Mahabalipuram Holidays

India

Wild Karnataka and Beach

This exciting off-the-beaten-track trip takes you on a journey through Karnataka, visiting Mysuru and Hampi – both with their own world heritage sites – and then getting away from it all at two beautiful boutique hotels in the plantations of Coorg and Chikmagalur.

Nagarhole National Park offers plenty of opportunity for wildlife experiences, and the adventure closes with some relaxation at the beach in Goa.

Uniquely, this holiday is designed using alternatives to domestic flights. This makes for a fantastic way to absorb the country’s atmosphere and scenery in a way that many visitors miss out on.

India

Varied Landscapes of South India

Stray from the typical South India tourist trail and immerse yourself in an array of landscapes and local experiences as you travel west on this two-week journey.

You’ll begin in the fascinating city of Hyderabad and end in India’s largest, most cosmopolitan city, Mumbai. With local guides in each place, you’ll delve into the different cultures of each area and experience an array of landscapes with time to relax in a variety of luxurious accommodation. After exploring the outskirts of Hyderabad, fly direct to the boulder-strewn horizons of Hampi, spend time in lush spice plantations and the rugged Western Ghats before relaxing on the beaches of quiet Nileshwar.

India

In-depth Tamil Nadu

On this two-week privately guided holiday you’ll experience the southern state of Tamil Nadu only with its deep-rooted religious beliefs, incredible temple sites, remote plantations and the coastal regions of Pondicherry and Mahabalipuram.

You’ll move every couple of nights and travel by train, plane and your private car; we designed this trip for more active travellers who likes to keep the holiday varied, but balanced. Three days towards the end will give you some downtime on the beach.

India

Kerala Encompassed

Gain a great insight into the variety Kerala has to offer as you travel south to north over three weeks. You’ll have the opportunity to stay in different types and styles of accommodation, ranging from tea bungalows to a plantation mansion, houseboat, treehouse and tents, to name a few.

Spend your days among tea and spice plantations, relaxing in rural settings, spotting wildlife, cruising along the Alleppey backwaters, visiting local markets and getting to know the towns that make Kerala tick. Relax on a remote beach to round off your holiday through ‘God’s Own Country’.

Birds of South India

Discover lesser-visited but beautiful areas of Southern India during this two week holiday. There is a particular focus on the region’s abundant birdlife, exceptional for casual and serious aficionados.
