Two members of the Only Exclusive team are set to fly to India for a once in a lifetime trip. We will be documenting our exciting journey with regular blog posts on the Only Exclusive Travel Blog, with plenty of photographs, insider knowledge and travel tips from our experience over the two weeks. With only four days to go until departure, our itinerary is looking full and our excitement is growing...

Taj Lake Palace - Udaipur

As the newest member of the Only Exclusive team, I can say with utter conviction that I have never been so excited! It has been a lifelong dream to visit India; to visit and witness some of the vibrant culture, customs, geographical sites and monuments, and the simply stunning hotels is bound to be an unforgettable experience. Among the highlights of the trip, I am anticipating our visit to the Taj Lake Palace on Lake Picchola in Udaipur, with huge curiosity and expectation. If it is lavish enough for Octopussy, the eponymous villain of the 1983 James Bond film, I’m sure it will be absolutely breathtaking to behold in real life.

Without giving too much away, I will say this:  we will be visiting around 7 of India’s top hotels in cities such as Mumbai and New Delhi. It will be filled with earnest elegance, wonderful wilderness, sumptuous sunshine and fantastic food.

Our stay at some of the most renowned luxury hotels in India, by Taj Hotels, will allow us to see the level of luxury that the Indian elite, high-class business flyers, seasoned travellers, and more, enjoy when staying in India. We’ll divulge detailed, experiential information about what these fabulous Indian hotels offer, in the context of the cities in which they reside and the specific amenities that are unique to them. Stay in touch to be in-the-know, and up-to-date on the latest goings on in India.
