We specialize in immersive experiences focusing on three core pillars: Wildlife Conservation & Safaris, deep dives into Indian Heritage & Culture, and authentic interactions with Tribal Lifestyles. We also offer general tourist guiding across major Indian destinations.

We recommend booking at least 3-6 months in advance, especially for wildlife safaris during peak season (October to March), as park permits and preferred accommodation sell out quickly. For cultural city tours, 1 month advance notice is usually sufficient.

Absolutely. While we have preset packages, 80% of our tours are customized. We tailor itineraries based on your interests (e.g., photography focus, birdwatching, specific historical eras), pace, and group size. Contact us to start planning your bespoke journey.

Typically, our costs include professional guiding fees, ground transportation during the tour, park entry permits, safari jeep costs, and accommodation (if booked through us). We always provide a detailed breakdown before you confirm booking.

Costs usually exclude international flights, visa fees, personal expenses, tips, and meals not specified in the itinerary.

The peak season is from October to April when the weather is pleasant. However, for big cat sightings (tigers, leopards), the hot summer months of April, May, and early June are best as animals congregate around remaining waterholes, despite the heat. Most parks are closed during the monsoon season (July-September).

As ethical wildlife guides, we never guarantee sightings of specific wild animals. They are elusive and move freely in vast territories. However, our expertise in tracking and understanding animal behavior significantly increases your chances. We focus on the holistic experience of the jungle, not just chasing one species.

Yes, we encourage it! We design specific family-friendly itineraries that are engaging and educational for younger travelers, focusing on awareness and simpler conservation activities. Some parks may have age restrictions for certain safari zones, which we will advise on.

Wear comfortable, layered clothing in earth tones (greens, browns, beige) to blend in. Avoid bright colors like red or white. Mornings can be very cold in winter, so carry a jacket, gloves, and a beanie. A hat and sunglasses are essential for the afternoon sun.

This is our top priority. We operate with strict ethical guidelines. We visit communities where we have long-standing relationships and permission. We ensure fair compensation for any art purchased or performances given. Photography is allowed only with explicit permission. Our goal is cultural exchange, not "human zoos."

India's street food is legendary, but caution is needed. On our "Explore Cuisine" tours, Lalit only takes you to vendors known for high hygiene standards, fresh ingredients, and high turnover. We guide you on what is safe to try so you can enjoy the flavors without worry.

India is conservative regarding dress at religious sites. Both men and women should cover their shoulders and knees. You will need to remove shoes before entering temples or mosques. Carrying a scarf is always handy. We will advise you on specific requirements for each location daily.

Yes, many solo women travel incredible India successfully. However, having a professional guide significantly enhances safety and navigates cultural nuances. When traveling with us, your safety is paramount. We use trusted drivers, vetted accommodation, and ensure you are accompanied during excursions.

Most international travelers require a visa. India offers an easy e-Visa facility for citizens of many countries, which should be applied for online before arrival. Please check the official Indian Government Visa website for the latest requirements for your nationality.

We highly recommend purchasing comprehensive travel insurance in your home country that covers medical emergencies, trip cancellations, and baggage loss before travelling to India.

Our primary language for guiding is English. Lalit is fluent and experienced in guiding international guests. If you require guides in other languages (French, German, Spanish, etc.), please let us know during booking, and we will try to arrange specialists.

We use comfortable, air-conditioned private vehicles (sedans or SUVs depending on group size) with experienced, licensed professional drivers for all road travel between destinations. Inside national parks, we use registered open-top safari gypsies.

Yes, absolutely. India is incredibly vegetarian-friendly. Vegan options are also widely available. Please inform us of any specific allergies (e.g., nuts, gluten) at the time of booking, and we will ensure restaurants and hotels are notified to prepare suitable meals.

Please refer to our "Terms & Conditions" page for our detailed cancellation policy. Generally, cancellations made well in advance receive partial refunds, while last-minute cancellations may incur higher fees due to pre-booked permits and hotels.
