Cultural Holidays
​The cultural heritage of India lives in the numerous archaeological monuments and the lifestyle of the people. Our Cultural Holidays are designed to let you explore the various facets of this ancient land. Choose any one or a combination of the below destinations and join us in an exploration of the spirit of India.
Karnataka Legacy
The Vijayanagara Empire today is a boulder strewn landscape where we find the remains of a scientifically and artistically advanced city. The monuments are jigsaws to life under the Raya Kings. History comes alive here.
​
A few kilometres away the Chalukya triangle of Badami, Aihole and Pattadakkal show us the evolution of rock cut cave and temple architecture. The legacy of these ancient kingdoms are carved into stones in such a way that we, today, draw inspiration from our ancestors' strength of mind and body.
Kutch
The landscape of Kutch commands a natural respect. The wild ass sanctuary, the seasonal salt desert, the remains of Indus valley civilisation and its enterprising people make for an insightful journey.
Pondicherry
This coastal town has been a peace haven for centuries. A variety of magnets have been attracting citizens of the world to its shores. We go to a Pondy beyond the French Quarter, where the fisher folk, traders potters, live.
Varanasi
To experience "a city older than history, older than tradition, older even than legend and looks twice as old as all of them put together"....Mark Twain's description of the Spiritual capital of India - Varanasi.
Kerala
Malayalis refer to their home state as “Ende Naadu”. The food habits, festivals, social activities and livelihood activities are a joy to experience. During our Kerala holiday, you understand those aspects of rural life
Odisha
There is a quiet grandeur in all the ancient temples and stupas that dot the Land of Kalinga. The stories that shaped these edifices makes one bow to the rich heritage of this region. A journey through Puri, Konark and Bhubaneshwar lets us savour the best of history, nature, local food and crafts of Odisha.
Rajasthan
The majestic forts narrate tales of Rajput valour and sacrifice. The arts, crafts and food of the rural folk speak volumes of their ability to coax the best out of this arid land. Travelling through Jaipur, Jodhpur and Udaipur, you experience royal and rural Rajasthan
Traditional Tamizhnadu
Ancient traditions are alive and active in Tamizhnadu. Travelling through the temple towns of Kumbakonam, Thanjavur and Madurai, we experience the grand temple architecture, rural agrarian life, thought-provoking ritualistic practices and warmth of local people.
