SOLD OUT! In Spring 2027, a small group of textile travellers will experience moments of stillness at Dal Lake, where the mountains stand as silent sentinels over shimmering waters.

They will reflect on the journey of one of the world’s most coveted fibres, pashmina. A story that starts in high-altitude nomadic pastures and flows through the hands of expert spinners to the looms of master weavers in high end ateliers. One, a life so simple and rugged. The other, a life of haute couture and exacting beauty.

Our travellers will reflect on a new way of life while questioning theirs.

Online talk : “The Hands Behind Pashmina”. Learn about herders, spinners, weavers, and embroiderers’ hands behind the almost entirely manual process before you can drape a real pashmina across your shoulders.
Monday 24 Aug. at 7.30pm eastern. Free with registration. https://www.eyhotours.com/events-at-eyho
+ tour launch Kashmir-Ladakh’s Pashmina Trail in Spring 2027.

New tour alert - Kenya : Beyond the Guidebook.

Experience Nairobi’s "textile mountain" and bustling second-hand clothing markets. Meet contemporary innovators and activists.
Move to the bush for traditional craftsmanship and ancestral significance of beadwork of the Samburu people, as well as safari in Samburu.
Lastly, learn about Kanga coastal textile traditions while soaking in the charm of the Indian Ocean coast. Feb-March 2027
