More information about India

A holiday to India  is a journey through a complex history, a colorful culture and a varied landscape which stretches from the snowy caps of the mighty  Himalayas  to the luscious coast of the abundant  Indian   Ocean . The  6th  largest economy in the world and home to a staggering  3 billion  people,  India  holds within its territory some of the worlds most mythical and iconic sights and cities such as the eternal  Taj Mahal ,  Varanasi, the Ganges River,  the lush beaches of  Goa  and  Rishikesh,  the world centre of  yoga,  not to mention the lively capital of  Delhi . This vast country shares borders with  China, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan, Bangladesh  and  Myanmar,  and its immense coastline, stretching for more than  7,500 kilometers , sits on the  Indian Ocean,  the  Bay of Bengal  and the  Arabian Sea.  Today,  India  is divided into  29 states  and  7 union territories.

Nature in India

Lovers of nature are spoilt for choice when they take a  tour in India . With habitat zones ranging from  tropical rainforests  to  alpine forests  and  deserts ,  India  is home to a plethora of endemic plant and wildlife species, the former of which contributes to its strong culture of herbal medicine and  Ayurvedic  practice.  India  is famed for its varied and exotic wildlife including  Bengal tigers, lions, Indian  and  white giraffe ,  leopards  and  snow leopards , the majestic  Indian elephant  and the mighty  Indian rhinoceros.

The country’s fantastically diverse wildlife is preserved in more than 120 national parks, although it is common to see wild animals roaming the city streets. Supporting such a wide array of wildlife, India is home to a range of geographical regions and landscapes, the most iconic being the  Thar Desert , the snowy  Himalayas , the lush tropical backwaters of  Kerala  and the unbelievable metropolises of  Mumbai, Kolkata,  and  Delhi.

History of India

With a history as vast as its size and stretching back as far as  5 millennia , a  package holiday in India  will open your eyes to a fascinating mix of traditions, cultures, and religions. Often called the ‘oldest religion in the world’,  Hinduism  is the largest religion in  India,  and across the centuries it has laid the foundations for the country’s culture and way of life. It’s founding texts, known as the ‘ vedas’ , were composed in  India  between  2000  and  5000 BC , marking the beginning of  Vedic Culture , a key period in the northwest territories of the country.

During these ancient times in the central  Ganges Plain , the territory was divided into  16 kingdoms,  known as  Mahajanapagas.  By the  4th  and  5th centuries , the Golden Age of the  Gupta Empire  had unified much of the  Indian Subcontinent  and encouraged progress through a practice of  Hinduism  based on devotion rather than ritual which prompted a proliferation of arts, architecture, and  Sanskrit  literature. As the centuries moved forward so  Muslim  dynasties and the famous  Mughal Empire  left their mark on the story of  India.

During the  Mughal  era, from the  16th-19th century , popular monuments such as the  Taj Mahal ,  Humayun's Tomb ,  Fatehpur Sikri , the  Red Fort,  and the  Agra Fort , were constructed and reflected the artistic collaboration between both  Persian  and  Indian  architectural styles. The  East India Company  and the establishment of the  British Raj  also began in this era and its authority would continue until  1947  when  Indian  independence was declared. In  1950 , a secular and democratic government was established marking the new era of modern India. Today, the colors, rituals, spirituality and vibrant culture of  India  are known and admired worldwide, so a  package holiday to India  is the best choice for a full experience of the wonders of the country.

Indian culture

The world’s most populous country,  India  is known for its rich culture which varies from region to region. The official language is  Hindi , although there are lots of regional languages that are widely spoken and  English  is the main language in which education and business are communicated. Religion is an important part of life in  India  and although  Hinduism  is the leading faith,  Islam, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Christianity  and ancient  Zoroastrianism  all contribute to the melting pot of culture and rituals.

