Kerala, at the pace of the water
Alleppey houseboats, Kumarakom mornings and a coast that is in no hurry.
How booking with us works, in four numbers
Where we take people
Pick a region and we will send you what a week there actually looks like.
What you actually get
An itinerary written for your dates
We start from what you want to see and how long you have, not from a brochure with your name pasted on it.
One person owns your trip
The person who plans it is the person who answers when you message. No ticket numbers, no handover.
Everything on WhatsApp
Itinerary, quote, vouchers and day-of updates land in the same chat you already use.
Pay 25% to confirm
The balance is due 14 days before you travel. The dates are held from the moment the deposit lands.
A cancellation policy in writing
100% back at 30 days, 50% at 15, 25% at 7. On the quote, before you pay.
Food you can actually eat
We ask about vegetarian, Jain and allergy requirements at booking and pass them to every hotel and driver.
How a trip comes together
Tell us the dates and who is coming
A message with your rough dates, how many of you, and what you do not want to do is enough to start.
We send a day-by-day plan and a price
Written for your group, with what is included and what is not spelled out. Change it as many times as you like.
Confirm with 25%
Hotels, transport and permits get booked the same day. You get the confirmations, not just our word for it.
Settle the balance 14 days out
Vouchers, driver details and check-in times come to your WhatsApp as one bundle.
Travel — and message us if anything shifts
Flights move and weather turns. The same person who planned it picks up the phone.

About RK Holidays
RK Holidays Tours & Travels plans trips across India and a short list of places abroad we know well enough to be useful about. We are a small team, which is the point: the person who writes your itinerary is the person who answers your messages at 11pm the night before you fly. We do not run fixed departures you have to squeeze yourself into. You tell us your dates, who is travelling and what you would rather skip, and we build around that. Sometimes that means telling you a destination is wrong for the season, or that four days is not enough. We would rather say it before you book than after. Everything is quoted in writing — what is included, what is not, and what happens if you need to cancel. No package is confirmed until you have seen all three.
- ✓Itineraries built around your dates, not a departure calendar
- ✓One named person from first message to last day
- ✓Inclusions, exclusions and cancellation terms on every quote
- ✓Vegetarian, Jain and allergy requirements passed to every supplier
- ✓Domestic and a short, honest list of international destinations

Before you ask
How far ahead should I book?
We take bookings from 7 days to 365 days ahead. For Kashmir in summer, Rajasthan in winter and anywhere over a long weekend, earlier is genuinely cheaper — not a sales line, just how hotel rates move.
How much do I pay to confirm?
25% of the trip cost. That is what books the hotels and transport. The balance is due 14 days before you travel.
What if I have to cancel?
Cancel 30+ days before departure and you get 100% back. At 15 days it is 50%, at 7 days it is 25%. Inside that, suppliers have already been paid and we cannot recover it. The same ladder is printed on your quote.
Can I change the itinerary after booking?
Usually yes, and there is no charge from us for re-planning. What we cannot always undo is a hotel already confirmed on a non-refundable rate — we will tell you which those are before you pay.
What is the smallest group you will run?
2 travellers. Our published packages are costed for up to 12; beyond that we quote separately so the per-person price is honest rather than averaged.
Do you handle vegetarian, Jain or allergy requirements?
Yes, and we ask at booking rather than hoping you mention it. It goes to the hotels, the houseboat kitchen and the driver, not just onto our file.
Are flights included?
Only when the package says so. Most domestic packages are land-only, because people usually have points, preferred airlines or different departure cities. Ask and we will quote them in.
What is not included?
Every quote carries an exclusions list — typically airfare unless stated, personal expenses, camera fees at monuments, and anything you add on the road. If it is not written down, assume it is not included and ask us.
Who do I talk to while I am travelling?
The same person who planned the trip, on the same WhatsApp thread. Not a rota and not a call centre.
Do you do international trips?
A short list of them, Bali among the strongest. We would rather do five destinations properly than list fifty we have never visited.
Tell us roughly what you have in mind
Dates, how many of you, and where you fancy. We will come back with a plan and a price — no obligation.
Not sure where to go yet? Tell us your dates and we will suggest three options.
