Our luxury itineraries focus on Princely Rajasthan and ‘God’s own country’, Kerala, as they’re the most common starting points for India holidays. But you needn't stop there. (In fact, we really recommend spreading your wings and venturing into other Princely States like Madhya Pradesh). Treat these as a springboard for your own bespoke adventure and give us a call so we can tweak, together.

With ETG immersive experiences and GiveBack activities, you’ll get under the skin of India: making connections with its people, admiring honeypot sites from alternative angles, and unique city tours most travellers can only dream of. Your consultant will sprinkle in a secret, too – personal to you – we believe the magic of travel lies in discovery.

Our great guides and drivers make travelling around this somewhat chaotic country a breeze (and great fun, too). With ETG, you’ll have a glorious and luxurious holiday.

THE FINEST LUXURY HOTELS IN INDIA THE FINEST LUXURY HOTELS IN INDIA

THE FINEST LUXURY HOTELS IN INDIA

It'll come as no surprise that many tourists want a good dose of palatial pampering in India.

While the country’s ‘iconic’ luxury hotels like The Taj Lake Palace and Oberoi hotels are undeniably fabulous, they’re also a bit obvious.

For ETG travellers craving more character, we’ve uncovered the most beautifully restored forts, elegant palaces, and charming lodges.

Luxurious hotels that feel atmospheric. With lovely locations on your doorstep. With staff – and families – who treat you like an old friend and welcome you into their way of life.

Better still, you’ll dodge the crowds of Western tourists and have the privilege of experiencing the 'real' India. This is luxury.

THE BEST LUXURY EXPERIENCES IN INDIA

ETG's exclusive experiences in India go far beyond regal palaces with chandeliers and champagne. You'll gain insider access and have many magical moments you wouldn't be able to plan yourself: from exploring an under-the-radar fort with a great storyteller-guide to having the opportunity to wander a hidden spice market in Kerala alongside a lovely local. Or a quiet boat ride down the Ganges at dusk as the air around you reverberates with chanting. The best travel experiences in India are thoughtful and immersive, staying with you long after the holiday glow fades away.