With a complex cultural catalog of beliefs and practices, concepts such as  karma, dharma  and the widely popular practice of  yoga,  all originate from  India.  Ancient languages such as  Sanskrit  and  Sangam , are considered important pillars of culture in the country, although  performing arts  and  music  are at the center of India’s vibrant heart. Dances often act out myths, legends, and religious teachings and are an unmissable sight on a  holiday to India.

In recent years the  Indian  film industry, sometimes known as ‘ Bollywood’ , has gained recognition worldwide for its brilliant mix of modern and traditional values, opening up an insight into today’s India to viewers around the globe.  Family values  are another important pillar in everyday  Indian  life, with a multi-generational patriarchal structure being the most common structure of family life. It is also common for consensual arranged marriages to be organized for the younger generations. Traditional dress is a highly recognizable part of  Indian  culture, seen in the colorful fabrics and patterns of the  ‘saris’  and  ‘cholis ’ often irresistible to visitors on  holiday in India,  who cannot resist buying the beautiful textiles to take home with them.

From the immortal deserts of Rajasthan to the sleepy backwaters of Kerala and spiritual ghats of Varanasi, India is a must-visit destination for all intrepid travelers. If you dream of having your eyes opened to a different way of life, to unbelievable devotion, to the most vibrant colors of the spring Holi festival and to the smiles and friendliness of the local people, a  package tour of India  will deliver these dreams to you.

India is a large country with very diverse landscapes and climate zones with varying weather patterns from region to region. The winters are warm and pleasant, summers are very hot and extremely humid and the monsoon season, which brings spurts of heavy rainfall and tropical storms. April, May, October, and November are the hottest months of the year, and June through September are the wettest months being it is monsoon season throughout the entire country. The most popular tourist season runs from October through March when the weather is at its best throughout most of the country. If traveling during the high season it is recommended to book in advance as many accommodations and transportation become sold out quickly. The south of India sits nearest to the equator with warmer temperatures throughout the year. The average temperatures stay at 72 F or higher with the highest temps in May and June, with 93F for daily highs. December is a great month to hit up the beaches when at the same time there is snow in the mountainous regions. For more information, check out: Best Time to Visit India

India — Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

A trip to India is a bombardment on your senses. The country introduces you to all kinds of sights, sounds and smells and it can be a bit difficult to take in everything the very first day. The only way to explore India is to be patient and give it some time. You feel the glaring lack of privacy, but you also come to fall in love with the fascinating beauty all around you. From a rich culture that dates back centuries to ancient archeological ruins that still stand in all their glory, from glittering temples to elaborate forts and palaces, India is a dream you never wish to wake up from.

The country has a long and colorful religious history and is famous for its celebrations and festivals. Irrespective of which time you choose to visit, you always have a festival to become a part of. And it is not just about exploring temples and worshiping deities. You can also rediscover yourself at one of those yoga ashrams scattered all over the country. People have been visiting India for decades and still find themselves falling in love with its culture, architectural riches and arts that easily rival the best of Italian renaissance.

Tour Highlights

• Stare in awe at the majestic Taj Mahal
• Explore the intricate artwork and ancient culture hidden in the Ajanta Caves
• Take part in the colourful Holi festival in Vrindavan
• Discover the famous pink walls and 953 windows of the Hawa Mahal in Jaipur
• Ride across Dai Lake in Srinagar on an old wooden boat called Shikara
• Stroll through the tea fields of Darjeeling

Travel Tips

• Even if you’re a seasoned traveller, get ready for a culture shock. Heavily populated India is incredibly busy in terms of crowds, sights and sounds. Take it slow and be open minded on your India tour.
• Learn about common scams before setting off on your India holiday. A quick internet search will tell you the most frequent scams and how best to avoid them on your travels.
• Perhaps surprisingly for one of the world’s tech capitals, fast internet can be hard to find in India, particularly outside the country's largest cities. Consider buying a local sim card so you’re always connected.
• Have no worries about learning Hindi, English is widely spoken in India. You’ll also see it on most road signs, so navigation is relatively easy.
• Women, in particular, should opt for loose-fitting clothing. Tight or revealing outfits may generate unwanted male attention. However, no matter what you wear, Western travellers should be prepared for unwanted attention.

