Having Nicky as the travel leader was an absolute dream!
Her passion and love for India runs deep and shone through in every moment of our splendid adventure. Her dedication to the planning of the trip was evident in every well thought out aspect of the trip. From the snacks/drinks/tissues in our travel cars, to the relationships with the guides & the hosts of the amazing properties we stayed at and visited. I didn’t feel a moment of stress or unsafe on the entire trip.
I loved the way Nicky considered each experience. We were able to really have some true moments of wonder and, before there was overwhelm, we would be back at our beautiful accommodation sipping G&Ts. Or on a boat on the Ganges watching dolphins and the sunset. Or gasping as the Himalayas revealed themselves through the clouds while we sipped our morning cups of tea. Or the flower markets in Calcutta –like no other flower markets in the world. A day didn’t go by where I didn’t say WOW.
Nicky also held the space within the group so beautifully that we’ve all come away from the trip staying in touch and already had multiple gatherings since. It was a heart opening, eye opening, unforgettable holiday. I would do it again in a heartbeat. But only with Nicky as my guide.

My trip to India with Nicole Court and her co-host Kinny Sandhu was just magical.
Their knowledge and care and kindness for us all was outstanding.
I have been to India many times but never like this. A small group of like-minded travellers, some were travelling to India for the first time. Everything was organised so it was hassle free.
At times India can overwhelm but there was a great mix of excursions and relaxation. We stayed in luxury small hotels and palaces which were divine.
I cannot recommend this trip highly enough, or India. India’s people, culture, customs are intoxicating and with Nicole and Kinny you are immersed fully.
Thank you so much.

Nicole’s intricate detailed itinerary allowed us the privilege of experiencing unique insights into the personal lives of those connected to art and culture.
Traversing through the backstreets, inhaling the flower market scenes, witnessing artisans at work, idyllic sunset drinks and dances on a Hooghly River barge…
Nicole certainly gets the balance right: exploring and seeing the essence of each place, as well has having some peaceful times in nature. So many highlights – the sound of a conch shell mixed with the aromatic essences that are burnt with each ceremonial welcoming;
our hosts, Nicole and Kinny; Nicky's “on-ground” experienced network, all giving us a sense of inclusiveness and fine hospitality.
Indeed, trust is the word to have as one’s mantra, allowing the serendipitous adventure to unfold.

Nicky took us all on a magic carpet ride through Calcutta and India’s North-East on her Design Tour in January 2023.
I have been to India many times, and I have been on a lot of group tours – this was one of the best I have ever been on. I loved it. I travelled with an old friend and made lots of lovely new friends, too. We met so many wonderful people. The food was delicious, the hotels beautiful and we had lots of insider experiences that opened up a part of India that I hadn’t experienced before.
Kinny and Nicky were wonderful hosts and showed us things we would never have discovered ourselves, in a less travelled part of India. Every day there was a new surprise. There was a lot of laughing and we have all stayed in touch since we got back. Thanks for the wonderful memories, Nicky.

Travelling with ‘dietary requirements’ was not a problem with Nicky as our leader.
She ensured that all our accommodation chefs were warned in advance and I never ever had an upset stomach.
This is a small example of the attention to detail and care Nicky takes in planning her tours. Not to mention the wonderful places and people we saw, and accommodation we stayed in.
I highly recommend
Nicky’s Design Tour.
Karen Robinson, Sydney
I can’t recommend the magic that Nicky weaves into her design tours enough.
Everything is catered for and thought of. We had an amazing experience and a wonderful time. We were overwhelmed with all that India and the Design Tour offered – from spiritually uplifting experiences, to humbling experiences, to cuisine that tantalised the tastebuds.
