So, what are the most extravagant destinations in India apt for an unforgettable experiential luxury tour?

Best Luxury Destinations in India

India is woven with numerous colourful threads of travel worthy destinations that are truly remarkable, but nothing can beat the silky motifs of Rann of Kutch and Kerala. While one is a refreshing shower in the parched desert of Gujrat in the West, the latter is nature’s paradise in the South. The places unequivocally form the two best destinations in the country, tailor-made to provide its visitors with a luxurious experience of vacationing.

Rann of Kutch

Imagine vast emptiness. An emptiness that is stark white with no signs of any shrubs, marshes, animals or birds, and not even any bumps. This is what Rann of Kutch can be best described as- infinitely stretching lands of pure white salt. This salt desert located in Kutch district of Gujrat and spread in about 10,000 sq. km., while may sound too hostile, is undoubtedly one of the most beguiling and strangely beautiful places on earth. However, its best is brought out by the famous Rann of Kutch festival, better known as Rann Utsav, which is celebrated each year in December. Take a look at our Great Rann Utsav Luxury Packages are here.

Marked by foot-tapping folk music, amusing beats of dhol, enchanting moves of folk dances and tantalising aromas of spices, the festival gives you some severe travel goals. The riot of colours brought about by the colourful turbans, traditional attires of Gujarati women, lavish tents and handsomely dressed camels creates a striking contrast against the blank canvas of the white desert region. It is an altogether a different experience to stay in the luxurious and comfortable ‘Tent City’ set up especially for this occasion in Dhordo, the gateway to Rann, by the government. The place is the ideal spot to enjoy and experience the rich culture and traditions of this often disregarded as a barren land that gives birth to the vivid, extraordinary and marvellous life of Gujrat.

Kerala is Southern India’s most prized possession.

Kerala showcases distinct layers of its personality that reflects in its different geographical features of Western Ghats, backwaters, and beaches; each one more gorgeous than the other. The hill stations of Munnar, Thekkady, Vythiri etc. feature great rolling hills with sprawling tea and spice plantations that remain swathed in varied shades of green.