Escorted India Tour

My 15 day Escorted Tour of India with UncleSam Holidays met and surpassed my expectations. Thank you Amit Tomar. From the moment I was met at the airport (after a 14 hour flight) and presented with a garland of flowers to the last moment being dropped off for my return journey, I was treated not only as a VIP but as a friend. The driver I had for the first 12 to 13 days (Om Prakash) was excellent and if anyone has ever driven in New Delhi you know what the traffic is like lol. The local guides at each destination were very knowledgeable and friendly shout out to Mitesh in Udaipur, Wasim in Varanasi, they all were amazing. It will be a tour I will always remember. If you have a chance to visit India you will not be disappointed if you use this company.

"I'll show you how to navigate the buzzing cities of India, and go beyond to find soul-stirring temples, beautiful mountains and irresistible food."

Travel Director

Navigate the busy streets of Old Delhi on a rickshaw ride

The nation's capital rings to the sounds of car horns, chai stalls and the chatter of its 29 million inhabitants. Shuffle into an open-air rickshaw and ride through the streets of the Old Delhi, admiring traditional Havelis and stopping for a famous mango or pomegranate frozen kulfi to cool off in the summer.

Gaze at the sun-kissed Taj Mahal in Agra

Take a journey to Agra and be stirred by the ultimate symbol of fairy-tale architecture. Inlaid with precious gemstones, this ivory marble palace was originally commissioned by an emperor as a tomb for his wife, standing as a symbol of love and opulence since 1653.

Spot tigers in Ranthambore National Park

Clamber into the back of an open-top safari car and spot leopards, marsh crocodiles, hyenas and Bengal tigers wandering their natural habitat. Sprawling over almost 300km 2 , the Ranthambore National Park is also home to a 10th-century fort, giant banyan trees and many lakes.

Experience royal Rajasthan

Enthralling cities interrupt the inhospitable desert in Rajasthan, India's largest state. Home to around 30 royal palaces including the floating lake palace of Udaipur and the iconic peach palace of Hawa Mahal, you will be swept up by the regal heritage found in this part of India.

Visit one of the Bollywood studios in Mumbai

Take a journey into the metropolis of Mumbai to uncover the prestigious culture of the Indian film industry. Without knowing a word of Hindi or a single Bollywood film, you will be captivated by this passionate industry. Be guided past the homes of megastars and catch a glimpse behind the scenes as the cameras roll.

Our top 5 things to do in India

Let Trafalgar guide your India vacation through a majestic tapestry of landmarks and experience. From the Taj Mahal to the tiger parks of Rajasthan, these are just some of the soul-stirring moments waiting when you travel with us.

National Museum

India vacation tours get under the skin of the country's culture with a trip to the National Museum of New Delhi. Roam the halls and take in elaborate jewellery, ancient manuscripts and traditional miniature paintings on cloth. From the prehistoric to the modern, this expansive Indian museum is a must-visit.

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya

The King Shivaji museum, or CSMVS, is a pride of Mumbai showcasing around 50,000 exhibitions within an impressive Indo-gothic building. After taking in archaeology, art and natural history, spend time in the tranquil, flower-filled gardens that contrast the bustle of Mumbai.

City Palace

Taking almost 400 years to be built, the City Palace of Udaipur is an architectural masterpiece beside Lake Pichola. Enter the museum section of the palace complex via the royal courtyard, allowing plenty of time to immerse in the artefacts of India's distant past.

Best museums in India

Step off the streets and find a moment of quiet in a spellbinding museum. Here are just a few of the places we will visit in India to peel back the many layers of culture.

A thin fried bread mentioned in 12th-century Sanskrit scriptures, paratha is part of India's cultural heritage. Try it stuffed with spinach, fenugreek and the cheese of paneer, or take it on its own for lapping up the leftover gravy from a delectable curry.

