Luxury safaris to Botswana, Kenya, Zambia, Namibia - African Explorations

Luxury India Tailored by Experts

A luxurious Indian holiday will dazzle you with its beauty and diversity. India offers a sensual overload of snowbound peaks, blistering deserts and stunning coastline, surrounding dramatic cities, remote villages and some of the most incredible architectural delights man has ever created. It is one of the most colourful and culturally diverse countries in the world. A kaleidoscope of language, religion, custom, cuisine, literature and art stretches across its states. Its glorious diversity extends to her people and their lifestyle, with each region generating a totally unique culture. At Indian Explorations, we have all come from India and have offices in England and India. We design beautiful, individually tailored (or bespoke) holidays and safaris to India – either completely off the beaten track or staying in opulent Rajasthani palaces, homestays, walking in the Himalayas, Sikkim or Ladakh with a private guide, seeing tigers on elephant back or by open vehicle, riding on horseback through Rajasthan or Assam or relaxing on a houseboat in Kerala. We don’t have packages as we treat our clients as individuals, designing each holiday around the interests and requirements of each of our clients. Call us now for your holiday of a lifetime!
