RAJAKKAD ESTATE, TAMIL NADU
FOOTHILLS OF TAMIL NADU
It’s an impression that does not deceive. The Rajakkad Estate is a place apart in the foothills of Tamil Nadu in Southern India – a world of remote hill stations and rich green coffee plantations. A place of astonishing natural beauty, dense natural forests and sweeping views provided by the Palani Hills.
Approach the Estate along an avenue of royal palms and red flowered flamboyants and you realise you’re arriving somewhere special – Rajakkad’s Pallam Palace is a symphony of interlocking carved beams and screens, with covered walkways leading to quiet courtyards, serene pools, library and dining room.

“MONGOLIA STOLE MY HEART – A JOURNEY I’ll NEVER FORGET”
It was one of the best trips of my life. The itinerary you crafted for us was absolutely perfect; I wouldn’t have changed a thing. What made it even more special was the incredible team who looked after us. Edda was fantastic, and the two drivers we had for the Orkhon Valley and Gobi sections of the trip were possibly the best I’ve ever had.
“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with The Ultimate Travel Company and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.
“TAILORED TO PERFECTION”
Our holiday in Thailand was superb – custom-built exactly to our preferences. The Ultimate Travel Company were super attentive, listening carefully to what we wanted and designing an itinerary and hotel selection that really delivered. Even while we were away, they responded quickly to a query. A brilliant experience from start to finish.