Varan Bhaat Diva

Popular along the sunny coastline of Goa, Varan Bhaat Diva is Indian comfort food of peas, beans, rice and many spices. Often given to those who are exhausted or sick, you will feel soothed by the warmth and turmeric in this family favorite.

Chicken cafreal

Inspired by the dishes brought from Portugal during colonial times, the herb coated chicken legs of cafreal will cement your infatuation with Indian cuisine. Shallow fried and often served with potato and wedges of citrus fruit, India tour packages aren't complete until cafreal is served.

Best food in India

Despite the many famous dishes that have journeyed far from the lands of India, this country still has culinary delights that will rouse your tastebuds. From warm bread to fragrant curries, we'll guide you through the secrets of this spicy land.

What to pack for India

A few good books

The Indian rail network chuffs for 65,000 kilometres around India. A geographically large company with relatively slow transport systems, a few books can keep you entertained between admiring scenery.

Light and modest clothing

Though India does get cooler than most expect, many parts of the year are intensely hot. Pack sheer, light clothing that covers you right to the ankles, wrists and neck so that you can respectfully visit religious sites without sweltering.

Medication for stomach upsets

Though our India group tours will see you largely protected from unsanitary food or water, it is still handy to keep a supply of medication on hand. Charcoal tablets can be taken daily as a preventive measure to ensure any nasties are quickly expelled from your system.

Water purification devices

The purification of water has come a long way in recent years. Make your way to a specialist travel shop to discuss bottles, gadgets and tablets that will ensure you stay hydrated without falling ill.

Wet wipes and hand sanitiser

True to its reputation, India can be a hot and messy place. Pack wet wipes and hand sanitiser to ensure you feel fresh when you're on the go.

India & Nepal

Our Nepal and India tours immerse you in the spectacular beauty of the Indian subcontinent as you fly over the landscapes of Mt. Everest... visit a Buddhist monastery in Kathmandu... feel the spiritual passion of the Taj Mahal... and more.

• ITINERARIES
• FEATURED TOURS

Welcome to India & Nepal

From the Arabian Sea to the Himalayas, from the ultramodern architecture of New Dehli to the forests of Bandhavgarh National Park in India and Chitwan National Park in Nepal, our unique experiences show you the incomparable cultural diversity, compelling history, and spectacular natural beauty of the Indian subcontinent.

Kathmandu, nepal, i'm going to kathmandu....

Kathmandu... the very name of this Nepalese city conjures up images of one of the most exotic regions on Earth. Your stay in Kathmandu with Tauck takes you to Pashupatinath Temple on the bank of the sacred Bagmati River, one of the holiest of all Hindu temples... a flightseeing adventure above the alpine landscapes of Mount Everest... a tour of Durbar Square, where ancient temples and pagodas are clustered around the old royal palace... a visit to Kasthamandap, the namesake of Kathmandu, said to be built from a single mythical tree... a rickshaw ride through the marketplace of Thamel ... and a visit to Kopan Monastery, where you'll take your shoes off and join the monks before traveling to the colossal stupa of Boudhanath, encircled by images of Buddha and hundreds of prayer wheels.

The Taj Mahal in Agra, India

A timeless monument to love in agra.

You could say that India's Taj Mahal is so famous that it needs no introduction… but it's so compelling a destination that it's hard not to talk about it. Considered the greatest achievement of Indo-Islamic architecture, this exquisite, domed, white marble mausoleum complex in Agra was commissioned in 1632 and completed two decades later as the tomb and memorial of Mumtaz Mahal, the favorite wife of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. Constructed at a cost that would be upwards of USD $825 million today, it ranks among history's most expensive declarations of love. Along with touring it with a local guide, you'll also see it from your hotel room!

The Khajuraho Temples, India

The famous temples of khajuraho.

