At Samarth, we bring these joys and benefits to our community of seniors who believe that travel is no longer about tight itineraries, endless queues, and adrenaline rushes. We have taken a more mindful approach to travel: one that allows you to experience, savour, explore, connect, or perhaps just relax at the pace that works best for you, and responds to your requirements with customised plans. You even have the option of a dedicated, resourceful travelling companion to take charge and ensure the all-around attention that you have come to expect from Samarth.

Here are Samarth’s suggestions of places to travel to as an older adult in the coming festive months!

From national wildlife parks to historical havelis, Rajasthan is your one-stop destination for it all! Culture and nature come together when we talk about Shekhawati and Ranthambore.
