The Highlights of India

During your stay in New Delhi, you can opt to embark on a full day tour of the city, including visits to Humayun's Tomb and Qutub Minar, and concluding with a rickshaw ride through Old Delhi. 

Delhi's history is rich and varied, with the city having been the capital of two major empires between the 13th and 19th centuries: the Delhi sultanate and the Mughal Empire. This fascinating and diverse heritage, many remnants of which still remain today, means the city and surrounding area is a treasure-trove for history enthusiasts across the globe, with the city boasting three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb, and the Red Fort.

During your stay in Dehli, you'll travel to the city of Agra, home to the magnificent Taj Mahal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and India's most prominent monument. A must-see on any India itinerary, the mausoleum is an architectural masterpiece like no other, crafted with pure white marble and adorned with exquisite fine detail.

Following your visit to the Taj Mahal, you'll travel a short distance to another famous landmark, the historical Agra Fort. Built in the 16th century, the remarkable structure is famed for its striking appearance and grand size, constructed using only red sandstone and spanning a total area of 380,000 m². 

Embark on an incredible excursion through the Ranthambore National Park and encounter one of the world's most elusive creatures, the Bengal tiger. Following your tour of the park, you'll be invited to an educational talk held by the hotel's resident naturalist who will explain the journey of each tiger that resides in the park. Famed for its rich biodiversity, Ranthambore National Park is also home to an abundance of other wildlife species, including leopards, hyenas, sloth bears, macaques.

During your time in the region, you'll visit the Dhonk Craft, a pop-up marketplace held by the Dhonk organisation, an initiative that works to provide local communities with craft training and employment opportunities. 

Due to low light pollution, Ranthambore offers spectacular stargazing opportunities, which may be seen best from the observation tower of The Oberoi. This fascinating activity is conducted by a team of specialists who will lead you on a tour through the constellations. 

Continue your exploration of Indian architecture with a visit to two of Jaipur's most beautiful structures. The Amber Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, houses a selection of buildings of great religious and historical significance, including the ancient temple of Shila Devi and the breathtaking Ganesh Pol gate. 

Located in the heart of the Old City, the City Palace is undoubtedly Jaipur's most iconic royal landmark. Entirely composed of marble and granite, the impressive structure is comprised of a complex series of courtyards, gardens and smaller buildings. 

When you're not relaxing at the resort, you can enjoy discovering all Kovalam has to offer, from visiting its many gorgeous beaches and undertaking a variety of thrilling watersports to browsing the local markets and visiting the scenic Vellayani Lake.