The Indian town of Madya Pradesh is home to what today is known as the Khajuraho Group of Monuments. This UNESCO World Heritage Site, which you'll visit with Tauck, comprises a famous group of Hindu, Jain and Buddhist temples built between the 10th and 11th centuries by the Chandela Rajput Dynasty, praised by UNESCO for striking a perfect balance between architecture and sculpture... and famous both for their nagara-style symbolism, and the provocative nature of the statuary decorating many of the temples. Of the 85 or so temples that historians believed once stood in this area, only 25 have survived the ravages of time.

Jaipur, India

The gems of jaipur... and a remarkable way to see them.

The stunning city of Jaipur, India, is home to such highlights as the City Palace Museum, the Jantar Mantar Observatory, the massive gateways and pillared pavilions inside Amber Fort, and the magnificent domes and massive ramparts of Amber Palace. And there's no more exciting way to see these treasures than from above – aboard a hot air balloon soaring over Jaipur – an experience that's included in our "A Portrait of India" journey.

Passing Thru Travel

Exploring India’s Golden Triangle – Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur

Posted: March 25, 2024 | Last updated: March 25, 2024

The Golden Triangle, encompassing Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, offers an incredible journey through India’s rich history, vibrant culture, and breathtaking architecture. This iconic route explores the heart of India, providing a glimpse into the country’s royal past, colonial history, and architectural wonders. The journey through these three cities is akin to a passage through time, where each destination boasts its unique magic, from ancient forts and palaces to bustling bazaars and serene temples.

1. Delhi – The Capital’s Contrast

Image Credit: Shutterstock / Don Mammoser

Delhi, India’s capital, is where ancient history and modernity blend seamlessly. The city is divided into two parts: Old Delhi, a labyrinth of narrow lanes, age-old mosques, and bustling markets; and New Delhi, the imperial city created by the British Raj, characterized by wide boulevards, stately government buildings, and verdant gardens.

2. Agra – The City of Love

Image Credit: Shutterstock / Krishna.Wu

Agra is synonymous with the Taj Mahal, an eternal symbol of love. This UNESCO World Heritage site, built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, attracts millions of visitors annually. Beyond the Taj, Agra Fort, and Fatehpur Sikri are profound examples of the Mughal Empire’s architectural brilliance. Agra’s rich craft tradition, including marble inlay work and leather goods, offers unique souvenirs.

3. Jaipur – The Pink City

Image Credit: Shutterstock / AlexAnton

Jaipur, the vibrant capital of Rajasthan, is famed for its rich Rajput history, stunning forts, and splendid palaces. The city’s plan, based on Indian Vastu Shastra, features the City Palace, Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal, and Jantar Mantar, reflecting a blend of Rajput and Mughal architecture. Jaipur is also a shopper’s paradise, known for its gems, jewelry, textiles, and handicrafts.

4. Exploring the Markets of Delhi

Image Credit: Shutterstock / Curioso.Photography

Delhi’s markets are a vibrant example of India’s diverse culture, offering everything from luxurious silk fabrics to handcrafted artifacts. Chandni Chowk, one of the oldest and busiest markets in Old Delhi, provides a sensory overload with its narrow lanes filled with the scent of spices and colorful textiles. For a more upscale shopping experience, Khan Market offers branded boutiques, excellent bookshops, and some of Delhi’s best cafes and restaurants.

5. Agra’s Mughal Heritage

Image Credit: Shutterstock / Roop_Dey

While the Taj Mahal is Agra’s crown jewel, the city’s Mughal heritage offers much more to explore. The Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a red sandstone fortress that served as the residence of the emperors of the Mughal Dynasty. It houses several exquisite buildings, such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal. Akbar’s Tomb in Sikandra offers a serene and less crowded historical site, showcasing the architectural brilliance of Mughal art and design.

