Why we exist
Who We Are
India Escapes is a locally owned and operated destination specialist, creating exceptional journeys across India for travellers from around the world. Based in the Himalayas of Himachal Pradesh, we design carefully curated holidays that combine authentic experiences, comfortable accommodation, and seamless travel. Unlike many international tour operators, we don't simply sell destinations—we live them. Every itinerary is built from first-hand knowledge, trusted local partnerships, and years of on-ground experience, allowing you to discover India with confidence, comfort, and authenticity. Whether you're exploring the vibrant cities of Rajasthan, the peaceful Himalayan foothills, or the dramatic landscapes of SpitiValley, our experienced team is committed to creating journeys that are personal, meaningful, and unforgettable.
Our story
India Escapes was founded with one simple vision—to help travellers experience the real India through the eyes of local experts. What began as a passion for showcasing the beauty of Himachal Pradesh has grown into a trusted travel company designing tailor-made and small group journeys across the country. We believe the best travel experiences come from genuine local knowledge, honest advice, and carefully selected partners. Today, we work directly with hotels, experienced guides, transport providers, and local communities throughout India. By removing unnecessary middlemen, we maintain higher service standards, better value, and greater flexibility for our guests. Our success is built on trust, long-term relationships, and a genauine passion for sharing India's incredible culture, history landscapes, and hospitality.
