India Adoption Travel
Supported Every Step of the Way
Traveling to India to bring your child home is a moment families often describe as unforgettable. It’s a time filled with anticipation, emotion, and joy, and having experienced support makes all the difference.
During the 1-2 weeks you are in India, America World coordinates your travel and all required adoption appointments. An experienced in-country representative will accompany you throughout each adoption-related step — from visiting your child’s orphanage to attending embassy appointments and completing exit formalities.
Our team ensures that schedules, documentation, and logistics are handled smoothly, so families can focus on what matters most: meeting their child and beginning life together.
Optional Sightseeing & Cultural Experiences
Many families choose to enhance their time in India by adding optional sightseeing or cultural experiences before or after taking custody of their child. These experiences offer a meaningful opportunity to connect with your child’s heritage and create lasting family memories.
Fees for optional services vary based on the number of activities requested.
Sightseeing in Your Child’s State
Add sightseeing near your child’s orphanage either before or after taking custody. Our in-country staff can recommend popular landmarks, cultural sites, and family-friendly experiences in the region.
Shopping & Cultural Keepsakes
Shopping is a popular request for families. In-country staff can assist with:
Purchasing special mementos for your child
Shopping for traditional clothing or cultural items
Exploring local markets in your child’s state and/or Delhi
Sightseeing in Delhi
While in Delhi for final adoption appointments, families may choose to schedule sightseeing or shopping excursions. Our team can assist with planning activities that fit comfortably within your schedule.

“We had a great experience using America World’s sightseeing services! Abigail was fantastic — she took us to see the breathtaking Taj Mahal and also recommended a local market to shop, get henna, and explore on one of our other ‘free’ days. It was very refreshing for us to get out of the hotel room and take in the area's culture and beauty. Abigail made everything smooth and stress-free, and her helpfulness made each outing very enjoyable. Highly recommend!”
