Newmarket adds two tours in India and South African safari
Samantha Mayling
Escorted-tours specialist Newmarket Holidays has added two tours to India and a South Africa safari to its programme. The Authentic India 15-day trips depart on six dates
between November 2024 and November 2025. Prices lead in at £2,687 for bookings made by December 4. Highlights include Old Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, the
Amber Fort and Taj Mahal. There will be five departures on the 14-day India’s
Best Wildlife & the Taj Mahal tour between January and November 2025. The itinerary starts with a tour of Mumbai before
transferring to the ‘tiger capital’ of Nagpur for safaris in some of India’s best wildlife-viewing parks. It also takes in Agra and the Taj Mahal. Prices start at £3,240, including early-booking discount.
On Safari in South Africa – Karongwe Game Reserve,
which is based in a luxury tented camp, leads in at £2,546. All prices include return flights from Heathrow. Verity Rice, Newmarket Holidays’ product,
purchasing and operations director, said: “India sales are doing increasingly well, and these two tours offer guests new views of this exhilarating destination. “Authentic India uses small, family-run hotels and
explores responsible tourism to take customers under the skin of the country. And no other operator offers the unique touring combination we have brought together for India’s Best Wildlife, which covers less- discovered national parks for numerous opportunities to see native animals in beautiful settings. “Demand is booming for South African safaris. The
Karongwe Game Reserve tour offers excellent value for money and adds half-term departure dates for families.”
