From new mobile tented camps and restored houseboats in Kashmir to wine-tasting trails and antique hunting, Asian Explorations has been specialising in experiential holidays across India for over 15 years. Here are just some of the options available in India: New silver service mobile tented camps in Kashmir. With a myriad of watercourses in some of the most breath-taking and remote mountain country, Kashmir is undoubtedly one of the best areas for trout fishing in India. From small fast-flowing rivers to the high glacial lakes of Gangabal, the best way to immerse oneself in this wilderness – be it to fish or enjoy the many hiking trails – is to stay in mobile tented camps. Hosted by expert guides, the dome-shaped tents feature comfortable mattresses with adjoining long-drop loos and hot showers, and delicious cuisine is served with silver-service porcelain and proper cutlery. The camps make an ideal base for couples, families and small groups and they can be assembled in some of the region’s most unspoilt, and often pretty inaccessible, locations. A 13-night itinerary costs from £3,729 pp (two sharing) including domestic flights, all camping equipment, full-board accommodation in Kashmir and five-star luxury hotel with breakfast on arrival and departure in Delhi, plus all trekking arrangements. International flights extra.
