SPECIAL INTEREST PROGRAMS

We are able to put together special interest tours for your club, school or special interest group.  We currently have programs for Ayurveda, gardening, golf, business, textiles, fashion and yoga. We run escorted student tours for schools around India and Nepal.  A team leader who specialises in the particular area escorts all of our special interest tours.  Fifteen or more people travelling at the same time are given concessional rates on airfares, hotels and sightseeing tours. 

INDRAIL PASSES 

To experience India closely and inexpensively, travel by train.  Some ten million Indians travel by train every day.  Indian Railways have introduced concessional rail passes for overseas visitors called the Indrail Pass, similar to the Interailing pass available in Europe.  Holders of the pass are granted unlimited mileage on India’s 65 000 kms of railway track, and there are seven, 14 and 21 day passes available.  Train reservations for specific journeys can also be purchased for you, provided you supply details of your passport and an adequate booking time.  Rail passes can only be bought in US/AUS dollars.  Full payment is necessary for booking seat places, as bookings can be only be confirmed on receipt of full payment.

 AIR TRAVEL 

If you are in a hurry and cannot undertake a long rail journey, we recommend the following concessional air fares around India.  “Discover India” – A 21-day pass with unlimited economy class air travel.  A special bargain to travel the length and breath of the country by air.

“Wonderfare Pass” – A 7-day pass that offers unlimited economy class air travel within any one of the regional stations within India.  With a Wonderfare Pass you can cover 19 places in Western India, 12 places in South India, 17 places in eastern India or 21 places in Northern India.  Air passes can only be bought in US/AUS dollars.  Full payment is necessary for booking seat places, as bookings can be only be confirmed on receipt of full payment.

 CAR HIRE 

We are able to arrange car hire for individuals, small groups and large groups, for travel throughout India and Nepal.  Depending on your plans and requirements, we can provide anything from a small non-airconditioned car to travel around Rajasthan to a luxury charter bus for a large group to travel the length and breadth of the country.  Whatever transportation you decide on, the price is inclusive of all costs of travel, such as fuel, taxes and drivers’ expenses, so you can rest assured you will come across no hidden fees during your journey.  

HOTEL RESERVATIONS 

Hotel accommodation in India and Nepal ranges from top class five star palaces to inexpensive shoe-string class hotels.  We can advise you on accommodation throughout India and Nepal in any one of the luxury hotel chains such as Sheraton, Oberoi, Taj or Ashok, or we can arrange your stay in any good, clean, inexpensive hotel of your choice, anywhere in India.  This can be an advantage as hotels in India can often become heavily booked at any time of the year, depending on season and various religious festival dates.
