Partner with usGood to know
Straight answers to what international travellers ask us most.
All questionsOnly South India for now: Tamil Nadu (our home base, with Puducherry), Kerala, Karnataka and Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh. We add regions only once our own team has vetted the hotels, drivers and guides there.
October to March is the most comfortable period for most of South India. April to June is very hot. Kerala and Karnataka receive the southwest monsoon from June to September, and coastal Tamil Nadu receives the northeast monsoon from about October to December.
Our signature journeys start from ₹55,000 per person for 5 days and go up to about ₹1,85,000 for 15 days, based on two people sharing. Prices include hotels, a private car and driver, breakfast and guided visits, and exclude international flights. Every trip receives a written, itemised quotation.
South India is widely visited by international travellers. With us you travel in a private vehicle with a vetted driver, stay in inspected hotels and have a 24/7 escalation contact in India, with a documented plan for missed pickups, lost passports and medical needs.
Most nationalities need a visa. Many can apply for an Indian e-Visa directly on the official government portal, indianvisaonline.gov.in. We provide document checklists and guidance free of charge with any booking, but we do not charge for e-Visa applications, as intermediaries are not permitted to.
Most Tamil Nadu temples welcome visitors of all faiths into the outer halls and corridors, while some inner sanctums are reserved for Hindus. Several major Kerala temples restrict entry to Hindus. Your guide confirms the current rules for each temple before you visit.
