What Our Travellers Say

★★★★★

We booked a trip to Ladakh based on positive reviews on tripadvisor. It was a personal 7 nights 8 days trip. They asked us our preferences and came up with an itinerary and price with 3 or 4 star hotel options. The trip included leh, pangong tso, shyok,nubra valley, turtuk, alchi and travelling through high altitude snowy passes khardungla and changla and kargil (we added kargil). We went late june early july. It was beautiful and flowers were starting to come up, and also snowmelts. A bit scary in shyok as the road in places disappeared and we drove over stones and through water for a few kilometres. We saw marmot, wild donkey and free horses, yak and several birds. The mountains are majestic. The altitude does make you a bit breathless, none of us had any health condition and we felt it. Our local contact in leg provided by traeminent tours advised us on altitude sickness and he emphasised several times on contacting him if we ever felt unfortable beyond the usual symptoms, how much and when to sleep. We followed his instructions carefully. We also took diomax for tge altitude breathlessness the first night which helped but it makes you thirsty and gives you a headache so we stopped taking it after. For our stay in Pangong tso our Leh person Gurmeet told us to take an oxygen cylinder reason being its higher altitude and there are no hospitals. An oxygen cylinder has 3 hours worth of oxygen should you need to drive to a hospital. We considered the Rs 2,500 an insurance and we did feel more breathless at pangong. While we could have managed without oxygen the oxygen did help ease the tightness in our chest (maybe coming from hot humid sea level singapore we took probably longer to adapt). We chose the 3 star option and did not regret it. Most cases the rooms were spacious and had great views. At pangong tso we asked to upgrade to a room with a view for an additional Rs 6.6k per person we were 3, sharing a room so we paid Rs 19.8k we felt was steep but were told taxes are high and dinner was included. Our Rs 51k per person for the trip included an excellent calm careful and informative driver Jimme and a sturdy spacious vehicle, breakfast and in two places dinner. Jimme's playlist is also great so after our trip we asked him for it. We saw beautiful monastries at Alchi, Lamayuru, Diskit, moonland the impressive Indus, Shyok and Suru rivers which we drove along. Jagmohan our tour coordinator was helpful and accommodating of our requests to add Kargil. Over all an excellent trip and we were glad we chose Traeminent.  July, 2026

We recently completed a tour to Kashmir, Amritsar, Shimla, and Manali organised by Traeminent, and it was truly a fantastic experience from start to finish. The itinerary was very well planned, allowing us to comfortably explore each destination without feeling rushed. Kashmir was absolutely breathtaking — from the serene Dal Lake to the stunning landscapes of Gulmarg. The houseboat stay was a highlight. Amritsar added a spiritual dimension to the trip, with a seamless visit to the Golden Temple and Wagah Border. Shimla and Manali were equally memorable, offering beautiful mountain views, enjoyable local experiences, and well-coordinated sightseeing. The toy train ride in Shimla and the overall hill station experience were particularly special. The logistics throughout the trip were handled efficiently, transport was comfortable, hotels were well chosen, and the support from the Traeminent team was consistent and dependable. We always felt well taken care of. Overall, it was a smooth, enjoyable, and memorable journey. I would highly recommend Traeminent to anyone looking for a well-organised and enriching travel experience.

We have just returned from a trip to Arangabad, Hampi and Badami. I found TraEminent on Trustpilot and whatsapped them and got an immediate reply from Sunny, who listened to what we wanted to do then passed us to his colleague Prachi to organise our trip. Prachi sent suggestions of different hotels and also suggested we added Badami to our itinery, which was an excellent suggestion. She organised hotels, drivers, guides and internal flights. Our hotel vouchers and internal flight bar codes were sent to us via email. We paid for the trip in 3 installments, the final one being on the day we arrivec in India. Our contact once the trip was organised and whilst we were in India was Mukesh. Prachi also created a group Whatsapp for herself, Mukesh, my husband and myself. As the holiday neared the war in Iran started and up until the day we travelled we were not sure we would be able to travel and Mukesh was excellent in starting to secure refunds and vouchers. But fortunately on the day we were able to travel, although due to late setting off and extra travel time we missed our connection from Delhi to Aurangabad and had to travel early the next morning. I contacted Mukesh who rearranged the pickup from the airport. Mukesk kept in contact with us daily for the duration of the trip and informed us of each drivers and car details the day before the pick up. We had 2 drivers, Aleem for Aurangabad and Ram for Hampi and Badami, both were excellent and the cars were comfortable. Our guides were excellent and very knowledgeable. The hotels were exactley what we wanted and the intetnal flights with Indigo were ideal time wise. We had the best 10 day tour. Thank you TraEminent for you help, patience and communication. We would definately recommend using TraEminent and would use them again. Thank you Prachi and Mukesh, you were great. March, 2026.

May trip in India

May trip in India

Planning a May trip in India is an excellent choice as it offers sunshine, cool mountain air and calm landscapes. You can relax in misty hills, enjoy peaceful backwaters and green valleys glowing under the sun. Whether you are a solo traveler or with your partner or family, it is the perfect time to travel and unwind.

 

Why May is Ideal for a Refreshing Holiday in India?

May is a wonderful time to explore India, especially for families, nature lovers and honeymooners. The weather stays clear which makes it easy to travel to hills, forests and beaches. Many people plan vacations this month because schools are closed and the roads to mountain regions are open. While the plains feel warm, hill stations like Shimla and Darjeeling remain cool and welcoming. Coastal areas like Goa offer fresh breezes and relaxing seaside stays. Whether you are into adventure or culture or peace, May offers you a perfect mix of everything. It is also a great time for short breaks like a 4 day trip in India in May, where you can relax, enjoy local food and natural beauty.

 

How the Weather Changes Across India in May?

India in May has a mix of warm sunshine, cool hills and breezy coasts. Here’s what you can excerpt from India’s different regions in May:

East India

In May, East India enjoys a mix of cool hills and warm plains. Darjeeling, Gangtok and Kalimpong are great for a calm and misty escape. The plains of West Bengal and Odisha get humid but coastal towns like Puri and Digha feel better with sea winds. This is also the time when Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh start turning lush with early rains. May is the perfect time to explore greenery and scenic valleys.

West India

West India is usually hot and dry in May, especially in Mumbai, Pune and Ahmedabad. Still, hill stations like Mahabaleshwar and Lonavala stay cool and are popular for short trips such as a 3 days trip in India in May. The beaches of Goa are less crowded and full of relaxed vibes before the rains arrive.

Central India

Central India gets quite hot in the month of May with temperatures around 40°C in Madhya Pradesh and Chattisgarh. But this is a perfect time for wildlife lovers. National parks like Kanha, Pench and Bandhavgarh offer great chances to spot tigers and other animals near waterholes. Early mornings and evenings are cooler for safaris. You can also visit stunning temples and historical sites like Khajuraho Temples and Orchha Fort for a short getaway.

North India

May gets warm in North India but the hill stations like Nainital, Shimla and Mussoorie stay cool and comfortable. The plains in Delhi, Amritsar and Agra can get very hot, often above 40°C. This month is great for a trip to the hills or a scenic road drive through Himachal and Uttarakhand. Snow starts melting in Ladakh, opening routes for travelers who want to see its beautiful mountains and peaceful monasteries.

South India

South India stays warm in May but is still a lovely place to visit. Coastal areas like Goa, Tamil Nadu and Kerala have pleasant sea breezes that make the weather easy to enjoy. Hill stations such as Munnar, Coorg and Ooty are cool and perfect for a 5 days trip in India in May. Short summer showers make the surroundings fresh and beautiful which add charm to tea gardens, waterfalls and backwater views.
