For women

India, on your own terms.

Private trips across India for women travelling alone or together: the same houses, the same access, and arrangements that are exact where they need to be.

Travelling as a woman asks extra questions of a place. We answer them before they are asked.

The arrangements

Drivers of long standing: the same names, trip after trip, known to us for years.

Female guides on request, in every city on the route, arranged before you land.

Rooms placed deliberately: position considered as carefully as the view.

One contact reachable through the whole trip, at any hour, who already knows your file.

Pacing set by the group: the itinerary bends to you, never the reverse.

What opens up

01

The printing tables

The workshops of women artisans, where the craft passes from mother to daughter.

Carved teak printing blocks laid out in a workshop

Bagru's carved teak blocks

02

The zenana courts

The women's own quarters of the palaces, read by a woman who knows what they were for.

The latticed windows of the Hawa Mahal, built for seeing without being seen

Hawa Mahal, built to see unseen

03

A family stove

Home kitchens that open for guests, with the household's matriarch cooking beside you.

Spices ground the old way

04

Rooms that stay themselves

There are rooms a male guide changes simply by entering; with a female guide, they stay as they are.

The journey

One worked example, built for women travelling together.

Like everything we make, it is a starting point, not a package: yours is built again from scratch.

In her words

They were professional and helpful from my first enquiry to the end of the trip, arranging everything I asked for, from upscale restaurants and high tea to a sunset view of the Taj Mahal. My friends and I loved India, and they made Delhi, Agra and Jaipur worth it. Our guides were wonderful too, Seema especially.
