There were many highlights, but the most vivid memory is of arriving at the Spice Plantation after a tough ride up the mountains through monsoon rain.
(more)The whole trip was unforgettable - especially loved the rural parts we visited and stayed in and the various transport and accommodation - much fun and very unique! Every day waking up was like Christmas morning, so exciting. (more)I really enjoyed the whole trip and cannot wait to travel with this operator again - I have no hesitation in recommending them.
(more)Bhopal Singh is undoubtedly the best guide I have had on trips to India. He actually knows the history as well as the culture, habits, etc...Excellent.

The most memorable part of the trip - it's a cliché but, all the pictures in the world do not prepare you for actually being at the Taj Mahal. Most exciting part - rickshaw ride through Jaipur! and white water rafting on the Ganges. (more)From simply sitting on a sand bank on the side of Ganges watching the birdlife after enjoying a sumptuous meal prepared by a local man with nothing more than the ingredients and utensils that he had on his boat to dressing up and being treated like Kings in the Maharajas palace it was just all fantastic.

Excellent... Cycling down the Ooty Hill, the views were breathtaking, as well as visiting the orphanage.
(more)The most memorable parts were the variety of the cities and sites, the vibrant colours and sounds mixed with the dirt and poverty, the kindness of the people. The Taj Mahal was so beautiful and seeing tigers was memorable. (more)
The diversity in this two week training camp was really something. From Kayaking in +30c to staying in a tent with -4c. And the intensity of the cycling. 100 km up and down. But then always guides with loads of bananas, beer and kindness. (more)Seeing 3 tigers & a leopard at Ranthambore National Park was the most memorable part of the holiday...Fantastic. (more)
Superb. Special thanks to our guide Junaid. He was wonderful from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble and the organisation was seamless. (more)10/ 10 and I have written a separate letter posted this morning to yourselves in praise of the local tour guide, Tony Gomez, who made the holiday most memorable for the whole party of 16. (more)Seeing was believing when it came to the Taj Mahal, not many places live up to be better than you anticipate as this place did. My wife and I have done some travelling, but this has to be the most impressive building we have ever witnessed. (more)We enjoyed our time in India, we appreciate the effort that your company put into the organisation of the holiday, we thought your tour leader was excellent. (more)The highlight was staying with a family. Pack light as you do have to carry your bags around and you WILL shop!! (more)Unforgettable - a fantastic introduction to India with an incredible variety of experiences packed into a fortnight. Excellent guide and very well though out itinerary. (more)
This is a fantastic way to be given a taste of what a wide area of the south of India has to offer, and helps highlight places to which a return is required! (more)I thoroughly enjoyed it and was lucky with the group too. Good itinerary. It was so nice to be away from the vast hoards of tourists and experience real Morocco, but Marrakech was fantastic too...

This was a trip of a lifetime for me as I had wanted to visit this area for a long time. The holiday surpassed all expectations by far!

For solo travellers or family adventurers, small group holidays are an excellent way to see any country. We sent Jerrine, one of our helpdesk experts, on a group adventure in India to see first hand what a group holiday is all about. "Having always travelled independently on my globe trekking adventures I was curious to see how a small group adventure would compare. India has always been high on my must-do places to visit so I was delighted to take up the challenge. Here´s a little bit about my adventures and what a small group holiday is really like...
Always happy when the flight is over, but usually apprehensive about tackling the language barriers and over-zealous taxi drivers I was more than happy to be greeted with a smile by an Exodus representative. I was soon whisked off to the hotel where I met what was to be my new family for the next 8 days. . Read more about Jerrine's adventure in India in this India article.
