Karvansarai

Karvansarai is a travel design company where we, Tara Lal and Alessandra Sikand, share with you our passion for exploring our incredible world, with our personal photography and stories, and get you dreaming and inspired for your next adventure! What do we do? Travel Design – drawing on our first-hand knowledge, many years of working in the luxury hospitality industry in various continents and extensive network of travel specialists, we personally plan with you where to go, what to experience, who to meet & especially what to eat! Blog – a magazine-style editorial with our latest discoveries, recommendations and travel stories. Trips – a carefully vetted selection of one off specialised small group trips with fixed departures. Products – all sorts of cool items by local artisans found on our travels. Destinations & Experiences– a glimpse through our kaleidoscope of places and experiences that we love! Expeditions – we passionately wander in unfamiliar places to learn, expand our mind, push boundaries, connect with others and challenge our ideas! We take that one and one more turn around just one more corner to discover who or what’s there and we share our discoveries with you. An opportunity to wander with us! Our Philosophy Wherever we travel, however long or short, we like to truly live a place and become a part of its fabric, through the people we meet and the stories they tell. Inspired by Italo Calvino’s ‘Invisible Cities’ there are so many different perspectives from which to experience any place. We share with you our own kaleidoscope, travelling as we would, based on a true story …our story. We encourage all of our readers to explore and discover – build their own relationships, plant their own roots and create their own unforgettable memories with a little bit of inspiration and guidance from us.
