India is a fabulously diverse country topographically, with the snow-capped Himalayas in the north to the tropical beaches of the south, with desert, forest, and sprawling cities in between, there’s so much to sink your teeth into. Discover the floating Jah Mahal Palace in Jaipur, Agra’s fort or rituals that take place in mesmerising Varanasi on the banks of the Ganges. Cruise around slanting coconut palms in the backwaters of Kerala or star gaze in Thar Desert – you might have to plan more than one holiday to see it all.
Spirituality is deeply engrained in the consciousness of all Indians and you can see this at every turn, from the sacred cows that wander the streets to holy men in Varanasi. Catch one of India’s multitude of festivals to capture the essence of this country. Diwali, the festival of light in November and Holi, the festival of colour in March are two of the most spectacular.

“The feeling you have once you go away on your own is worth all the nerves before! I was so very anxious the first time but now having done it 4 times, I love it!”
