do you offer tours for solo tavellers for a single room with washroom having no single supplement or room sahring

Yes, a single supplement is available if you'd prefer not to share a room. Please note that this excludes Day 5 (Mudumalai National Park) and Day 7 (overnight train), where accommodation will be shared. The single supplement is also subject to availability.

I'm interested in your India South & North tour. What is the total cost for a solo traveller inclusive of single room supplement. Travelling March 2026.

We are happy to provide you with a full quote, including the single room supplement. To do that, we kindly ask you to place a spot hold on your preferred departure date in March 2026 and fill in your traveler details. Once that's done, we can send you the exact pricing for a solo traveler.

how to apply Visa to India

An E-Tourist Visa (eVT) visa on arrival is available for select nationalities including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Germany, UK & USA. Passport holders from these countries can apply for an eVT to have their visa issued upon arrival at 16 major airports in India. E-Tourist Visas are available for entry of up to 90 days. For residents of the USA, UK, Canada, and Japan e-Tourist Visas are available for up to 180 days. If you plan to be in India longer you will need to apply for a tourist visa at an Indian visa application centre in your home country.

Is there an additional cost for travelling solo?

This price is based on a twin shared accommodation whereby you will be roomed with someone of the same sex. You can choose to upgrade to a single room for an additional cost. Please contact us to arrange this.

Is there a required type of luggage for this tour?

What you need to bring will vary according to the trip style you have chosen, the countries you are visiting and when you are travelling. Generally speaking you should pack as lightly as possible. On the vast majority of the trips you are expected to carry your own luggage, although you won't be required to walk long distances with it (max 30 minutes). Most travellers carry their luggage in a backpack, although an overnight bag with a shoulder strap would suffice if you travel lightly. Smaller bags or backpacks with wheels are convenient although it is recommended that your bag has carry straps. You'll also need a day pack/bag to carry water and a camera etc. for day trips.

The south was excellent, our guide Chandra Bose is very knowledgeable about his country, its history, and its traditions. He was extremely caring for each member, we felt safe at all times, he attended to all of us in all ways at every point on the tour. We felt we had a thorough knowledge of the South of India. The local guides were, also, very well informed and shared their knowledge with us The North was a different story with its highs and lows. We felt our guide was mediocre at best. The northern guide seemed bored, reluctantly answered questions, showed no enthusiasm, bordered on being rude, he comes across as aloof and arrogant.. Ignored the needs and necessary caring of the group members, insulting them by calling us CHILDREN! The guides in Bundi and Jaipur were very poor. They were not knowledgeable (the observatory guide said we should buy the book if we wanted to know anything!!) and we actually had to listen to guides from other tour companies to get an explanation. They rushed us through (actualy running in certain areas)! The city walking tours were useless, being rushed through and not able to enjoy the sights. Show more