6. Jaipur’s Amer Fort and Hawa Mahal

Jaipur, the Pink City, is famed for its rich architectural heritage, with the Amer Fort and Hawa Mahal as iconic landmarks. Amer Fort, located on a hilltop, offers breathtaking views and a glimpse into the lavish lifestyle of the Rajput Maharajas. The fort’s Sheesh Mahal, or Mirror Palace, is a stunning example of artistic craftsmanship. Hawa Mahal, or the Palace of Winds, is known for its unique facade featuring 953 small windows, designed to allow royal ladies to observe street festivals while remaining unseen.

7. Culinary Delights of the Golden Triangle

Image Credit: Shutterstock / greenaperture

The Golden Triangle offers a culinary journey through India’s rich flavors and spices. Delhi’s street food, Agra’s Mughlai cuisine, and Jaipur’s Rajasthani dishes provide a feast for the senses. In Delhi, savor the chaat at Connaught Place or the kebabs in Old Delhi. Agra is famous for its petha, a sweet made from pumpkin, and savory kormas.

8. Art and Craft Workshops

Image Credit: Shutterstock / IndianFaces

Participating in art and craft workshops across the Golden Triangle offers an immersive experience into India’s artistic traditions. Delhi’s craft museums and studios offer workshops in pottery and textile arts. Agra is renowned for its marble inlay work, with workshops allowing visitors to try their hand at this intricate craft. Jaipur’s tie-dye and block printing workshops provide insight into traditional Rajasthani textile designs, offering a hands-on experience in creating your own fabric designs.

9. Exploring the Markets of Jaipur

Jaipur, known as the Pink City, is famous for its historic forts and palaces and its vibrant markets. These bazaars are alive with a riot of colors, offering everything from traditional Rajasthani jewelry and textiles to various handicrafts. The Johari Bazaar is renowned for its exquisite gemstones and jewelry, while the Bapu Bazaar is the go-to place for Rajasthani juttis (traditional leather shoes), scarves, and textiles.

10. Sunrise at the Taj Mahal, Agra

Image Credit: Shutterstock / YURY TARANIK

The Taj Mahal, is one of the Seven Wonders of the World, offers a breathtaking sight not to be missed — the sunrise view. Witnessing the first rays of the sun illuminate the white marble mausoleum is a magical experience. The early morning light bathes the Taj Mahal in a soft, golden hue, highlighting its intricate craftsmanship and majestic beauty. This time of day is perfect for photography and allows for a more serene experience, away from the crowds that gather as the day progresses.

India Tours & Holidays

There’s probably no other country on the planet that blazes its way into your memory like India.

Years later, you can still hear the morning calls of the chai wallahs; see smoke curling over the Ganges during a golden Varanasi sunrise , and smell the rich aromas of simmering curry. A lot of India tours rush from highlight to highlight, ticking them off in a blur of temples and tikka. But not us. Our India holidays are more about spotting Bengal tigers in Ranthambhore or Panna National Park, hanging with nomads in Jaisalmer, meeting the holy men of Pushkar, or hunting down the best street eats. This isn’t just the India you see on postcards. This is India as it is . Raw, bizarre and totally addictive.

Best time to visit india.

Due to India's size and topography, the climate varies from place to place but the best time to visit, generally speaking, is in the winter from December until early March. During the coolest months (December-January), temperatures can get quite cold in Delhi and in the north, especially at night. The whole country tends to get very hot from April onwards and most regions experience the summer from late May to around October. The summer offers hot and humid conditions, although this is considered one of the best times to visit Ladakh and the hills.

Culture and customs

India is one of the world’s oldest civilisations with a culture steeped in ancient beliefs and traditions. Religion also plays a massive role in everyday life with 80% of the population practising Hinduism while the remaining 20% is divided into Muslim (India has the world’s second-largest Muslim population), Christian, Sikhism and Buddhist populations.

At its core, India remains a deeply conservative nation; however, it has been touched by rapid modernization and Western influences in recent years. Some families still adhere to a traditional structure (especially in more rural areas) with generations living under the same roof, the eldest male at the head of the family and arranged marriages. But this is becoming less and less popular, particularly in larger cities, where Western ideas and societal shifts heavily influence the culture due to things like Bollywood films.

