India, a land woven with tales of emperors, artisans, sages and storytellers, offers journeys that go far beyond sightseeing. For those with an appetite for exploration and a taste for culture, a 19-day India tour unfolds like an epic — a slow, immersive narrative through royal palaces, sacred ghats, spice-laden bazaars and serene backwaters. Among the finest experiences curated by Optima Travels are three remarkable odysseys: Incredible India Tour, Rajasthan Shopping Tour, and Luxury Incredible India Tour. Each offers a distinctive window into India’s soul, from its regal heritage to its contemporary vibrancy.
Incredible India Tour: The Incredible India Tour is an expansive 19-day voyage across the subcontinent’s most illustrious cities and monuments. It begins in Delhi, where imperial grandeur meets Mughal elegance in the Red Fort, Humayun’s Tomb and Qutub Minar. The journey continues through Jaipur, the “Pink City”, where the Amber Fort and City Palace narrate tales of Rajput valour.
From the deserts of Rajasthan to the riverbanks of Varanasi, the traveller witnesses the spiritual pulse of India — the evening aarti on the ghats, the sunrise over the Ganges, and the quiet wisdom of Sarnath. The tour also embraces Khajuraho’s sculptural marvels, Agra’s ethereal Taj Mahal, and Mumbai’s cosmopolitan charm. Winding down in Kerala, amid tranquil backwaters and palm-fringed canals, the tour gracefully captures the essence of India — vibrant, sacred and eternally alluring.
Rajasthan Shopping Tour: For those enchanted by India’s artistry, the Rajasthan Shopping Tour presents a rare opportunity to explore the state’s bustling bazaars and traditional workshops. Over nineteen delightful days, the traveller traverses cities that are as famous for their crafts as for their palaces.
In Jaipur, artisans craft exquisite block prints, gemstones and blue pottery; Jodhpur showcases finely embroidered textiles and antique furniture; and Udaipur, the city of lakes, offers silver jewellery and miniature paintings of divine grace. The journey extends to Jaisalmer, where the golden sands and intricate stonework evoke Rajasthan’s medieval opulence. Between shopping excursions, travellers visit forts, havelis and temples that define the region’s heritage.
This tour is not merely a spree of souvenirs — it is an immersion into India’s living traditions, where every fabric, gem and carving tells a story of lineage, skill and devotion.
Luxury Incredible India Tour: The Luxury Incredible India Tour reimagines exploration through the lens of indulgence. Crafted for the discerning traveller, it combines India’s cultural treasures with world-class hospitality. From chauffeur-driven transfers to stays in heritage palaces and luxury hotels, every moment is steeped in refinement.
The itinerary unfolds through Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Udaipur, Mumbai, Cochin and Kerala, weaving history with comfort. Private guided tours reveal the Taj Mahal at dawn, royal dinners revive regal flavours, and a serene cruise through the Kerala backwaters concludes the journey in poetic calm.
This 19-day sojourn offers India at its most opulent — where the splendour of the past meets the sophistication of the present and travel becomes a symphony of luxury, culture and memory.
In conclusion, these three 19-day India tour packages by Optima Travels celebrate the nation’s infinite diversity — from royal Rajasthan and spiritual Varanasi to serene Kerala. Whether one seeks discovery, artistry or indulgence, each itinerary promises not merely a journey through India, but an unforgettable experience of its heart and heritage.
