Holiday Overview

The traditions of Indian textile crafts are some of oldest and diverse in the world. Gujarat has a rich cultural history, and the state produces a wide range of textiles that are intricately linked to its past. Join Karin Hellaby on a discovery of the textiles and crafts of Gujarat, see examples of local craftsmanship in embroidery, block printing, tie-dye, weaving and more. Participate in textile workshops with the locals and enjoy hand-stitching workshops with Karin. There will be plenty of sightseeing too, as we admire spectacular architecture, venture into the wilderness of Little Rann of Kutch’s Wild Ass Sanctuary on a jeep safari and wander through Ahmedabad’s Old Quarter.
