Incredible Indian Tours

Rajasthan, India

Since 2006, we have been operating small group tours, aiming to provide a unique and personalised experience, offering a more local touch, yet from a western perspective. Our Incredible group tours now cover India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, and Burma. Some of our tours are for women only, however most trips are for mixed groups. We take only very small groups - minimum four and maximum just ten as we feel that the smaller the group, the more personalised trip you can have. With our small numbers, we can take local transportation in cities and towns for that real immersion experience, and we can fit comfortably in a small local restaurant without overwhelming the chef.
