Small Group Escorted Tours | Extensions | Bespoke Experiences

Specialist tours to India

Explore incredible India, from the jungles of the south to the Himalayas of the north and the deserts of the west, with Australia's female-led specialist tour operator.

Ekno Travels has designed a range of tours, extensions and bespoke experiences that combine popular must dos like the Taj Mahal and Jaipur with more exotic and remote locations like Ladakh, the Spiti Valley and Northeast India.

Small groups cater for up to 10 people, but if you would like to go at your own pace, Ekno Travels can design an itinerary to suit your style and budget. Whether you want a luxury hotel, a Rajasthani haveli or a more modest home stay, Ekno has it covered.

Expert guides and staff are on hand to ensure your safety and comfort from the moment you land in India until the time you leave. With over 17 years’ experience and offices in Australia and India and a 24x7 hotline, Ekno is with you every step of the way.

Why Choose Ekno Travels?

Ekno’s Travel Director, Australian Sharon Thrupp, has lived in India and Nepal since the beginning of the millennium. She has introduced countless travellers to the uniqueness of India, from the snowy peaks of the Himalayas to its vibrant cosmopolitan cities.
