    Pricing guidelines for India

    • Open Panel 

    We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

    International flights will add from about £450 to £700 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). India combines well with Nepal.

    For a specific personal quote based on any tailor made itinerary you have in mind, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.
