We had a memorable time in Delhi and Agra, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience of seeing the city and the countryside as we traveled between the two cities. The sites were amazing, as expected, and our guides were able and helpful in explaining what we were seeing and answering our many questions. They did a great job of ensuring we were able to get great photos as well along the way.

Alkof Holidays was a very good choice for arranging an individual journey throughout Darjeeling, Sikkim and Bhutan in November 2025. The planning via e-mail was easy and turned out to be perfect. The whole tour was professionally organized and included all important points of interest as well as our individual preferences. The guides and drivers in Darjeeling/Sikkim as well as in Bhutan were very nice, helpful and competent. Mr. Sanjeev Kumar himself was at all times very polite, kind and accommodating. Thank you! I can highly recommend Alkof Holidays!

First, I want to highlight that ALKOF HOLIDAYS truly deserves more than 5 stars!

First, I want to highlight that ALKOF HOLIDAYS truly deserves more than 5 stars!... First, I want to highlight that ALKOF HOLIDAYS truly deserves more than 5 stars! When my friend Elisabeth and I decided to take this trip, Mr. Sanjeev Kumar contacted us — and that turned out to be the best choice we could have made! He suggested different hotels, recommended excursions, and always ensured we had options that met our expectations and complete satisfaction. He customized the tour according to our wishes in the best possible way. He arranged highly competent, pleasant, friendly, and helpful guides and drivers with excellent cars. They always accepted all our ‘extra wishes,’ such as photo stops or changes in the planned schedule, and were always exactly on time. Mr. Gurvinder Singh gave us a wonderfully informative tour in Kolkata. During our days in Darjeeling, we had Mr. Amid Gurung, who was extremely caring, helpful, and always adjusted the excursions—especially those involving many steps or steep climbs—to my age (79). He supported me with great caution by holding my arm or hand whenever needed. Our driver, Mr. Binai, was the best driver you could imagine, especially considering the road conditions—landslides, rocks, roadwork, heavy traffic—but he handled everything perfectly and calmly! In Bhutan, our guide Mr. Sungay was such a pleasant companion and shared a lot about the country, its people, religion, and lifestyle. Our driver Ellis was also very kind, but Elisabeth somehow did not feel comfortable with his driving (although I did not agree!). So, we changed to Mr. Rimchen, another extremely kind, helpful, charming, pleasant, and excellent driver. We had a wonderful and very interesting trip with extraordinary views of mountains, monasteries, temples, tea estates, forests, rivers, flowers, and beautiful houses. We met unforgettable, kind people — and to top it all, we enjoyed blue skies and warm sunshine every single day! Mr. Sanjeev Kumar was always reachable whenever needed. Even when we returned to Delhi, he accompanied us to an extraordinary fabric factory that my friend wanted to visit. He arranged a car for the visit and organized a bigger vehicle for our return to the airport to accommodate all our luggage. Thanks to ALKOF HOLIDAYS, and especially to Mr. Sanjeev Kumar — who spent so much time and effort arranging our reservations, visas, and all the special extras — we look back on a wonderful trip we will never forget. We will continue to enjoy all the photos we took! We will certainly recommend ALKOF HOLIDAYS to all our friends and family who are interested in tours to Southeast Asia. Once again, my sincere thanks and best regards to Alkof Holidays! Sylvia Veronika Lukas

