Highlights of the Road Less Traveled Tours in India
Traveling to off-road India takes you to destinations that are poles apart from being crowded. An experience like this in India well that’s something you should never miss.
Lap up to nature’s architectural excellence. The forests and meadows here are all beautiful but even real nature-architecture exists! Root bridge? Rings a bell?
Villages and towns with artistry running in every generation. Just imagine how amazing it will be to be surrounded by pieces of art at every sight. Priceless isn’t it?
Be the better version of yourself amidst the tribal tunes and village walks. Eat, dance and live with them to acknowledge their lives. So, detach yourself from the materialistic pleasures to connect with your wilder roots. Contemplate the soothing presence of the Gurus (Teachers) who have dedicated their lives to Yoga. Be the guest of these temples of salvation which are run by the top Yogis themselves.
Practice amidst the most placid settings onto the laps of Nature.
Visit the memorial of the Yoga-bearer of the East. Practice and calm your mind amidst the sounds of crashing waves.
Offbeat nature excursions folded in history. That certainly is the zest of the road less traveled. Come, become its acquaintance and finally its lover on your trip to untainted India.
Be rebellious by getting religious at the off-beat shrines. Find yourself by losing into total devotion at off-road India.

Amazing wildlife safari at Kanha! Extended Rajasthan with Taj! We booked a family trip ( 6 adults and 2 kids aged 6 and 9) with TGIR visiting Kanha national Park, Bandi national park and then the Rajasthan leg covering Agra and Rishikesh. We would like to give our special thanks to Kabir who was super responsive over the whatsapp and calls whenever we had any questions or queries. The trip planned was just fabulous and everything exceeded our expectations. Evreything was top notch right from the selection of the hotels like Taj in Kanha, RAAS Jodhpur, Vivaana in Mandawa just to name a few!! Our another gratitude goes to Kalaam and Vijendra, they made our wildlife Tiger Safari experience just magical with so much of patience, it felt like traveling with friends and had the best time ever. If you are planning a trip to India, we would strongly recommend you to travel with The Grand Indian Route. You shall not regret.

Rajasthan with the Family! Dream vacations planned. Karan and his team pulled off the dream vacations for my family. With less than a month of flying and travel planning from the America, we were not sure of how to plan with. Lucky enough to get Karan on the board, he hands down understood the requirement and helped us create the vacation plan for our family of eight. The hotels chosen were hand picked. Two hotels which stood out were RAAS jodhpur and Mountbatten Lodge. The activity which will be memorised for our lives will be Jawai Leopard Safari and tribal tours of Bhil. Once again a big thank you to the Grand Indian Route and Karan to pull it off for us.

Absolut zu empfehlen Zweifellos einer der besten Reiseveranstalter für Luxusreisen nach Indien! Karan und sein Team haben unsere Erwartungen bei Weitem übertroffen. Als vierköpfige Familie reisten wir im April für zwei Wochen durch Rajasthan und nach Agra. Sie haben nicht nur alles perfekt organisiert, sondern auch dafür gesorgt, dass wir einen tiefen Einblick in die Kultur des Landes erhielten. Unser Fahrer Dhiman war einfach Klasse – ein absolut sicherer und erfahrener Profi, der uns auf der Reise begleitete. Auch die Reiseleiter – Harry in Neu-Delhi, Kishore in Agra und Deependra in Jaipur – waren schlichtweg erstklassig. Der Reiseverlauf war total entspannt; das Tempo war so gewählt, dass wir reichlich Zeit hatten, uns auf alle Facetten Rajasthans zu konzentrieren. Ein absolut empfehlenswertes Unternehmen. Mein persönlicher Geheimtipp ist das kleine Heritage-Hotel „Chandelao Garh“; achten Sie darauf, dass es bei Ihrem Aufenthalt in Jodhpur mit eingeplant wird.

