Audley Travel was established by Craig Burkinshaw with the simple philosophy of offering clients the best possible travel experiences. Craig recognised that the only way of achieving this was to have specialists with detailed, in-depth knowledge of the countries we visit backed by a no-compromise attitude to quality and service. Our India specialists have all travelled extensively to their chosen country, and in some cases lived there, so you can rely on their first-hand knowledge. They have boundless enthusiasm for India and its wildlife and take an honest "tell it how it is" approach to planning an itinerary, suggesting sights, selecting accommodation and discussing the practicalities of travel. We also insist that they regularly revisit India, meticulously inspect hotels and keep up to date with all travel-related issues. We believe this approach is unique to Audley and ultimately ensures that you will have the best possible travel experience.
