built from scratch for one night only - a true money can’t buy experience
Money can't buy. Once-in-a-liftetime. Wow.
How often do these phrases come up in a client brief? And how often is it truly a one-off experience? Incent India were tasked with that very challenge, and they delivered. Click here for a short video showing the results of their labour, and read on below.
As if building a campsite with huts and comfortable beds for 150 guests for one night only wasn't enough, the client had a list of non-negotiables which presented their own challenges - three hot meals, hot showers, chilled Champagne in proper glass stems (plastic was banned), source mainly local materials and keep to the realistic cost estimate initially set out.
Before building could even commence, a tribal village was temporarily relocated to the site. ThIs would ensure the wild elephants would become accustomed to the human presence here and would therefore keep away, along with additional security measures put in place. Finally, a hanging bridge had to be reconstructed as it was the only access point to the site.
Seven site inspections and seventy days later, a fleet of twenty-five jeeps meandered up from the plains of Tamil Nadu, through the scenic Chinar Wildlife Sanctuary. They reached the finished campsite at the 1,000 m summit, surrounded by sandalwood forest and tea plantations.
A continental lunch with soup, an array of salads and French cheese boards was served on arrival. The group returned from sipping tea at a nearby plantation to find the site transformed for a magical, torch-lit evening feasting on tenderloin with all the trimmings, and of course that chilled Champagne. The troops gathered round the campfire to enjoy an Indian shadow puppet show and a modern take on Kathakali before retiring to their huts.
After hot showers and a hearty breakfast the following morning, it was already time to start dismantling the camp.
The campsite's life was short-lived, but the impact and the memories created by Incent India will last a lifetime.
off the beaten track at amanbagh
Meaning 'peaceful garden', Amanbagh is an oasis in the whisper-quiet Aravali hills. Bustling Jaipur is only 90-minutes away and it's 100 km to Jaipur airport, but here, you feel worlds away from anywhere.
The countryside surrounding Amanbagh reveals the ruins of an ancient empire embedded in a starkly beautiful landscape. The 17th-century township of Bhangarh - abandoned just a generation after its completion - sits nearby, as does the centuries-old village, fort and temple of Ajabgarh, which can be reached by foot or camel from the resort. Sariska National Park, home to tigers, jaguars, sambar deer and more, is a short drive away, as is the temple town of Neelkanth, with more than 80 temples encircled on all sides by mountains.
Back at the resort, each of the 40 Suites and Pavilions has a private courtyard or terrace and a deep soaking bathtub carved from green Udaipur marble. Dine in the elegant pool-side restaurant, or make your way through tall elephant grass and bamboo to Jhilmil Baada, a private outdoor dining platform built on the very location where royal cooks once created feasts from the hunt. This is beyond luxury, and truly off the beaten track. Come experience it with Incent India.
Move over 007. It ain't no more about 2 Olives and shaken but not stirred. It's all about Ginger, turmeric and black currant. There's an embarrassing choice of Martini's @tajlakepalace, Udaipur. India. @tajlakepalace #incenttoursindia #travelscopeindia #thelakepalaceudaipur #incentindia
