Our Story
I am accompanying Bob and Esther to the Ekambareeshwara temple in Kanchipuram. Bob removes his footwear, and steps into the Mandapa of the temple. “This vibration!! One cannot experience it through visuals”, he remarks.
Lisa is travelling with us in Kutch to attend a day long embroidery workshop. Her instructor is a smiling Rebari lady. Both of them don’t know each other’s language, but succeed in communicating well enough to make the day productive. So much laughter & camaraderie during the learning process .
This is Curtainless travel that lets you live your India holiday like us, your hosts. We are as intrigued by India as you are. Our questions have given us some "back to basics” kind of answers. And we enjoy finding answers to your questions too. We learn more in this journey of self discovery.

Prasanna, Chennai
Shakti Holidays organised this amazing bespoke tour especially for quilters including workshops, tours of o cultural monuments, guides, amazing hotels, food and so much more. It was a completely immersive tour, all we need to do was be present. I highly recommend them if you want to enjoy a special experience and not your average run of the mill tour.
Vanita, Sydney
We really appreciated the time and effort you put in to planning our trip. It was very kind of you to check in with us as we moved from place to place. Your services will be enthusiastically recommended to all our friends who are planning to come your way.
