In Search of the Royal Bengal Tiger
)
A thrilling tour tracking tigers in India
Covering over 230 square miles, the Dholpur-Karauli Tiger Reserve features forests and grassland, and is the ideal habitat for tigers and other wildlife such as Indian leopards, sloth bears and hyena. The reserve is also a haven for birds, with species including Indian peafowl, painted stork and black drongo. During our new India Stay & Explore holiday enjoy six guided safaris in search of the reserve’s wildlife.
Each tour is a carefully planned balance of exploration and relaxation, with a range of included excursions as well as days at leisure. You’ll be escorted throughout by an expert tour manager, who’s there to make sure everything runs smoothly and offer any help or advice you need along the way. Our group sizes are on average 27 people (a little larger in Europe), so you can have a more immersive experience, too.
We arrange everything, from your tour travel and hotels to selected meals, visits and excursions. And with our nationwide return chauffeur service included on every tour, your holiday is hassle-free from start to finish.

Nationwide shared chauffeur service
We’re all about hassle-free holidays. So, let us whisk you from home to your departure point and back again after your trip with our included nationwide shared return chauffeur service on all tours.
We offer escorted tours in all corners of the world, with itineraries designed for all kinds of travellers. If you want to delve deeply into your chosen destination, perhaps choose a stay & explore tour, where you explore an area from just one or two hotels, or a small group tour that offers a more intimate, immersive experience. There are small ship tours (offering an almost ‘private yacht’ experience), cruise & tour combinations, and tour departures specifically for solo travellers.

How to choose the right tour for you
Booking a holiday is a big – and exciting – decision. But how do you decide exactly which tour is for you? We’ve put together a handy guide, with all the information you might want to think about before you make your choice.
){kind=icon}
Do you want free time?
It’s worth taking a look at the free time on each tour. If it’s important for you to have plenty of time to rest and relax, or if you like to have time to explore by yourself, you’ll probably prefer tours with a greater amount of free time. If you’d rather pack in as much as possible, this won’t be as relevant. Take a look at the included excursions, too. We always state whether they’re morning, afternoon, evening or full day excursions, so you can get a feel for how busy each day will be.

What sort of meal package appeals?
You’ll find details of the meal inclusions on each tour listed in overview panel, broken down into breakfasts, lunches and dinners. In some places (the USA, for example) we’ve found that customers often prefer to eat out at one of the many local restaurants. On these tours, you’ll find that we don’t include as many meals, to give you the choice of where you dine. If you’re looking for all-inclusive (where all meals and drinks are included), this will be mentioned here too.

What’s included in an all-inclusive escorted tour?
Our all-inclusive tours make it easy to budget for your holiday. We include even more in the price of these escorted tours, from all your meals and drinks to a comprehensive programme of excursions. This means you’ll only need spending money for extras like optional excursions, treats and souvenirs.

How active do you want to be?
One of the most common questions we’re asked about our tours is what sort of pace to expect. Some tours might include lots of walking, high altitudes and early starts to enjoy sunrises and action-packed days. Others take a more relaxed approach, staying in one hotel throughout and enjoying a more laid-back itinerary.
Our suitability guide gives each tour a rating from 1 (Leisurely) to 4 (Active Explorer). Check the pace rating of your tour, then have a read of the corresponding description below – it’ll give you a solid understanding of what your tour will entail. (If you have any specific questions regarding accessibility, please do call us for advice and recommendations tailored to your needs.)
Our slowest and most leisurely tours. You’ll only need to unpack once as our holidays in this grade will be based at just one hotel for the entire holiday. A combination of fascinating included excursions and free days makes this ideal for those seeking a relaxed experience. Inclusions may consist of sightseeing tours, visits to museums, landmarks and cultural sights, as well as gentle boat cruises or short train journeys. We’ll aways include rest time after each included activity.
A minimum requirement for included tours is being able to embark and disembark coaches, trains and boats without assistance, walk unaided at a steady pace or stand up to 30 minutes at a time, negotiating steps, and uneven, but mainly flat ground, including cobbles. You can opt to remain and the hotel and enjoy the facilities if you prefer.
Our holidays in this grade will stay in between one and three locations, usually with multiple nights in each location. Itineraries include a mix of included activities and free time to relax or explore on your own. These holidays are perfect for those who want to take it easy but also want to enjoy longer-day excursions, including guided walking tours, that really get to the heart of the destinations you’ll visit. There’ll usually be rest time after an included activity (please refer to the itinerary).
You’ll need to be able to walk unaided for up to one hour on walking tours, negotiating steps, gradients and uneven ground, particularly cobbles. Tours with safari elements may be in this grade and you’ll need to be able to embark and disembark safari vehicles without assistance. Safaris will normally have early morning starts, but we’ll ensure regular rest stops are in place.
A good level of fitness is required. You’ll be staying in multiple locations on your escorted holiday, in destinations around that world that have varying standards and climates. From cold and icy to hot and humid, you’ll need to be comfortable in a variety of conditions.
Some activities will take all day and may include extended walking tours. We may also have activities on consecutive days. Terrain will vary dependant on your destination and could be rough, especially when exploring archaeological sites, national parks or coastal areas.
We’ll also include free time for you to recharge or to explore independently, and we’ll always include rest breaks on longer activities. You’ll need to be able to undertake several hours of activities each day on varied terrain, with prolonged periods of standing, and there’ll be some early starts and later finishes and consecutive one-night stays. These holidays are not suitable for those with significant mobility issues, although you may be able to abstain from activities on certain tours if you choose to do so. Small ship cruises also fall into this category due to the steep steps onboard, the requirement to walk across ships when in dock; and the included walking tours.
Some of our most active holidays are at this grade. Similar to Grade 3, these holidays may also include areas of sustained higher altitude. If you enjoy active holidays and are prepared to be on your feet walking and standing for extended periods on potentially challenging terrain, including longer walks and hikes, then this grade is suitable for you.
Some destinations may be relatively remote, meaning support might be a little further away. There’ll be free time too, but the focus on these tours is to see more and do more. Be prepared for an increased number of early starts and later finishes, and more one-night stays on consecutive days.
Every one of our escorted tours is unique. So please check the individual holiday page to find out more. And if you have any questions, you can give us a call – we’ll be happy to help.
Discover a holiday created with you in mind. We take care of all the finer details, so you can sit back and relax, safe in the knowledge that you’re getting the high quality and personalised service you’d expect from Saga, every time.
