India makes a strong claim to be the most exciting and rewarding travel destination in the world. From the exhilarating pace of life in its colourful and vibrant cities to its exquisite temples and superb scenery, few visitors ever leave disappointed.
History and culture, iconic sights, delectable food and changing landscapes; from the Himalaya to crumbling desert forts, and from national parks towards the lush south – luxury holidays to India invariably feel like a visit to more than one country.
India’s landscapes are as fantastically varied as its cultural traditions. From the snow-dusted peaks of the Himalaya to the sun-splashed beaches of the tropical south, the country has a bounty of outdoor attractions. You can scout for big jungle cats on scenic wildlife safaris, paddle in the shimmering waters of coastal retreats, take blood-pumping treks high in the mountains, or simply inhale pine-scented air on meditative forest walks. Among all these natural treasures is a wealth of architectural gems, from serene temples rising out of pancake-flat plains to crumbling forts peering over plunging ravines.
Indian cuisine is a delicious hodgepodge of regional specialities, each with its own traditional preparation techniques and presentation – from carefully marinated meats and competing flavours of talis (plate meals) to simple vegetarian curries and deep sea delicacies. Spices are at the heart of Indian cooking, and the country is also known for its tempting street food, with vendors selling everything from spicy samosas and kebabs to chilled kulfi (ice cream) and lassi (yogurt drinks).
