Tours

The Marigold Trail

Women-only journeys, built around safety, companionship and a lived-in local eye.

Journeys Designed Around Women Travellers

The Marigold Trail is our collection of women-only journeys — the same proven routes through Delhi, Agra and Rajasthan, planned around safety, companionship and the kind of local knowledge that makes a first trip to India feel manageable. Guides, drivers and stays are chosen to the same vetting standard on every one.

Each journey runs privately for your own party — a solo traveller, a pair of friends or a larger circle — never as a fixed-departure group with strangers. Choose a week in the Golden Triangle, a short desert escape to Jaisalmer with a night under the stars, or twelve days in Rajasthan following the lives of its queens and princesses.

Good To Know

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a women-only group tour?

No — every Marigold Trail journey runs as a private tour for your own party. 'Women-only' describes the trip's focus and vetting standard, not a shared group of other travellers.

Is it suitable for a solo traveller?

Yes. These journeys work equally well for one traveller, a pair or a larger group of friends, and our team stays reachable throughout the trip for anything that comes up.

When is the best time to go?

October to March for the Golden Triangle and Rajasthan palace routes. For the Jaisalmer desert safari, November to February is the most comfortable window.

What does a package price include?

Private air-conditioned road transport for the whole route, local English/Hindi-speaking guides in each city, airport and station transfers, and every driver allowance, toll, parking charge and state tax. Hotels, meals, monument tickets and any domestic flights are quoted separately, so you choose the stays and add-ons that suit you.

Can I change the route, pace or length?

Yes — every package is a starting point, not a fixed departure. Open it in the trip planner to add or drop a city, change the pace or pick a different vehicle, and the itinerary and price update as you go. Or send us an enquiry and we'll refine it with you.

Will we share transport with other travellers?

No. Every trip runs privately for your own party, with a dedicated vehicle and professional driver for the whole journey — a sedan for couples, an SUV or larger vehicle for families and groups.

Don't See Quite The Right Fit?

Every one of these is a starting point, not a fixed package — tell us what you're after and we'll build it.
