India is rich in tradition and colourful cultures. This vast sub-continent is a mystical land that offers an array of unforgettable experiences and casts a magical spell on its visitors.
Northern India is home to the capital Delhi, a city brimming with tombs, forts, mosques and bazaars. Just three hours from Delhi, Agra boasts three UNESCO World Heritage Sites including the magnificent white mausoleum of the Taj Mahal by the River Yamuna.
Northwest India shelters Rajasthan, the legendary land of Rajas and Maharajas and the epitome of romantic India with its sand dunes, dusty deserts, ornate palaces and imposing forts.
Coastal India enjoys a relaxed atmosphere; here palm-fringed tropical beaches slope gently towards clear blue waters. Goa’s Portuguese history is reflected in its cuisine and its Catholic churches. Its laidback air and hippy markets remain long after the hippies have left. Further south, Kerala’s secluded backwaters may be experienced at a leisurely pace from a wooden houseboat.
