Bit of a long-shot maybe.

Just returned from a very pleasant evening celebrating the New Year with an old friend. We decided that we'd both like to travel to India before we both get too old and decrepit (we are now both mid 60s). We have the backing of both our wives (neither of whom seem to want to visit a country that doesn't have 'proper' toilets) and so it will be a 'boys only' trip. He's not as fanatical about railways as I am and so we'd like to do a combined sights and railways trip. Neither of us wants a 'package' holiday but neither are we of the 'backpacker hostel' generation. Ideally, we'd like to participate in a trip which is arranged by an organisation which is India-based - so we get an authentic experience and also support the local economy rather than plough our money into an anonymous

multinational company.

Can anyone advise?

Rik

PS - And no this is not an alcohol-fuelled whim (well partially maybe) - it is something we have been talking about for several years but now feel it's about time we actually did it!
 
Try someone like Trailfinders in the UK. Not a vast multi national but a genuinely good long haul travel specialist. For an Indian company, Cox and Kings - probably the world’s oldest travel agents, with offices in the UK.

Happy new year and safe travels.
