The travellers who come back from India with the most extraordinary stories almost always planned their trip around a festival.
Holi in Mathura. Diwali in Jaipur. The Pushkar Camel Fair. Hemis in Ladakh. Thrissur Pooram in Kerala.
These are not tourist attractions. They are living experiences that have been happening for centuries.
We have built some of our most memorable itineraries around India's festival calendar. Here is everything you need to know to do the same.
Which festival has always intrigued you? Drop it in the comments.

If You Have Never Planned a Trip Around an Indian Festival, You Are Missing the Best Version of This Country There is a version of India that exists for two weeks every year in a small desert town in Rajasthan. Thousands of camels, traders from across Central Asia, musicians, acrobats, folk dancers, and travellers from every corner of the world gathering under a sky so full of stars it does not look real.
DAY 5 - THANJAVUR + TRICHY
Some places remind you how small you really are.
The scale of these temples.
The silence inside the stone corridors.
The weight of centuries still standing.
This isn’t just architecture.
It’s history… carved into existence.

Why the most romantic trip you will ever take might be in India When couples come to us asking about a honeymoon, India is rarely their first suggestion. It is usually their second thought.
DAY 3 - KANCHIPURAM
Some places don’t need noise to feel powerful.
Kanchipuram moves differently.
Through temple corridors older than memory.
Through silk woven by hand.
Through moments that feel quiet… but stay with you.
This is South India at its most timeless.
