India is a destination full of real life experiences where a rich history is immortalized in its culture and heritage and the real essence of India can be found in its people and their culture. A trip to India is more like wrapped surprises opening in-front of your eyes one after another. You just don't travel in India you live through it.
With this trip, you experience the constrast between the business of Indian big cities and the majesty of ancient kingdoms. During three day, with your local guide, you visit and understand the rich history and past of Aurangabad. You're stunned by Ajanta and Ellora and ammazed by the architecture of Bibi Ka Maqbara, built by a son for his mother.
Back in Mumbai, you explore the city throught the smells and flavours of the Maharashtri cuisine, well know all around the country to be one of the best of India.
We’ll start at Mumbai’s most famous beach, Chowpatty, where we’ll try an array of Mumbai’s best vegetarian street food as we watch the sunset. We’ll have classics such as Dahi puri, Pani puri and pav bhaji. Then we’ll take a short taxi ride to the lively Mohommad Ali Road area. In this predominantly Muslim neighbourhood, we’ll introduce you to the local culture and, of course, the delicious food. In the bustling Ali Khao gaullis (eating lanes) you will find mainly non-vegetarian options such as Chota kebabs and chicken tikka.

It is said that people from Brittany are travellers, I guess I am no exception! If I went around Europe a bit during my youth, I caught the travel virus, during my first expatriation to Mauritius. When I set foot on the sand, it hit me: I was made for the sun. A second experience followed, Reunion Island for two years, exploring the island from one end to the other on the hiking trails. In 2017, I surprised myself when I stopped with my suitcases in Sri Lanka and then in India in 2019. In this country the size of a continent, impossible to get bored! From the cultural heritage of Rajasthan to the mountain side of the Himalayas in Ladakh or Sikkim, not forgetting the tropical weather of the South States, the exploration never ends…
