Curated Journeys Across
India, Canada & the World

“We had dreamed of seeing a tiger in the wild for thirty years and Globalduniya delivered beyond anything we imagined. Bandhavgarh produced three separate sightings in two days — including a tigress with her two cubs crossing the track directly in front of our jeep at dawn. Our naturalist guide Vikram's knowledge of individual tiger territories made all the difference. Kanha was equally rewarding for its hard-ground barasingha deer and leopard. The jeep was ours alone for all six drives, which meant we could wait as long as needed at sightings. Accommodation at Singinawa Jungle Lodge in Kanha and Kings Lodge in Bandhavgarh was superb — excellent food after long days in the jungle.”

“I was nervous about travelling solo to central India but Globalduniya looked after every single detail. Transfers were punctual, all lodges had been briefed on my dietary needs, and my local guide Arvind accompanied me through every step. The wildlife exceeded my expectations — five tiger sightings across Kanha and Bandhavgarh, along with wild dogs (dholes), a sloth bear with cubs, and more species of bird than I could count. The standard of the lodges was genuinely high — not glamping but proper wilderness luxury with excellent food. I would return for Pench next time.”

“We have done safaris in Africa but central India offers something completely different — smaller vehicles, fewer tourists per zone, and a more intimate experience. The biodiversity is astonishing: in five days we photographed tigers, leopards, wild dogs, gaur, sambar, spotted deer, Indian rollers and multiple raptor species. Our guide at Kanha was particularly strong on birds, which was a bonus for my wife who photographs wildlife. Transfer between parks by road was comfortable and our driver Suresh was excellent company. Globalduniya's organisation throughout was flawless.”

“Bandhavgarh's core zone at 6 am with mist over the valley and a tiger calling in the distance is an experience that stays with you. We saw tigers on four of our six game drives — an outstanding ratio. The lodges provided excellent food and the guides explained animal behaviour in real depth rather than just pointing and moving on. Kanha's landscape is different and equally beautiful — open meadows rather than Bandhavgarh's ridge and sal forest. Both parks rewarded patience and we were never rushed. Excellent value for the quality of experience.”

“As an Indian living in London, I had seen Indian wildlife only in documentaries. This trip changed everything. The density of wildlife in these reserves — particularly Bandhavgarh — is breathtaking. Our naturalist Rajesh spent two hours explaining the history of a particular tigress's territory and her lineage going back three generations of tigers. The depth of knowledge was remarkable. The lodges were excellent and the food — particularly at Kanha — was some of the best thali I have had anywhere. A trip every India-lover should prioritise.”

“We planned this trip for the Goa beaches and discovered that Hampi was the highlight of our entire journey. The scale of the Vijayanagara ruins is genuinely staggering — over 26 square kilometres of temples, royal enclosures, elephant stables and marketplaces spread across a surreal boulder landscape. Our guide Prakash brought the 14th-century empire to life in a way no guidebook could. The contrast between the busy beach resort energy of Goa and the quiet, timeless atmosphere of Hampi was perfectly judged. Both were excellent in their own way. The heritage hotel in Hampi was basic but characterful and entirely appropriate to the setting.”

“Goa's Portuguese heritage and seafood, followed by the dramatic boulder landscapes and medieval temples of Hampi — this is a combination that works beautifully. In Goa we had four days at a Panjim boutique hotel with excellent positioning for Old Goa's churches (a UNESCO site) and the beach. The transition to Hampi felt like a different world entirely. Our Hampi guide was brilliant — clearly passionate about the site and able to answer every question we threw at him. The sunrise at the Virupaksha Temple was magical. Globalduniya's organisation throughout was seamless.”

“We did the Golden Triangle on our first visit to India. This combination of Goa and Hampi felt more authentic and more adventurous. Old Goa's Baroque churches — the Basilica of Bom Jesus in particular — are genuinely world-class and see a fraction of the visitors of the major North India monuments. Hampi is simply jaw-dropping and we spent two full days exploring and still did not see everything. The Goa resort was excellent — pool, beach, and brilliant fish curry. A very well-curated route.”

“I will be honest — I booked this trip for the Goa beach days. Hampi was something I agreed to include on the advice of Globalduniya. Within an hour of arriving at Hampi I understood why it had been recommended so strongly. The boulders, the ruins, the river — it is unlike anywhere I have been before. My guide Mohan was extraordinary. Goa was lovely — the beach, the seafood, the laid-back atmosphere. But Hampi is what I talk about when people ask about this trip.”

“We are both in our early sixties and this was our first visit to India. Globalduniya made it completely stress-free. Every transfer was waiting as promised, every guide was briefed on our interests, and the hotels were excellent across the board. The Taj Mahal at sunrise lived up to every expectation — our guide Deepak positioned us perfectly for the light. Delhi's Qutb Minar and Humayun's Tomb were unexpectedly moving — the scale and craftsmanship of Mughal architecture has to be seen in person. Jaipur's Amber Fort is spectacular. A classic for very good reason.”