Women Only Tours Travel FAQs

Yes, women only tours in South Asia are very safe when organized properly. At Alkof Holidays, our female guides know the regions intimately and handle all logistics. We select accommodations with strong security protocols and work with trusted local contacts. Our groups stay together throughout the journey. We avoid areas with safety concerns and plan routes that prioritize comfort. All transportation is vetted and reliable. Many solo female travelers join our groups and feel more confident exploring with other women. Twenty years of experience means we know exactly how to create worry-free travel for women across India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Sri Lanka.
Most women only tours work best with 10-15 days. This gives you time to see multiple destinations without rushing. Seven days works for single-country focus like Rajasthan or Kerala. Three weeks allows deeper exploration across two countries. We design itineraries based on your interests. Cultural tours through India's Golden Triangle need 8-10 days. Wildlife and wellness combinations in Sri Lanka work well in 12 days. Nepal trekking requires 14-16 days including acclimatization. Our travel experts help match duration to your preferences and available time.
October to March offers the best weather across most of South Asia. Temperatures are cooler and rainfall minimal. November through February is peak season with perfect conditions for sightseeing. March can be warm but still comfortable. April through September brings monsoons and extreme heat to many regions. Nepal trekking works best October-November and March-May. Sri Lanka's west coast is ideal December-March, while the east coast shines April-September. Bhutan is perfect March-May and September-November. We time each tour to match the destination's optimal season.
Our women only tours focus on cultural immersion and authentic experiences. You'll visit ancient temples, royal palaces, and UNESCO World Heritage sites with expert female guides. Cooking classes with local families are popular. Many tours include textile workshops, pottery sessions, and traditional craft demonstrations. Wildlife safaris in national parks offer incredible photography opportunities. Wellness elements like yoga retreats and Ayurvedic spa treatments are common. Some tours feature home stays in rural villages. We arrange meetings with women entrepreneurs and social activists. Each tour balances guided activities with free time for shopping and personal exploration.
Modest dressing shows respect and helps you blend in comfortably. Cover shoulders and knees when visiting religious sites and rural areas. Loose, breathable fabrics work best in the climate. Long pants or maxi skirts are ideal. Cotton scarves are useful for temple visits and sun protection. Tank tops and shorts are fine in tourist hotels and beach areas. We provide detailed packing lists before departure. Local markets sell beautiful modest clothing if you want to shop for traditional outfits. Our female guides advise on appropriate dress for each location. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for sightseeing.
Visa requirements depend on your nationality and destinations. Most visitors need visas for India, which we help arrange through the e-visa system. Nepal offers visa-on-arrival for many nationalities at Kathmandu airport. Bhutan requires visas processed through registered tour operators like us. Sri Lanka has electronic travel authorization for most countries. Processing times vary from 24 hours to several weeks. We provide complete visa guidance and handle applications where permitted. Some tours visit multiple countries requiring separate visas. Our team tracks all requirements and deadlines to ensure smooth travel.
We select comfortable, secure accommodations that enhance your experience. Heritage hotels in converted palaces and forts are popular choices. Boutique properties with personal service work well for small groups. All rooms have private bathrooms and reliable security. Rural areas feature carefully chosen family-run guesthouses or eco-lodges. Wellness-focused tours include spa resorts and yoga retreats. We inspect all properties personally before including them. WiFi is available at most locations. Air conditioning is standard except in mountain regions. Some tours offer home stays with local families for cultural immersion. Every accommodation meets our safety and comfort standards.
South Asian cuisine varies dramatically by region and we introduce you to authentic flavors safely. Most meals feature rice, vegetables, and regional specialties. Spice levels are adjusted for international palates. Vegetarian options are abundant and delicious. Fresh fruits, breads, and dairy products are staples. Street food tours happen in selected safe locations with our guides. We avoid raw vegetables and unfiltered water as precautions. Many tours include cooking classes where you learn to prepare traditional dishes. Special dietary needs like gluten-free or vegan are accommodated with advance notice. Bottled water is provided throughout your journey.
We use private, air-conditioned vehicles with experienced local drivers throughout your tour. No crowded public buses or uncomfortable travel. Train journeys use reserved compartments on premium services when appropriate. Domestic flights connect distant cities efficiently. Our drivers know the routes and speak basic English. Vehicles are regularly maintained and insured. Mountain regions use smaller vehicles suited to narrow roads. Longer drives include comfort stops and sightseeing breaks. We handle all bookings and logistics so you can relax. Emergency contact numbers are provided for all transportation arrangements.
Absolutely. Solo female travelers make up about half of our women only groups. You'll meet like-minded women from around the world who share your love of travel and adventure. Group sizes typically range from 6-12 participants. Single room supplements apply but we can arrange shared accommodation if you prefer. Many lasting friendships form during these journeys. Our female guides help everyone feel included and comfortable. Pre-tour communications connect group members before departure. Activities are designed for easy participation whether you're naturally social or more reserved. Solo travelers often say they prefer the security and camaraderie of women only groups.
