"What an incredible time we had visiting India with Food I Am. From dinner in a real Maharaja’s palace, to being blessed in a shrine by a toothless Hindu priest, our holiday was truly life changing. We’ll never forget those hectic, motorised rickshaw rides through lively markets, chaotic traffic, heavily laden carts, honking motorbikes, elephants, marching bands and more. Visiting elaborate forts, temples, shrines, mausoleums, palaces, and of course the Taj Mahal was so wonderful - with fantastic local guides bringing it all to life for us.

We loved staying in the gorgeous accommodation organised for us too. Best of all was the insight we gained into the Indian people. Despite considerable challenges, the Hindu faith seems to sustain them and lift them above material concerns (apart from those Hawkers of course LOL!).

It was humbling to watch the locals observing their devotions and rituals with cremation ceremonies and celebrations of life on the holy River Ganges. It was fantastic tasting unique treats from street vendors on food tours down seedy back alleys, learning to cook ‘real’ Indian for ourselves and of course enjoying the many sensational meals planned for us on the tour.

Thank you for organising such a well-planned trip and itinerary. From sending our luggage ahead by bus so we only had ‘carry-on’ for the planes, through to seamless hotel check-in, as well as thoughtful touches like our gift bags, everything was simply perfectly organised. 

We can’t wait for the next trip!
Thank you so much! Hostess with the mostess!!"