“We have done independent travel in Asia for years but tried a guided itinerary with Globalduniya for India on a friend's recommendation. The difference a good operator makes is significant. Our vehicle and driver Ramesh were always on time, always comfortable, and our guides in each city were clearly selected for knowledge rather than just language ability. The Taj remains one of the world's great sights — the approach through the Great Gate as the mausoleum appears in the archway is theatrical in the best sense. Jaipur's bazaars and the City Palace were highlights. Very well organised at a fair price.”

“I had wanted to visit India for ten years but was intimidated by the idea of planning it independently. Globalduniya's Golden Triangle Classic was the ideal solution — structured enough to feel safe, but with enough free time to explore independently. Delhi's Chandni Chowk market visit with a local guide was a highlight I would never have managed alone. The Taj at sunrise is not a cliché — it genuinely is the most beautiful building I have seen. Jaipur's pink streets and the rooftop dinner overlooking the Hawa Mahal was a perfect final evening. I will be booking again for South India.”

“We only had six days in India and were worried it would feel rushed. Globalduniya paced it perfectly — the driving distances between cities are manageable and the guides made every hour count. Agra's Agra Fort is often overlooked beside the Taj but it is a genuinely impressive site in its own right and our guide spent a full hour explaining the Mughal lineage from the ramparts. The hotels were all well-located and comfortable. Our driver Sanjay drove safely and smoothly across all three cities. Highly recommend for a short but immersive India experience.”

“We have done more adventurous India itineraries over the years but returned to the Golden Triangle for a short visit with family. Globalduniya handled a group of seven across three generations — from our 8-year-old grandson to my 72-year-old mother — with complete professionalism. The vehicles were appropriate, the pacing was adjusted for the children, and the guides tailored their commentary for mixed ages. Even a fourth visit to the Taj Mahal produces wonder. The organisation was flawless.”

“We chose the luxury version of the Golden Triangle specifically for the Oberoi properties and they surpassed every expectation. The Oberoi Amarvilas in Agra — where every room looks directly at the Taj Mahal — is simply extraordinary. Waking at dawn to that view from bed is an experience money can provide and we are not embarrassed to say so. The Oberoi Rajvilas in Jaipur was equally exceptional. The private guide allocated to us for the full eight days, Ashish, was one of the finest we have encountered in twenty years of international travel. His knowledge of Mughal art, architecture and history was encyclopaedic.”

“India was not the obvious honeymoon destination but we wanted something memorable rather than the standard beach resort, and Globalduniya delivered a genuinely magical ten days. The Rambagh Palace in Jaipur is one of the world's most romantic hotels — a former royal hunting lodge turned Taj property with impeccable gardens and superlative food. The Taj Mahal sunrise visit with just our guide was timed to perfection. Every hotel had been briefed for our honeymoon — flower petals on the bed, a bottle of champagne on arrival, and consistently warm and personal service. Thank you for making it so special.”

“We have done India twice before with group tours. This was our first private luxury itinerary and the difference is absolute. A private guide who learns your preferences on day one and adapts each subsequent day accordingly; a vehicle that waits exactly where you need it; restaurants pre-booked at the right time. The Leela Palace in New Delhi and the Oberoi Amarvilas were both at the top of their category. The photography opportunities at golden hour at the Qutb Minar, the Taj at both sunrise and sunset, and the Amber Fort ramparts were handled expertly — our guide positioned us at exactly the right moment.”

“As Indians who grew up visiting these cities on family holidays, we wondered whether a luxury guided version would add anything. It added everything. Our guide Dinesh showed us aspects of the Taj Mahal — the inlay work, the calligraphy, the optical illusions built into the architecture — that we had never noticed in ten previous visits. The Oberoi properties elevated the experience beyond comparison. A wonderful and very different way to see our own country's treasures.”

“India is a country that rewards proper preparation and the right local partner. Globalduniya handled every element of this luxury itinerary without a single misstep. Pre-arrival briefings covered dietary preferences, room preferences and interests in detail. The hotels — Leela Palace Delhi, Oberoi Amarvilas Agra, Rambagh Palace Jaipur — all delivered exceptional stays. The Taj at sunrise with our guide, who had secured us the ideal position before the crowds arrived, was everything I had hoped for. The private vehicle throughout made the journey comfortable and efficient. Highly recommend Globalduniya for luxury India.”

“Most of my friends who visit India do Delhi–Agra–Jaipur. Globalduniya suggested this itinerary as an alternative and I am so glad I took their advice. Goa's north is different from the south — quieter, more Portuguese in character, better for heritage exploration. And Hampi is genuinely one of the most extraordinary archaeological sites I have visited anywhere in the world. The train from Goa to Hubli and then transfer to Hampi was well organised and the accommodation throughout was comfortable. My guide at Hampi, Shiva, was outstanding — knowledgeable, patient and excellent English.”
