Most India itineraries you'll find online are written for someone else - a generic traveller with generic interests, covering the same five cities in the same order. A custom itinerary starts from the opposite direction: instead of fitting you into an existing plan, the plan is built around your dates, your interests, and the way you'd like to travel.
That's what this page is for. The form below takes a few minutes to fill in, and from it, a draft itinerary can be put together - one that reflects your travel dates, group size, hotel preferences, and the kind of experiences you're hoping for, whether that's history, wildlife, festivals, or simply time to relax.
A fixed package tour works on the assumption that everyone wants the same things in the same proportions - a bit of sightseeing, a bit of culture, a fairly packed schedule. In practice, very few travellers actually fit that mould. Some want to spend a full day at one site rather than rushing through three. Others are happy to skip well-known monuments entirely in favour of something quieter. Some are travelling with extended family and need a different pace than a couple on a honeymoon would.
A customised India tour accounts for all of this from the outset. Rather than adjusting a template after the fact, the itinerary is shaped from your answers - which destinations interest you, how many days you have, what kind of accommodation you'd prefer, and what you'd like your days to look like.
The form asks for a few practical details first - your name, contact information, country, and arrival date - so that planning can begin with the right context. From there, it moves into the details that actually shape the trip:
Arrival place and number of days help establish the overall shape of the itinerary - whether you're working with a long weekend or several weeks, and where the journey naturally begins.
Number of travellers matters for everything from vehicle selection to room configurations, particularly for families or groups travelling together.
Hotel category is one of the more important choices, ranging from Five Star Luxury and Five Star Heritage properties - including genuine palace and heritage stays - through to Three Star options for travellers prioritising value, or "Not Required" for those who've already arranged their own accommodation.
Interests cover the broad themes that tend to shape an itinerary: monuments, cultural experiences, trekking, festivals, wildlife, city exploration and shopping, safaris, or something else entirely if your interests don't fit neatly into a category. Selecting more than one is common - many trips blend two or three of these naturally.
Tour plan and special requests is where the details that matter most to you can be added directly - a specific destination you'd like included, a celebration you're marking, dietary requirements, accessibility considerations, or anything else worth knowing before a draft itinerary is put together.
Once the form is submitted, the information goes to a team that works through it to put together a draft itinerary - matching destinations and pacing to your stated interests, selecting accommodation within your preferred category, and building in the experiences you've asked about.
This draft isn't final. It's a starting point for a conversation - if something doesn't look right, if you'd like more time somewhere, or if a destination you hadn't considered seems worth adding, all of that can be adjusted before anything is confirmed. The goal is an itinerary that, by the time it's finalised, genuinely reflects what you're looking for - not a close approximation of it.
If you're not entirely sure about some of the details - exact dates, for instance, or whether you'll need 7 days or 10 - that's fine. Approximate information is enough to start with, and specifics can be refined as the itinerary takes shape.
Similarly, if your interests don't map neatly onto the categories listed, the "Other" option and the special requests field are there for exactly that reason. Whether it's a specific photography interest, a wellness focus, or simply "we want to see as little of the typical tourist trail as possible," that information is useful and will be factored into the draft.
Fill in the form below to get started - it's the first step toward an itinerary that's actually built around your trip, not adjusted from someone else's.
