Luxury Indian Subcontinent Family Tours made for you
Immerse yourself in the wonders of the Indian Subcontinent with a private journey designed just for your family
Discover one of the world's most vibrant regions with your family
The Indian Subcontinent includes the Indian Peninsula, the Himalayas and the Maldives and is an incredibly diverse corner of the world, filled with epic landscapes, magical cites and wonderful wildlife. It is also home to countless fascinating cultures so when it comes to a family trip with a difference, it really is hard to beat.
India is a whirlwind of colour and sound, its energy undeniably contagious. There are incredible palaces and forts to discover, whose stories come to life with expert private guides. Then there are some of the world’s fastest growing cities, sprawling metropolises that miraculously give way to scenic countryside and peaceful hill stations, where life has hardly changed in centuries.
And then there’s the wildlife. Few who come to India fail to be mesmerised when face to face with majestic tigers and leopards who stalk through the grasslands, playful monkeys screeching as they swing through the trees and colourful birds flit through the skies above. From birdwatching trips to Indian tiger safaris, wildlife loving families will be enchanted.
Sri Lanka may be small in comparison, but this island nation packs an awful lot in. Ruined cities, golden beaches, tea plantations and national parks teeming with wildlife make this an incredible destination for families looking for adventure. Sri Lankan life moves at a gentle pace, especially in resorts on the coast, and children are welcomed warmly by locals.
Nepal is another country that may be small in size but more than makes up for it in character. This is a fantastic destination for active families, with epic hiking trails through the mighty Himalayas.
Bhutan is a small but incredibly diverse country. The Land of the Dragons is celebrated for its peaks and its unspoilt natural environment hosts a huge range of biodiversity. Primates such as the slow loris and the rhesus macaque have made the country their home, along with animals such as the Bengal tiger, clouded and snow leopards, the black bear and the red panda.
And for those that love the beach, the picture-perfect islands of the Maldives are hard to beat with their sugar-white sands and sapphire-blue seas. Offering incredible underwater worlds to discover and luxury hotels with activities for children of all ages, it is a beautiful destination where you’ll certainly be kept entertained.

Communication and organization were excellent. The Jacada team was helpful and genuinely interested in our experience. The guides were personable, knowledgeable, and clearly enjoy their work.
