Exploring India on a cultural tour

Meticulously planned, led by a variety of expert lecturers including Dr Peter Webb, and distinguished by exclusive access, the itineraries take in the ancient sites of Hinduism, notably the sacred city of Varanasi, and the art and architecture of the Mughals, of which the Taj Mahal is the finest expression; explore the old kingdoms of the Deccan Plateau, including the extraordinary ruined city of Hampi; and do justice to the British legacy, from the ‘Indian Mutiny’ of 1857 to the Raj architecture of old Calcutta.

In the south we enjoy the gastronomy of Kerala and in the north explore the painted palaces of Rajasthan and take the famous ‘toy train’ though Himalayan foothills to Shimla. And we never stint on the sundowner moments.

" The itinerary was extremely well planned, introducing us to the ancient history and culture of the various Peruvian peoples by way of the excellent Lima museum visits before we visited the amazing sites. " Peru: the Andean Heartland - Pre-Columbian to present day
" Well planned and well paced – we were very pleased that we were able to see so much. " Essential Rome - The complete spectrum of art, architecture and antiquities
" The route chosen revealed parts of London completely unknown to us, and the unfamiliar vistas of familiar landmarks were a joy. " The London Backstreet Walk - Hyde Park to the Tower