While some behavioural standards remain the same (public displays of affection are still taboo), it’s important to keep in mind that with more than one billion people speaking over 122 languages across 28 states and seven territories, it’s impossible to describe one unified culture for the entire nations and the character of India’s people can vary greatly from city to city.

It's spectacular and soul-stirring, but words simply aren't enough to describe the beauty of this immense mausoleum (even when it's packed with tourists).

Geography and environment

India shares land borders with   Bangladesh ,   China , Pakistan,   Nepal ,   Myanmar   and   Bhutan , and also has wide stretches of coastline along the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and Indian Ocean. As the seventh largest country in the world, India is home to a variety of terrains - the Himalayas of the north, the deserts and plains of the west, the fertile waterways of the south and the hills and forests of the east. Development is occurring at a rapid pace, with India's large, sprawling cities consisting of everything from five star hotels to shanty towns, and with modern malls and cinemas sitting comfortably alongside bazaars and street food vendors. A trip through India will reveal a diverse range of landscapes, villages, cities and environments.

History and government

Early history.

Humans have inhabited India for as long as 75,000 years, with early civilisations flourishing as early as 3300 BC. Over the centuries, India both influenced and was influenced by other nations and kingdoms, with far-reaching trade, conquest and migration spreading the subcontinent's culture far and wide. Empires rose and fell over the centuries, with the wealthy Mughal Dynasty ruling most of India by 1600. At the same time, different European nations started showing an interest in India after being brought to the area for trade. The Portuguese, Dutch, British and French all had vested interests in India, with the British East India Company being given the rights to trade in India in 1617. The 1857 rebellion and War of Independence culminated in the decline of Mughal rule and were considered the first movements against the British Raj's heavy-handed rule of the country.

Recent history

By the 1920s, India's independence movement had grown considerably with Mohandas Gandhi leading mass movements based on passive resistance and non-cooperation against the British Raj. Although it took decades, India finally gained independence in 1947. More recently, India has seen dramatic societal changes mainly due to modernisation and globalisation. A new wave of prosperity has seen the rise of the middle class, with men and women entering into new work roles in telecommunications, manufacturing and business. India's large cities are dealing with the mass migration of rural citizens, who are moving to the city to seek better employment, education and opportunities for their children.

Top 10 Sensory Experiences of India

1. potent pleasures.

Breathe in the intoxicating aroma of fresh spices while wandering through the bustling markets of India. Cardamom, coriander, cinnamon and nutmeg are classic spices of the subcontinent and aren't hard to find - the fresh scent envelopes markets across the country.

2. Fiery flavours

Treat your tastebuds to the spicy flavours of India with a traditional aromatic curry. Indulge in the heady mix of coconut milk, chilli, ginger, ghee and spices, then cool down by sipping on a refreshing Lassi - the prefect antidote to the unrelenting heat of an Indian curry.

3. Colourful chaos

Experience the urban cacophony of Delhi - a unique collision of cultures, cattle and people. Hear the rumble of cars, truck and buses, the frantic calls of street vendors and hawkers, the sizzle of food and the rustic ring of a cow bell in this unforgettable and irrepressible city.

4. In the pink

Admire the dazzling pink hues of Jaipur. Watch the historic palaces, forts, temples and monuments of the 'Pink City' be bathed in a dusky pink glow as the golden sun sets over the dramatic Aravalli Range.

5. Rat race

Walk barefoot through the Karni Mata Temple as thousands of rats scamper across the marble floor. Just felt a furry rodent scurry over your feet? Fear not - it's a sign of good luck in this unique rat-worshipping temple.

6. Instant karma

Experience the multi-sensory wonder of an Aarti ceremony on the banks of the Ganges. Hear the clanging of bells, watch the luminous glow of fire, smell wafts of pungent incense and hear rousing devotional songs and mantras. Be immersed in the fire and prayer of this Hindu ritual and be changed forever.

