Important remarks

  • Triple rooms in India are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
  • The baggage allowance on domestic flights of most airlines in India is usually 15 kg per person, so lower than on international flights. Please take account of this when packing your bags.
  • Please check with your international vaccination centre about the recommended healthcare measures in India.
  • The tours include cultural stops at local workshops so you can learn about the production of traditional crafts.
  • To reconfirm services at the destination, please send us your passport details within 24 hours of booking.
  • Travellers are required to complete the e‑Arrival Card at least 3 days prior to the start of their journey. The form can be completed via the official Indian Visa Online website (https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/earrival/) or through the Indian Visa “Su‑Swagatam” mobile application (App Store | Google Play). Completion of this form does not remove the requirement to hold a valid visa; travellers must still complete the visa application process.
  • Triple rooms in Asia are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
  • Check-in time at the hotel on the day of arrival depends on each establishment, but in no case will it be before 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise indicated.
  • The boat ride on Lake Pichola will depend on the water level.
  • Groups may be multilingual.
  • Pushkar is a small town in Rajasthan with a simpler infrastructure than in other areas of the country, as well as being considered a holy city. This is why the diet there is vegetarian and the consumption of alcohol isn't allowed.
  • The order of the itinerary may be altered for logistical reasons, without prior notice, but no scheduled trips will be cancelled (except in the case that adverse weather conditions prevent its realisation).
  • A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.
  • Prices are calculated based on admission fees to the sights as of the date of publication. If there is an increase in these prices, you will be promptly informed.
  • If you are a person with reduced mobility, please contact us to confirm the suitability of the trip.
  • Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
