India is a land of excitement, passion and colour. Why not visit the historic cities of Northern India’s Golden Triangle – Delhi, Agra and Jaipur - with their world famous sights, such as the Taj Mahal and the Amer Fort. To see a different side of India, visit Kerala’s backwaters, and take a trip on a houseboat along the tranquil waterways.
Another popular combination is to visit the lively resort of Goa, with its European and Asian influences, with a stop in the cosmopolitan city of Mumbai, the gateway to India.
The energy and spirit that dances through India comes from the first explosion of patchouli incensed balmy air to the second or third bizarre glimpse of a cow ambling along the road on your wild rickshaw journey into Delhi. There’s that breathtaking first sighting of the pink city of Jaipur and a spectacular sunrise view of the Taj Mahal. India holidays are all encompassing – one moment mouth-watering street food in Mumbai, the next a gastronomic feast in Udaipur, one day a cacophony of vibrant market shopping, Hindu temples and sacred statues.
