Trunk India

"Ali is incredibly knowledgeable, her love for India is immense and is exactly who you want in your corner when you accidentally buy an $850AU scarf! If you want to immerse yourself in the culture, enjoy stunning accommodation options along the way, meet beautiful like minded people and have once in a lifetime experiences - Trunk India is the tour for you! Travelling through India any other way would be a huge disservice to yourself."

"Ali created such an intimate and personal itinerary to explore north India. Our days were filled with adventure, beauty, incredible food, culture and local interactions, and our evenings were restorative, gentle and luxurious. As a guide and tour leader, Ali’s clear gift is her deep empathy for the country and its people, which has allowed her to build authentic friendships we were lucky enough to benefit from - being welcomed into a country through joyful and unique local interactions. My highlights were cycling through old Jaipur as a pink dawn rose, exploring the warrens of Old Delhi while tasting everything in sight, relishing stillness at sunset on a private cruise in Udaipur, staying in beautiful historic homes and palaces each night, and meeting incredible and inspiring local people along the way."

"This was the greatest way to see, feel and taste a real slice of life in India. Amazing experiences I could have never discovered on my own or just with friends. The itinerary and accom were a perfect mix. I loved every minute."

"Could not recommend a tour company more highly. Ali was fantastic to deal with throughout the planning phase and made everything super simple. I just had to turn up and have a glorious time. Every stage of the trip was well thought out and had just the right balance of relaxation time mixed with exploring the cities and all they had to offer. Ali had lots of recommendations of things to do in our free time that were tried and tested but was also just as happy to discover new places with us. Great tour for those that are looking for excitement but also happy to leave the decision making up to an expert ;-)"

"I travelled with the Trunk Northern India Tour Sept 2022 and LOVED it. I never thought I would ever travel with an organised tour but this was so different to what I imagined. Ali curates such a clever and creative tour itinerary - we had experiences I wouldn't have known about or been able to access if I was organising myself. The hotels were all gorgeous and special experiences in themselves. It was such a treat not having to think or plan anything and knowing we were in such good hands. Ali Barter knows India and was an exceptional tour organiser, leader and guide. It was a brilliant experience and I highly recommend traveling with Trunk. You will love it."
