Exploring India

Wellbeing

The definition of wellbeing is ‘the state of being comfortable, healthy, or happy’. There are many ways to achieve this but it is often related to eating well, exercising and relaxing in an inspiring environment. India is the birth place of yoga and meditation, and along with having hotel properties that are based upon the concept of being eco-friendly, sustainable and organic, we truly believe it is the best destination for a trip focused on your health, happiness and all-round wellbeing. 

This may mean a trip staying in three different destinations where yoga and meditation classes will be scheduled into your programme, or perhaps a week in the Andaman Islands staying at the beautiful Jalakara, where no access to wi-fi or television provides an opportunity for a technology detox. Perhaps spa treatments are important for your wellbeing, and with Indian head massages in the north to Ayurvedic treatments in the south we can suggest suitable places to stay and enjoy. Alternatively we can organise an itinerary where you can experience meals cooked with local and organically grown produce, often sourced from the land surrounding the property you are staying in. 

With so much on offer in India, we have often found itineraries have little focus on these wellbeing elements.  This is something we would like to spend time researching and in time share with you so that we can bring a unique twist to your fantastic trip to this magical country. 

Please do enquire for any further information on wellbeing trips and we will have more exciting sample itineraries available to you in the near future!

A camel ride into the surrounding dunes for a night under the stars completes the magical experience. More
Udaipur
The romantic lake-side city of Udaipur has a more relaxed pace than other cities, so is the perfect last stop on any Rajasthan tours. The picturesque Lake Pichola, the iconic Lake Palace, seemingly floating in the water, and the stunning hillside as the backdrop create the perfect setting for a lazy evening, cold beverage in hand, watching the sunset. More
Mumbai
Vibrant and exciting, Mumbai is a city of extremes. The home of Bollywood and the rich and famous, it is also home to one of the largest slums in Asia, Dharavi. A tour around Mumbai highlights the iconic monuments and rich culture, and gives a wonderful opportunity to get under the skin of the city and gain an insight into local life. More
Goa
Beaches lined with colourful shacks, golden sands, tropical Palm Trees and a relaxed, bohemian vibe is what you can expect to find in Goa. Head to north Goa for more of a buzz, central Goa to explore the relaxed capital of Panjim, and the less built-up south for a little more seclusion and peace. More
Fort Cochin
Relaxed and historic Fort Cochin is a wonderful place to explore, enjoying the beautiful sights of the Chinese fishing nets, colourful fishing boats lining the shore, coconut stalls sitting under the dappled sunlight and, if you're lucky, the odd sighting of the river Dolphin. More
Munnar
Travel inland from Kerala's tropical coast and you discover the hill station of Munnar, nestled within lush green tea plantations and breathtaking scenery. Spend your time walking through the country side and enjoying the view, learning how tea is picked and processed and gaining an insight into the local way of life in the hills. More
Thekkady
Thekkady is the location of Periyar National Park, a must for wildlife enthusiasts visiting Kerala. Enjoy Jungle treks into the park and keep your eyes peeled for Sambar Deer, Giant Squirrels, Monkeys and Wild Boar amongst impressive bird life. More
The Backwaters

Marari Beach
The beautiful and peaceful Marari Beach is a wonderful way to end a trip in Kerala, relaxing on the vast golden sands and dipping your toes in the warm Arabian ocean.

The Andaman and Nicobar Islands
You can expect to find stunning white sand beaches, azure waters, world class diving and exotic jungle on these remote islands in the Bay of Bengal. It can be a little more of a challenge to reach the islands, but it is more than worth it for the secluded tropical hideaway that awaits. More
Wayanad
The alluring rainforest covered mountains of Wayanad are spectacular and a must for nature lovers. Home to coffee and spice plantations, it makes a wonderful scenic change from the exotic beaches and tranquil waterways found on the coast of northern Kerala. More

Varanasi
Located on the banks of the sacred River Ganges, Varanasi is one of Hinduism's seven holy cities. An incredibly spiritual, historic and culturally rich city, a visit to Varanasi never fails to be a memorable one.
