Our story
From the tents of royal India to tented villas for the world's finest resorts.
GargTent began in 1990 as a family workshop in Ambala, North India. For years we made traditional Indian Raj tents for event companies in more than twenty countries, from the UK, Germany and the USA to Australia, the UAE, the Maldives and Kenya.
That experience with canvas, structure and finish now goes into one thing only: luxurious tented villas for five-star resorts, safari lodges and luxury camps. We design, make and install them for clients in India and abroad, including projects in Greece and Thailand.
GargTent is a unit of Garg International, and it is still run by the family that started it.
