enjoy rushing around, and understand that our clients feel the same way. The content and pace of our holidays are planned so that you don’t need a holiday when you get home. On arrival, your first night will always be in a hotel. |
| CAREFULLY SELECTED ACCOMMODATION |
| All of the accommodation that we use are appropriate to the surroundings and selected to enhance your experience. As well as five star accommodations in the cities, luxury tents, rice barges and home stays may be included in your holiday. |
| We try to give you a choice of category so that you can find a category appropriate to your personal tastes. Whatever the category, the best attention is always paid to quality, cleanliness and food. |
| VEHICLES |
| The vehicles that we use for sightseeing and transfers are always appropriate to the surroundings. For most journeys this will be a private air-conditioned Toyota Innova. Where required a four wheel drive vehicle will be used for your comfort and safety. |
| A small number of transfers in the major cities will be by air-conditioned coach, where all members of a group need to travel together. |
| PRIVATE JEEPS ON SAFARI |
| Unlike many other operators, wherever possible we use private vehicles for game drives. There will only be a maximum of two clients per jeep, including our group tours. We feel that this is essential to give you the space to enjoy the experience, and for the photographers among you to carry their kit and get their shots. |
|
|
| YOUR GUIDES |
| Where required, your sightseeing visits will be accompanied by your own English speaking guide. They will have the knowledge required to provide you with an in-depth explanation of the history and local customs for each area and monument. |
| YOUR NATURALISTS |
| We only use experienced English speaking naturalists to ensure that you have the best experiences on your encounters with the subcontinent’s amazing wildlife. |
| CURRENT KNOWLEDGE |
| We continue to travel around the region, checking the places that our clients visit, and making sure that we are in possession of up to date information and the latest ideas. We make sure that we understand the culture and customs of the areas that you visit. |
| Before you travel, you will be provided with detailed briefing information so that you arrive at your destination knowing what to expect, avoiding the pitfalls that often befall travellers. |
| WHEN TO GO |
| For central and southern India, mid October to April is the best time to visit, though some of the places can be very rewarding in May and June if you can stand the heat. |
| For Rajasthan and northern India, October to April is the best time to visit, although fog can often be a problem in Delhi and Agra during January and February. |
| March to November is the best time to visit the Himalayas and the foothills, though the cooler months of December to February can offer clearer views of the Himalayas. |
| Many national parks close between July and October, and some of the monuments that are included in our itineraries are closed on specific days of the week. Festivals such as Diwali and Holi are important national celebrations. Each of our itineraries list departure dates to make sure that everything is open when you arrive. |
| Sri Lanka is best visited from October to March. For Nepal and Bhutan, spring and autumn are recommended, with autumn giving clear views of the Himalayas. December to February can be very cold. |
| There is a large seasonal variation in both temperature and rainfall. Our Travelstuff section gives detailed climate information to help you choose when to go. If you want to avoid the heat and the monsoon, we will be happy to advise you on the best time to visit. |
| AIRLINES |
| All of our tours exclude flights, leaving you free to fly with your favourite airlines and use your accumulated air miles. This also means that you can join each tour from anywhere in the world. |
| Flights listed within the itineraries are easily available from online agents. We will be happy to advise you about booking. |
| YOUR FINANCIAL PROTECTION |
| We are not ATOL members as we do not sell flights. If you pay the deposit by credit card, your holiday is fully protected since the card issuer is also liable to you for the full cost of the holiday. This is so even if you pay the balance by cheque or some means other than that card. |
| This protection is given by law under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. |
