Everything was really memorable. From the wonderful accommodations to the
incredibly nice people and great guides. But I did come looking for a Tiger Safari
and got to see 11 of them over numerous sightings. So that’s gotta be the most
exciting part! (more)Rita Sussekind
The tour was incredible. Saurabh is so knowledgeable about every animal, bird, insect, flora and fauna. (more)Lise Thornton
Amazing animal sightings! We saw 11 tigers, two leopards and myriad of other creatures. Most memorably we saw a young tigress hunt and two cubs play fightings. I look back at my photos and can hardly believe I was really there. (more)Megan Rothney

Great trip, would recommend. The Taj Mahal and seeing a Tiger were the highlights, but other sites and wildlife were great as well. Also seeing real life India, particularly rural life, our Driver (Madan) was really informative and looked out for photo opportunities.

We really enjoyed traveling to both the North and South part of the country as it was great to experience very different lifestyles and cultures. Our favourite part of the trip was meeting the locals and getting to try all of the amazing foods that India has to offer, along with learnings the history behind each of the architectural masterpieces and cities we visited.
Tips?
It takes quite a lot of time to travel so book for at least 2 weeks and highly recommend ... (more)Perrin Raudabaugh

Interaction with the people in the villages as we cycled through, and when we stopped. You wouldn't experience the same if you were in a car or a bus, and if
you didn't travel on some of the smaller roads. I couldn't possibly choose one building or sight as a highlight, so many were amazing. The scenery at the waters at Jawai was something I'll remember for the rest of my life. (more)Richard Whiting

The tigers!!! They got so close and we saw several during our many safaris. The staff at the Kana Courtyard were wonderful. Oh and the food! (more)Richard Dean
The most memorable moment was staying at the lodge, in the buffer zone, listening to the night around a bonfire with wonderful snacks and a gin and tonic, then visiting the local villages on a walk the following day. The jungle safaris were amazing particularly the elephant back experience and of course seeing the tigers. (more)Julia Killick

India is a feast for the senses. Amazing colours, amazing scenery, I loved the
birds the people and the food. I saw many endemics and my guide Joji had
such good knowledge of the environment and could spot birds I did not have a hope of seeing. (more)Anne Romans
This was truly a trip of a lifetime, the number of ecosystems we ventured into, the variety of bird life and the healthy forests all added to a unique experience. The Western Ghats hosts incredible biodiversity. (more)Karen Bennett

The whole holiday was so interesting and we learnt so many new things and saw some wonderful wildlife. It was the perfect blend of sight seeing, rest time and the end few days spent at the beach in Varkala. (more)Adele Tungate

Arriving to the houseboat tour in a different location than Allepey was very nice. It was a quiet turn in the river where no other houseboats were visible for an entire day. It felt very special. (more)Kim Horrocks

Memorable parts?
Seeing a tiger in Ranthambore National Park.
Tips?
In January it can be quite cold in Northern India, bring some warm clothes.
The air and noise pollution can be a challenge at times.
Local benefits?
Regarding reducing the environmental impact, I’m not quite sure our holiday did,
unfortunately, since we opted to travel around by car and also flew. We employed quite a few people along the way and that hopefully was good for the local people.
