Multiday tours in India can make all the difference when you’re visiting for the first time. Travelling in India for the first time can feel like a full-time job. It usually starts with excitement, and eventually, the process becomes overwhelming.
There is so much to see on the list- The Taj Mahal, Wildlife Safaris, Royal Palaces, Kerala’s backwaters. And with that, there is chaos- trains running on their own time, Google Maps also needing guidance, and the must-try street food? Is that even hygienic?
That’s where we come into the picture.

A Journey that goes beyond the checklist
I am Krishna, co-founder of Reality Tours and Travel. Nearly two decades ago, my friend/ co-founder Chris and I started this company with a simple idea: to show travellers the real India, and to give back to the communities we are proud to be a part of. Not just the postcard version, but the moments and people that make this country so unforgettable.
India is a land of contrasts and diversity. Our multiday tours are designed to go beyond just ticking off landmarks. We mix iconic sights with places and people you wouldn’t find on your own- giving you a deeper, more personal experience of India.
What Sets Our Multiday Tours in India Apart?
You are signing up for more than just sightseeing when you join one of our multi-day tours.
A smart balance between top sights and real-life experience
The multiday itineraries on our website have been carefully planned to get the right balance between the must-see tourist sites, as well as real life…Like on our Kerala tour, where you can have authentic local experiences by adding a village experience, along with visiting the relaxing backwaters in Alleppey and Munnar’s tea museum.
We address the practical and logistical issues to make your trip comfortable
We ensure that the accommodation meets a suitable standard and is in a location that suits your preferences—whether you’d like to be in the city center amid the hustle and bustle, or in a quieter spot for a more relaxing stay away from the city. We book transport within and between cities, carefully chosen for your comfort and safety, with very experienced drivers. We advise on suitable attractions to visit, including arranging for good local tour guides or recommending a beautiful rooftop restaurant for a romantic candlelight dinner!!
Options that suit every style
There are various ways you can travel with us — either on a shared group tour with other travelers, which is a great option to make it a budget-friendly travel, or on a private tour that you can customize to suit your preferences, at your own time and pace.
Trusted Guides for Your Multiday Tour in India
With over 20 years of experience meeting travellers from around the world and organising tours around India, Nepal, and Srilanka, I know that what will make your trip extra special will be your Reality Tours guide. We take pride in our guides, who have undergone extensive training. Unlike many other travel companies, they are employed directly by Reality Tours and Travel.
If you’re doing a shared group tour, a Reality Tours guide will be with you for the entire trip. If you’re doing a private tour, you can decide to have one of our guides with you for the whole trip, which I highly recommend for first-timers in this crazy country!
They’re passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely care — whether they’re explaining India’s Culture, beliefs, and customs, or helping you find a clean washroom on a long road trip, or teaching you some words in India among 100s of Indian Languages. They will definitely be the bridge between you and the people you meet during your trip.
24/7 Support on Our Multiday Tours in India
India is magical – but unpredictable. Some days it might be the uninvited bag full of surprises. On all of our multi-day tours, you will have the support of our Reservations Team, of which I’m in charge! Problems happen in India, and our team is there to help you 24/7. From train delays to last-minute changes, we handle the logistics so you don’t have to. We are just a call away. They will help ensure that your trip is truly memorable.
And what makes us different?
80% of all our post-tax profits go directly to our charity, Reality Gives, which runs educational programs for young people in the slums of Dharavi in Mumbai and Sanjay Colony in Delhi, as well as in Naujheel, a village in the province of Uttar Pradesh.
Real Travel, Real Impact
When you travel with us, your journey makes a lasting impact — both for you and for others.
So the next time someone asks, “What did you do in India?”, you won’t just say “I saw the Taj Mahal”. You will say, “I met a guide named Naresh who told me stories about his childhood in Mumbai. I met a kid in a slum of India who would like to be an astronaut. I visited a classroom that was funded by my trip. I shared a meal with a local family in Dharavi, one of the largest slums in Asia. And yes- I saw the Taj Mahal, too”.
