Incredible India 2025!

Join Pickleball Organized Adventures for the trip of a lifetime to Incredible India! As we journey through this amazing country, we will have professional pickleball clinics, organized play with locals and fun round-robin events. Our unique adventure will take us to the exotic cities of Mumbai, Udaipur, Jaipur and Agra. This is a very special trip for Krishna as she gets to share her heritage and culture with her students and friends!

In the lively city of Mumbai, filled with rich history and culture, we will see all the major sights during two half-day excursions, including the Gateway of India, Kala Ghoda Art District, Hanging Gardens, Bandra Fort, Portuguese Hamlets, and much more. We will also be treated to a special “behind-the-scenes” tour from a local, and a Bollywood experience and dinner! From Mumbai, we will fly to Udaipur where we will visit the famous City Palace, tour the historic old city, take a boat ride on beautiful Lake Pichola, and experience a local dance show. 

From Udaipur, we will fly to Jaipur, city of magical lights! Here we will tour the famous Amber Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the local markets of the old city, and all the popular sights that capture the history, heritage and local character of Jaipur. We will enjoy some shopping time at unique boutiques, and experience a Jaipur by Night adventure on open-air jeeps. We will round out Jaipur with an exotic wildlife safari visit to the Jhalana Amagarh Leopard Reserve. Our final two days will take us to magical Agra, where we'll visit Keoladeo National Park on a rickshaw adventure, and of course the stunning Taj Mahal!
