Telling India’s Stories — One Destination at a Time
The Journey Begins
I’m Sharukh Bamboat, an Indian travel storyteller, and along with my wife Sarah, we explore India’s lesser-told stories at Travel India Destinations. Our story began in 2011, when we married. Five years later, we launched this travel website with one goal in mind: to document the soul of India beyond clichés.
When we started, travel blogging was already booming. But we weren’t interested in becoming just another couple ticking off countries. Our heart has always belonged to India — its layered history, rich culture, local eats, and vibrant streets.
India Is Our Canvas
Unlike other travel couples who circle the globe, our lens stays focused on India alone.
- Historic towns and offbeat destinations
- Local markets and hidden food joints
- Heritage walks, treks, and everyday cultural gems
Our aim? To help travelers discover authentic, layered experiences — not just landmarks.
“We don’t just travel — we tell India’s stories, one town at a time.”
Real Moments, Real Stories
We travel slow. Explore deeply. Write honestly.
Our journey has taken us from exploring Mumbai’s old cinema halls to walking through Mumbai’s Ramadan food streets, and from Lonavala vs Mahabaleshwar comparisons to monsoon getaways in Madhya Pradesh. These stories aren’t polished for Instagram — they’re meant to inspire thoughtful travel, spark curiosity, and support small businesses that deserve the spotlight.

Why Travel India Destinations Exists
India’s diversity runs deeper than guidebooks and glossy brochures.
At Travel India Destinations, we explore its languages, traditions, architecture, street food, historic bylanes — and everything in between. We tell stories the mainstream often misses, with an eye for local detail and cultural respect.
“Every post we write is a piece of India, seen through our eyes — and shared with yours.”
