STORIES AND DESTINATIONS
My fascination for Kumaon. While the Himalayas everywhere are stunningly scenic, the Himalayas in Kumaon feel like home. There’s never a scary feeling in Kumaon – the hair raising turns and bends are much less!

Testimonials
We contacted Indian Moments, when we wanted to explore
Central India for six weeks in January and February, 2024.
From the beginning, Neeraj and his team worked diligently,
using, as an outline, our wishes but also suggesting places
they knew we should not miss. Every step was carefully
planned, and, in the end, we enjoyed the trip of a lifetime.
We visited bustling cities (Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and
Bhopal,) but we also enjoyed the peace and the incredible
wildlife of several national parks (Gir, Little Rann, Kanha,
and Tadoba.) Encounters with Asiatic Lions, Bengal Tigers,
and even the Indian Wild Ass, are indelible in our memories.
It wasn’t only the planning that made this trip so
memorable. Read More

What to see, what to eat, whom to speak to and what to buy can, at best, be suggestions, NOT compulsions. We encourage our guests to often be on their own and interact with local cultures.
