Most visitors come to Central India for its numerous wildlife reserves. Yet the land is rich in history, and strewn with hidden gems of architecture.
The temples of Khajuraho are perhaps the best example of erotic sculptural art in the world, an enigmatic signpost to the past. The great Buddhist stupa at Sanchi is the centrepiece of the best-preserved group of Buddhist monuments in India, and is amongst the oldest stone structures on the subcontinent. The medieval forts and palaces of Gwalior, Jhansi, Orchha and Mandu, and the royal city of Bhopal with its delectable cuisine and old-world charm deserve to be on your cultural itinerary.
Central India is also home to several tribes whose ancestors drew prehistoric cave art in Bhimbetka, and who continue to live in harmony with the jungles that inspired Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book.
Whether you wish to travel on one of our suggested itineraries, join a small-group tour, or simply be inspired by them to build your own adventures, we are there to help create your perfect holiday.
The jungles that inspired Rudyard Kipling’s story of Mowgli, the wolf-child.
From colonial administrators, shikaris and early conservationists to contemporary naturalists and wildlife photographers, the ‘big-game’ fauna of Central India’s stately forests has captivated generations.
Feel the palpable magic of ‘The Jungle Book’ in some of India’s most popular, magnificent and efficiently managed wildlife reserves.
