Why discover a state by only whom you meet when you can also do it by what you eat?

Of all the ways to sample a state, the most memorable must surely be on your plate. And at Breakaway, we’ve curated some mouth-watering introductions for you across India. Are you ready to learn how to say “Hello” and “Could I have some more, please?” in different languages?

Our team has marched (on their stomachs) across India and unearthed families that proudly showcase their traditions on their plates. Nair tharavads, Mappila mansions, Lepcha bungalows, Rajput havelis – there isn’t a home among these that won’t stuff you full with their culinary heritage. And the best part? Every single home you live at has a lady of the house who runs cooking masterclasses specially for our guests.

So come, Breakaway. A state awaits. On your plate, where else?

We had a terrific time in general and Mary Anne specifically enjoyed interacting with local weavers observing and learning some techniques different from what she already knew. We will have no hesitation in recommending one of your tours to our family and friends. Some specifics: We were extremely happy with our driver Mohan. He was prompt and courteous and a very safe driver. When there was no guide with us he proved to be extremely knowledgeable in his own right and very protective of us when he drove us to restaurants for lunch (on days with no guide) and in the evening. (When there was a guide in the car he tended not to speak too much.) In general the guides were good. I would say highlights of the tour included the walk down the street in the village where everyone is a weaver (on the way to Pondicherry), the half day tour in Karaikudi with the guide from the Bangala that included the mansion houses and weaving center, the Meenakshi Temple and Chungadi saris in Madurai (your guide there was particularly good) and the next day with the same guide at the Gandhigram Center dying and weaving centers. I want to thank you again for everything you did before and during the tour to make our visit so successful. We had a lot of fun.

Travelling with Breakaway was a thoroughly professional experience. Their bespoke itineraries give access to aspects of India that are off the beaten path and fit my interests perfectly. Most important, as a woman traveling alone, I felt safe and in good hands every second of the way.

Thank you Sonia for being so accommodating and supportive through last-minute flight changes, ensuring our team was taken care of from the mountains of Uttarakhand to the seaside towns in Sri Lanka. Thank you!
