Hello

I have been looking for a while for new itineraries into India that do not traverse the standard tourist routes, but still embrace authentic and unmissable sites and experiences. The first is based on our Hidden and Wild India itinerary we ran last year and the second comes from Margaret's ideas as to what she thought would be a really interesting trip. I really like what we have come up with!

We have two new small group tours into India in 2025 and Margaret Freebairn will be hosting both of them.

The first starts on the 18th January:

Jungle Trails: India's Wildlife and Big Cat Adventure.

This 15 day trip is only A$12,645 per person sharing.

Venture into the wild heart of Gir National Park, the last stronghold of the magnificent Asiatic lion.

Lose yourself in the enchanting landscapes of Pench National Park, the real-life inspiration for Rudyard Kipling’s “The Jungle Book”, home to tigers, leopards, and diverse bird species.

Continue your wild journey to Kanha and Bandhavgarh National Parks, renowned for Bengal tigers and extraordinary biodiversity.

If you have the time, you can then wait in Delhi a couple of days and join Margaret again on the second trip:

Palatial Pathways: The Havelis and Highlights of Rajasthan

This 19 day trip is only AU$10,945 per person sharing.

This luxury small group tour will explore the exquisite havelis: grand mansions known for their intricate frescoes and ornate architecture, reflecting the opulence of Rajasthan’s merchant class.

Discover historical sites, romantic palaces, and majestic forts.

Wander through bustling markets, experience the unique Dabbawala system, and enjoy village safaris and tribal tours.
