A RECENT TESTIMONIAL:
30 March 2010

A note to thank you for all you and your India office did to make our holiday such a success.
I went with high expectations which resulted from my keen interest in India and the era of the Raj. Our expectations were easily exceeded.
The guides, managers and particularly Devender who drove us and did so much to enhance the whole experience, were overall excellent.
It hard to come up with a complaint but even harder to come up with a stand out highlight although I must say how much we enjoyed the villages around Narlai, Shaphura and Delwara and Jodpur (great guide) as a city. The spoil was just that.
The local people are wonderful and it was an added bonus to meet with Maya and her charming family and with Durga Singh and his family who made us feel as if we were guest in a home rather in a “hotel”.
Thank you for all your planning which fitted in well and for your recommendations as to where to stay.
Since coming home I am doing a lot of reading – Kipling, Tod and a more recent work about the 18-21st centuries in India. I think I am a bit of a romantic in this regard and I think of India in the past as much as in the presence. The trip took me back in time and that was very special.

I can’t wait for a second round.
Kind regards,

Hugh Davies, Melbourne

Often in life we just wish to gather around us a few like-minded spirits and undertake a great and unique adventure. The following indicative itineraries are available to groups of at least 4 to 6 travellers. From the moment you land every small detail has been attended to, from excellent guides, to the best available accommodation and interaction with remote villages and adorable people.

Hidden Bhutan: The Last Himalayan Shangri-la

This once isolated Buddhist Kingdom is rapidly transitioning into the 21st C having recently anointed a new king as well as voting in its first democracy. Yet it remains a fascinating destination of immense natural beauty with soaring peaks and vast valleys, a culture where its architecture seamlessly combines the secular and the spiritual under one roof, with a people clinging to fabulous creativity and ancient traditions as they negotiate modernity.  This tour can offer any combination of trekking, great luxury, exuberant festivals, and idyllic remoteness….
The ideal times for travel to Bhutan are April/May and September/October. For More Information Go To>


Forbidden Himalayas May or September

In the northeast of Himachal Pradesh fringing the Tibetan plateau lie ancient tributaries to the Silk Route that were until recently almost inaccessible to even the most tenacious of travelers. Today the mystique of the Kinnaur and Spiti Valleys can be visited in a combination of jeep safaris and gentle trekking with possible extensions to Leh and Ladakh. These legendary routes chronicle a fascinating blend of Buddhism and Hinduism as well as startlingly diverse landscapes from thick pine forests and fruit orchards, to snow clad peaks and moonscapes with lakes and monasteries.

Indian Wildlife Discoveries

With an uncle a founding member of Project Tiger in 1973, my Indian Director is not only passionate about Indian wildlife but has developed an extensive network of the most highly trained and experienced naturalists to provide wonderful interpretative experiences. Moreover, the luxury Taj hotel group have teamed up with CC Africa expertise to now provide four luxurious game lodges with Mahua Kothi in Bandhavgarh being India’s first Relais et Chateaux property and their Pench and Panna properties stealing multiple awards from travel and design magazines this year. Search the elusive snow leopard or view the endangered Bengal tiger from the back of an elephant.
