in India’s islands

India’s islands are home to geological wonders, historical sites, white-sand beaches, exotic marine life, and thrilling water sports.

In the Andamans, adventure enthusiasts can dive into crystal-clear waters to explore vibrant coral reefs or trek through dense rainforests, while history enthusiasts can discover the colonial-era secrets of Ross Island and Port Blair. Lakshadweep, with its secluded atolls and lagoons, is a haven for water sports like scuba diving, snorkeling, and canoeing. Travelers can also visit stunning geological formations and participate in marine conservation initiatives with locals.

Guest Experiences

"Served over 26000 travellers to India.."

The local agency was able to translate our idea of ​​travel into activities that met our tastes well. Drivers and guides: punctual and available. The local agency was in constant contact with us via WhatsApp. The flexibility on the planned activities was also good. Excursion to Periyar, during the monsoons - it is better to do it with rubber boots. The idea of ​​not limiting yourself to the north (Rajasthan) and including the south (Kerala) is excellent, you go fast and take internal flights but it is worth it. Recommended houseboat in Kerala and tea plantations in Munnar, all the classics of the north including Amber Fort in Jaipur were good. Good idea of ​​dinner with a family in Jaipur.

Thanks to Travel XS we have had a wonderful trip. A perfect organization both in the preparation and throughout the trip. We were welcomed at the airport and then always taken into account in a secure and punctual way, by the guides and drivers who were very friendly and attentive. They made sure of our safety throughout the visits and pick-ups at the different hotels. The different class hotels were always very good or beautiful, we were never disappointed. The hotel staff always very friendly. The tours, well organized, were very interesting and well accompanied by the guides. We learned a lot about India and its history.

Our three-week trip with our five-year-old son took us first through the tropical south in Kerala and then along the 'Golden Triangle' in the north, including detours to several national parks. This enabled us to get to know two parts of the country that were very different in terms of culture and landscape and to experience at least some of India's diversity. We will always remember the impressions of the lives of the people and nature. Despite the intense experiences, we were able to relax thanks to the accommodations (oasis of peace) that were well-selected by the travel agent. The conversations with our two drivers and the people in the host families were enriching. We hardly came across any Western families. With a little travel experience, however, even small children are no obstacle to traveling to this exciting country.
