Tushita works at the intersection of curation and destination management to create bespoke immersive experiences in India. With our extensive network of locals we introduce travellers to the diversity that stands out in every nook of the country. We work with partners who focus on curating authentic and responsible representations of culture, while acknowledging that tourism sustains households across the country
For nearly 5 decades, since the days that Jan began mapping the mountains of Ladakh, Tushita has charted new pathways in tourism. From a personalized approach towards journeys to working with locals, practices that have been a part of Tushita since the inception have become a global standard for responsible travel.
Portraying India by Tushita
We marvel at India with you. From Ladakh, where Tushita was anointed by a Buddhist monk in 1977, to Tamil Nadu, where we worked with locals to showcase one of the oldest cultures in the world, we are partners in your journey to discover our part of the world. In our monthly newsletter, Portraying India, we explore perceptions of India, inspired by those who represent it at its most authentic.
Goa with Charles Correa
In this newsletter, we feature Charles Correa who was touted as India’s Greatest Architect by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). He worked and wrote prolifically throughout his life to build an appreciation for indigenous building material, architectural designs and mythical philosophy.
Hyderabad with Sarojini Naidu
Sarojini Naidu was a woman who, in the age of charismatic men, carved a niche for herself with her words. Lovingly called the ‘Nightingale of India’, for the lyrical quality of her literature and her great skill as an orator, she’s remembered fondly today as a feminist icon.
Jaipur with Maharani Gayatri Devi
‘A Dream in Sari and Jewels’, ‘The Most Beautiful Woman on Earth’, ‘Maharani of Jaipur’—there is no dearth of titles to describe Maharani Gayatri Devi. A remarkable leader, who lived a life full of love for people and the greatest treasures money could buy.
