Our Mission
A journey built to give back to India
Shikhara Journeys exists to prove that luxury travel and national purpose are not in tension.
What We Stand For
Four Commitments
Promoting Indian Craftsmanship & Heritage
Every journey we build is designed to route travellers directly to the artisans, weavers and sculptors who keep India's temple-era crafts alive — placing sustained, dignified demand behind traditions that too often survive only as museum pieces.
Employment for Ex-Services Personnel
Our security escorts and lead chefs are drawn exclusively from the ranks of the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force — a standing commitment to give former officers a second career built on the same discipline and care they brought to their service.
Hospitality Excellence
We hold ourselves to a single, uncompromising standard across every coach, every kitchen and every escort — proving that Indian hospitality, delivered without shortcuts, belongs among the finest travel experiences in the world.
Catalysing Local Infrastructure
Each route we operate brings sustained, high-value footfall to towns and temple precincts that tourism has passed over — a quiet case, made journey by journey, for the roads, power and services these places deserve.
A Standing Invitation
We invite the partnership of the Ministry of Tourism and state tourism boards in building a model of heritage travel that pays its respects forward — to the craftsmen who built these sanctuaries, to the Services personnel who protect them today, and to the towns that have long deserved this attention.
