    An unforgettable trip to India off the beaten track! I am incredibly grateful for this intensive, diverse, and perfectly organized trip. The iternery was even spontaneously changed due to the political situation in Pakistan. That wasn't a problem at all. We always felt safe! Towns, citys, local markets, encounters with locals, and genuine insights into Indian culture. This is exactly what I was looking for – and I found it. Kudos to our guide and the entire team for this special experience!

    Best tour ever. Highly recommended One Life Adventures. Been on other tours such as Contiki, Topdeck, G Adventures with too many people 20 plus especially with limited inclusions and some with no meals included. OLA is the best company to travel with many included activities and some optionals and of course meals not included in some. Breakfast provided everyday.

    Great India Tour – Amazing Experience! I had a wonderful time on this India tour. We visited many amazing places. Our group leader, Nikhil, was fantastic. He made everything easy and interesting. He knew so much and took care of everything. The best part for me was seeing the Taj Mahal – it was so beautiful! Experiencing Indian culture was also very special. I highly recommend this tour!

    This trip completely exceeded our expectations! One Life Adventures did an amazing job organizing a diverse, exciting, and seamless two week tour of India. We experienced so many unforgettable highlights including visiting the Taj Mahal, exploring local streets and markets, watching a Bollywood movie in a local theatre, taking part in city walks, and soaking in India’s rich culture and history. What truly made this trip stand out though, was our guide, Nikhil. He went above and beyond every single day. No question was too small, no request too big, he made everyone feel safe, welcome, and cared for. His knowledge, patience, and great sense of humour brought the group together and helped us connect deeply with the places we visited. By the end, Nikhil wasn’t just our guide, he had become a friend. As first-time visitors to India, we couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the country. Highly recommend this tour and especially Nikhil if you’re lucky enough to travel with him!

    I had an amazing time on the 14-day Classic India Tour! The itinerary was well organized, and I met some great people along the way. Our guide, Nikhil, was fantastic—always helpful and committed to giving us the best experience. The hotels were clean, the staff friendly, and the food at every stop was delicious.

    · April 19th, 2025
    A great tour that really left like seeing the best bits of Northern India but in an authentic way. Arya was our guide and being led by a local adds a special twist onto any tour - we even got invited to a wedding! This was a real highlight of our trip and something we were all grateful to have been a part of. It is a busy trip and the itinerary can be jam packed but there is so much included on this tour which is a real selling point. I did some of the optional extras which I would really recommend such as the sunrise yoga and zip line in Jodhpur. The transport between each location was easy and the journeys went quickly. There are many beautiful forts to see, busy markets and lots of interesting history to learn.

    I really enjoyed my first time in India. This trip squeezed a lot of things into 14 days which I couldn’t have organised on my own. The organisation of transport and activities took the hassle out of the overwhelming environment and our tour guide Arya was very knowledgeable and always willing to accomodate our needs. India is a real culture shock, but this tour made it a fun experience.

    The 14 day India classic tour was absolutely fantastic. The accommodation was nice at every stop, and we went to some lovely restaurants. I will say that the food costs more than the operator’s “live like a king” budget suggested in the booklet, but I am happy to pay more to eat at trusted places. We were an all female group (10 of us) and one girl was on a shorter tour package and left at the end of Jaipur; and three other girls were on an added package for Nepal and flew there together at the end. The most challenging part of the entire tour is the overnight train from Bikaner to Delhi. You may end up sleeping in a section with people you don’t know, but you should still be with someone from the tour. A man sleeping in our quad snored so loudly that even noise cancelling headphones didn’t help. It was a really rocky train ride, and I much preferred the early morning train from Jodhpur to Bikaner (a much smoother journey). Our tour guide was Ashwary Singh (Ash). Hands down, the best tour guide I have ever had. He was so knowledgeable and proud of his culture, understood Australian humour, and would crack jokes. He treated everyone with so much kindness, and it never once felt cliquey. If you get Ash as your guide, you’ve won the lottery.

    The India tour was very well organised, and included so many activities and sights! I was very impressed by what was packed into 14 days…it felt like I’d been travelling for ages! I loved the accommodation - the hotels were all of a great standard, and were very comfortable. The Havelis were very unique, and I particularly loved the desert glamping tents in Pushkar and Bikaner - they were awesome! It was lovely to fall asleep in the cool, quiet night-time breeze. The standout aspect for me was our guide Ash - I cannot say enough about how amazing this man was to us! He is so knowledgeable, approachable, and goes out of his way to help you in any way that he can. He ensured we ate at safe restaurants, avoided scams, and got the best photo opportunities! It was a pleasure to get to know him, and to meet his lovely family at Holi festival, which we had the fortune of taking part in. Unfortunately, I got sick in the first couple of days - the heavy pollution in Delhi affected my throat and lungs, which then progressed into a bit of a chest infection over the week. It did clear, but there are a few things that I wish I’d bought with me in hindsight: - Pack a small/travel sized air purifier. To have it on next to your bed at night so you can breathe easier. I 1000% would do this if I could turn back time! - KN95 masks. I couldn’t find these anywhere, and when my throat was burning it would’ve been so helpful to block out the dust/exhaust fumes. - Bring strepsils and nasal spray, in addition to the usual painkillers and diarrhoea tablets Really going to miss my amazing travel companions, Ash, and this wonderful new country that I’ve had the privilege to explore! Thank you One Life!

      Here's the correct itinerary for Day 6 of the India tour: After breakfast in the morning, you'll take a private transfer to Pushkar, known as one of the holiest towns in India.

    • One Life AdventuresOperatorWritten January 2025

      Regarding the Holi Festival, as much as this is a joyous period and quite spectacular, it can also come with its concerns for the safety of females. Therefore, it is fully advised to watch this event from the safety of your hotel room and at a distance. Once you have arrived in India, do communicate with your guide to get an opinion for an alternative safe spot to enjoy the festival. Regarding a private Holi party, this may be worth communicating with the tour guide or the hotel about.

    I'm interested in your India group tour and understand you have group maximum number limit, think it said 22 to 24. My question is if I book and pay for my trip for my selected dates what happens if you don't reach minimum numbers for the trip to go ahead? What is the minimum number required for the trip to definitely proceed? I need to book my work holiday dates first so I can then book your India Tour / Dates
