A sub-continent with a thousand faces
From the golden palaces of Rajasthan to the tropical backwaters of Kerala, India unfolds an unparalleled sensory palette. Here, the scent of spices blends with temple chants, while the vibrant colors of saris contrast with the immaculate whiteness of the Taj Mahal. Each region reveals its own identity: the red sandstone forts of Delhi, the sacred ghats of Varanasi where flames of offerings float, the lush tea plantations of the Darjeeling hills.
This geographical and cultural diversity calls for a personalized approach. A tailor-made journey allows you to experience this vast territory through authentic encounters and experiences adapted to your pace, far from standardized tours.
What must you see in India?
The Golden Triangle is an ideal introduction with Delhi, its Mughal tombs and bustling bazaars, Agra where the Taj Mahal stands, a masterpiece of white marble, and Jaipur, the pink city with sumptuous palaces. Rajasthan then reveals the country's princely soul with Udaipur and its floating palaces, Jodhpur the blue city dominated by its impregnable fort. In the south, Kerala offers a tropical contrast with its lagoons dotted with coconut trees and stilt houses, while Goa seduces with its golden beaches lined with palm trees.
What type of trip should you choose?
India is ideally discovered in 15 to 21 days to capture its richness without rushing. Budgets range from 2,000 € for a classic itinerary to over 4,000 € for premium experiences with palace hotels and specialized guides. This trip suits curious travelers ready to embrace an exotic culture, couples seeking authenticity and families with children over 12 years old. The support of an English-speaking local agent proves invaluable for navigating this cultural and linguistic complexity.

Authentic travel stories from travelers who trusted our local agency.
« Good program, excellent guide/driver team, great responsiveness from the local team. The staff was very pleasant everywhere. Still a lot of work to be done in Orissa to improve accommodations from my European perspective—of course. Guide and drivers were excellent, really excellent, and the escorts too. »
