The Adventure Collection features itineraries but
these are our just suggestions to inspire you
and give you an idea of what we can offer. We
have years of experience in creating Bespoke
Adventures — each adventure can be tailor-
made for you, to experience the destinations
and activities to suit your individual preference.
Choose from exciting journeys — zorbing,

horse safaris, trekking, mountaineering,
kayaking, and other adventures.

A unique feature of our trips is the in-depth
experience that we offer. It is not about just
passing through or pausing at a destination.
India is a land of extraordinary diversity, and all
her contradictions, sights and sounds are in our
soul. Our love and pride inspires us to ensure
that our Adventure Collection programmes offer
initiated travellers and first-timers the
opportunity to immerse themselves in the
stunning variety that is the real India. Getting to
know the people and the culture is a
refreshingly different experience: A simple chat
with a teashop owner in Narlai; or an invitation
to tea at the home of a middle-class family in
Kumarakom over a chat about how the state of
Kerala achieved 100 per cent literacy.
Whether you choose an easy-going
pace or an exciting journey packed with
new challenges, we offer you an
environment that matches your needs
and offers you all the modern day
comforts.

Our travel planners have spent over twelve years
journeying throughout India and our neighbouring
countries in search of very special places to stay.
Their discoveries are often of lesser-known
accommodations, and these too are part of our
adventures.
There is a vast choice but each is carefully chosen for
its great hospitality and because it has its own story
to tell. Family-run havelis, once the homes of
noblemen or wealthy merchants, have been restored
to their former glory and renovated to offer modern
comforts and amenities. As have forts and
palaces that are steeped in and reflect
the history and culture of the
region. At some places we offer
our own modern tented
accommodation.
For us deluxe is not always a five-
star property. Whatever the type of
accommodation, our selection is based on a
combination of top quality, great hospitality, and
places that have a story to tell. We suggest properties
that will make you feel pampered, spark your
curiosity and ignite your imagination. Yet another
opportunity to embrace the spirit of adventure!
