This trip is for those who want to see the a huge area of Northern India on a trip that caters for adults and children alike. It is a wonderful opportunity to introduce your children to India's extreme cultural diversity, and to gain greater insight into this chaotic, colourful, soulful, developing part of the world.
Our India Family Adventure leaders have a wealth of knowledge about the country and will give travellers a fantastic introduction to this fascinating place. All travellers are encouraged to learn about and show respect for cultural differences. Small groups assist this process and allow for greater interaction with local people. In true style we use some local transport to enable travellers to experience cultures at first hand, offering greater opportunity for cross-cultural understanding.
Travellers are each given a "Responsible Travel" bag of information including trip specific guidelines for minimising impact, a language sheet, general information on responsible travel issues in India and information on worthwhile projects that we support in India. The bags are made by members of Karm Marg, a movement for street children and young adults in Delhi.
In the Rajasthan desert travellers participate in an overnight camel safari, a great opportunity to learn about these unique creatures and the people who work closely with them. In Sanganer we support a variety of local industries, including paper making, pottery and block printing. We may also be able to visit the Help in Suffering shelter for animals.
Travelling out to Ranthambhore National Park is an opportunity for travellers to support one of the original Project Tiger Parks, and to appreciate some of what is left of natural India. At the end of the journey travellers may donate any unwanted clothing, medicine and bandages, which are distributed to appropriate local charities.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