Perfectly arranged We had the most amazing trip around Rajasthan and Delhi last year. Everything was perfectly taken care of - wherever we went, we had a guide waiting for us on the spot. Our driver was reliable and friendly, all the hotels were excellent. On top of that, we got amazing value compared to quotes from other travel agencies! Couldn’t recommend the Grand Indian Route more.

Perfect Agra with Grand Indian Route With a planned stay in Agra of only 60 hours, our time was limited, but Karan from Grand Indian Route made it a seamless success. From train tickets to hotel arrangements and private drivers, each logistic was considered, planned for, and executed with precision. Our guide in Agra, Kishore, was knowledgeable and eager to share his extensive knowledge about India with us. He knew the best spots to see The Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and more. The pricing was fair, the service was excellent, and I'd trust Grand Indian Route again and again for any and all travel in the region. Pro Tip: Let your local guide know if you do not want to go to any government-run shops designed for tourists. While it is true that these shops offer a higher assurance of authenticity and quality, the prices are exorbitant and the salesmen at these facilities use high-pressure tactics to try and get you to buy.

If you’re looking for a spectacular Indian adventure The Grand India Route should be your go-to team. I’m currently spending a wonderful month travelling through Rajasthan and this is largely due to the excellent ‘The Grand India Route’ tour operator. Karan and his team have been amazing in helping me organise the trip - arranging transfers from city to city & various day trips/activities along the way. They’re always there for advice, support and encouragement (India solo takes a little while to settle into - and they have helped considerably in that process). At the moment I’m exploring Mount Abu with brilliant guides that Karan/TGIR arranged. I’m hiking in wonderful mountains, exploring the temples and small town & learning so much my head is spinning! And on top of all that I feel totally safe and taken care of. If you’re looking for a spectacular Indian adventure The Grand India Route should be your go-to team. And what a great name! Thank you!

Family trip to Sri Lanka We would like to sincerely thank The grand indian tour for organizing such a wonderful and memorable 17-day family trip to Sri Lanka. From the very beginning, the communication with your team was excellent — open, fast, and friendly. You truly listened to all our wishes and preferences, while also offering valuable advice and suggestions that helped us make the most of our journey. We really appreciated how you took the time to build a detailed and thoughtful itinerary, and how quickly and flexibly you adjusted it based on our additional needs — especially regarding our specific requirements for accommodation. Everything was handled with professionalism and care, and we always felt supported throughout the planning and the trip itself. Thanks to your team, we experienced Sri Lanka from many beautiful and diverse angles — from spiritual temples and historical landmarks to vibrant cities, peaceful beaches, and close encounters with nature and wildlife. The itinerary was very well balanced, offering the right mix of exploration, relaxation, and cultural insight. A special thanks also goes to the wonderful guides and our driver in Sri Lanka. They were not only professional and knowledgeable, but also kind, empathetic, and genuinely fun to be around. They made us feel safe, welcomed, and well taken care of every step of the way. Overall, we are truly grateful for the chance to experience Sri Lanka in such a smooth, enriching, and joyful way. Your efforts made this trip unforgettable for our family, and we would gladly recommend your agency to anyone planning to explore this beautiful country.

Odisha Tribal Tour My wife and I recently had the opportunity to visit Odisha for our 1st time for a tribal tour. We were most fortunate to have chosen Karan of The Grand Indian Route to arrange this tour. It was amazing as we visited many isolated villages and interacted with various local animist tribes. It was surely the most authentic tribal experience of my life and it has my highest recommendation. The Grand Indian Route chose Jitu as our guide. He was phenomenal and speaks 12 local dialects which allowed us to meet many villagers who did not speak other languages. We visited villages that are rarely seen by outsiders and the people were as curious about us as we were about them. We were not seen as tourists but rather, were treated like family by the local people. Also, our driver and car were 1st class, and the accommodations were fine. This is not a luxury tour; it is a back country exploration of often hidden tribal cultures. And was truly one of the best and most enlightening travel experiences ever. If you are interested in travel off the beaten track, and in meeting various animist cultures, this is the tour for you.
