AHILYA FORT, MADHYA PRADESH

ABSOLUTELY TIMELESS

Ahilya – a remarkable hotel in a 250 year old fort, in a town that has been inhabited for 4000 years, beside a sacred river that is absolutely timeless.

If you want to absorb the essence of India there is no better place to stay than in a fort that dates back to the 1760s, in Maheshwar – one of Madhya Pradesh’s oldest, continuously inhabited towns – on the banks of the sacred Narmada River.

Make the Ahilya Fort your choice during your luxury, tailor-made holiday to India and you’ll be sleeping in a guest room that combines traditional India with modern design – or in a romantic tent with its own pool and terrific river views. And during the day you’ll be able to visit towns like Islamic Mandu, the fabulous temples of Baneshwar and Omkareshwar, or cruise gently down the sacred river in a traditional wooden boat. To name but a few ways of experiencing India.

Testimonial 5
“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”
Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. 91ºÚÁÏÍø gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate†really is “91ºÚÁÏÍøâ€!

“YES TO ULTIMATE – AND YES AGAIN”
This was our second big trip with 91ºÚÁÏÍø – and we’d happily use them again and again. The customer service is excellent: they really listen to what you want and make it happen. Their on-the-ground support, wherever you’re headed, is just as strong. Everything was seamless. Highly recommend.
