Once a French colony, Pondicherry seamlessly blends traditional Indian culture with French architecture. Few places showcase this colourful collision of two worlds more clearly than the Maison Perumal Pondicherry 🌱 🪷 🌿

Hello new followers!

My name is Ali and I run Trunk India 👋

I started this company in 2017, taking over from my mum who ran a tour company in India for over 20 years. As a kid I travelled with her many times and swiftly grew to love it as much as she did. ⁠

Trunk tours are small group adventures for women travellers. They are 2-week all inclusive trips designed to take my guests to the highlights of this vibrant, varied and enormously fun country. ⁠

I work closely with local guides, drivers, craftspeople and hoteliers to ensure that my guests have an immersive and authentic experience of India. We’ll drink lots of chai, eat delicious food, buy gorgeous, colorful, glittering, unique things, meet generous, knowledgeable and delightful people, have serene, joyful and hilarious interactions - I promise you a holiday that will stay with you forever. ⁠

All my upcoming tours are up on the Trunk website (click link in bio). Please reach out if you want more information. I’d love to host you on an adventure through incredible India one day! 🇮🇳

South India Tour - Day 5 & 6 Chettinad 🪷
What a gorgeous time in Chettinad! There were morning walks followed by South Indian filter coffee, fabric and basket shopping; we explored the stunning mansions of the Chettiars and saw how the famous Athangudi tiles are made. Oh, and plenty of time lounging by the pool as well!

South India Tour - day 2 & 3
A couple of days in the former French enclave of Pondicherry began with a visit to the Sacred Heart basilica, then then a stroll through fish and flower market. Next we shopped til we dropped in the boutiques and enjoyed private visit to the studio of renowned Pondicherry based designer to see where his fabulous clothes are created. We finished the day with dinner in the French quarter and a lively walk back to our hotel ✨

ABOUT TRUNK

Trunk is for travellers, not tourists.

We specialise in carefully putting together small groups of like-minded people and navigating them through the most exciting, colourful and complex country on earth.

Trunk is for people who like their travel to be unhurried but full of profound experiences; who want to see the sights, but then step off the beaten track to see the real India; who want to confront the raw exhilaration of Indian life by day and talk about it over a cocktail that evening.

Join us for the holiday of a lifetime, with people who may become friends for life.
