Music & Dance Tours in India

The rich and varied music and dance tradition in India is born out of complex interactions between different races and cultures over several thousand years. While North India’s classical dance, Kathak, is renowned for its elaborate footwork, south India’s Kathakali is admired for its minute movements of eyebrows and eyeballs. While Hindustani classical music is noted for its melody, the Carnatic music is extremely soulful. There are umpteen forms of regional folk music and dance, each of them creations of different socio-economic setups and traditions.

We design music and dance tours as per your specific Interests. You may choose to follow a particular form of music or dance or survey the best that India has to offer. We promise to take you behind the scenes at traditional music and dance centres around the country, help you get familiar with the fundamentals and techniques of various art forms, and connect you with real people.