7. Gorgeous Goa

Sit beachside in Goa and gaze into the sublime beauty of the ocean. Take a moment to kick back and soak up the clear skies and deep blue sea of this exotic island. Watch the sun's rays shimmer on the horizon and bask in the golden glow of this balmy retreat.

8. Silky sophistication

For a slice of extravagance, feel the soft, luxurious touch of traditional Indian silk. Made in a variety of vibrant colours and perfect for making everything from saris to prayer mats and decorative hangings to upholstery, the inimitable feel of finely crafted silk is a simple pleasure in life.

9. Answered prayers

Hear the flutter of prayer flags as they flap in the wind near the isolated monasteries of Dharamsala. In a stark environment of rugged, mountainous landscapes, quietness permeates the air, except for the unique sound of prayer flags collecting prayers and sending them to the heavens above.

10. Big screen brilliance

Be treated to a feast for the senses at a bombastic Bollywood movie screening. Covet the glamorous costumes, marvel at the energetic choreography and delight in the lively music. Revel in the razzle dazzle of the whole spectacle and be swept away by the irresistible charm of India's triumphant cinematic phenomenon.

India's fragrant bazaars, modern boutiques and village markets are brimming with wares harnessing centuries of artistic traditions. With talented artisans and top quality items at low prices, India is a shopper's paradise. It's a good idea to check with your local customs officials to ensure that you are able to bring certain items back into your home country. Australia and New Zealand generally have strict quarantine laws.

Things to buy in India

1. Jewellery

From big, chunky ornate silver earrings to vibrant bangles and bold statement rings, India's silversmiths and jewellery makers ensure there are lots of pieces to choose from in the bazaars and shops.

2. Wraps, scarves and shawls

Whether you're looking for pricey pashmina, luxurious silk or colourful cotton, India has a huge variety of materials to wrap yourself in.

If you're lucky enough to be able to bring tea into your home country, then pick up some of the world's finest tea from the Darjeeling, Assam or Nilgiri regions.

Indian cotton sheets, embroidered bed spreads and colourful cushion covers can be picked up in bazaars at a fraction of the price paid elsewhere.

Many shops are open between 9 am and 7 pm, Monday through Saturday, though hours can vary at bazaars. Most shops are closed on Sunday.

Festivals and events in India

Many of India’s biggest festivals are religious and follow either the Indian lunar calendar or the Islamic calendar. The dates may change each year, but the fervour of celebration never does. Some of the best and biggest festivals to keep an eye out for in India are:

Holi (Festival of Colour)

Take a whole lot of coloured powder and water, add thousands of happy people not afraid to get a little (or a lot) dirty and you have Holi – a technicolour Hindu celebration that marks the beginning of spring and the triumph of good over evil. Celebrations take place across India in either February or March.

Diwali (Festival of Lights)

India’s biggest festival – meaning ‘rows of lighted lamps’, people decorate their homes with colourful lights, candles are lit and firework displays take place across the country. The celebrations are particularly spectacular in Varanasi, where illuminated candles and earthen lamps are floated down the Ganges River as fireworks light up the sky. This five-day festival takes place every October or November.

Gujarat Kite Festival

Large, colourful and unusual kites flood the skies of Gujarat each January to commemorate the start of summer and beginning of harvest. Purchase your own at Patang Bazaar, a famous kite market, or just watch the others dance through the sky.

Mumbai Ganesh Festival

The birth of the elephant-headed god, Ganesh, is celebrated for 10-days each August or September in cities across India, but Mumbai takes it to another level. An incredible energy can be felt throughout the city as people pack the streets for a massive party and an elaborate statue of Ganesh is paraded around.

Pushkar Camel Fair

Thousands of camels (and their owners dressed in their finest garb) descend upon Rajasthan's Pushkar for the annual camel fair. Camels are traded and raced, acrobats and performers entertain crowds at a nearby fair, while finely dressed males and bejewelled females take the chance to let their hair down.

While travelling through India, on a tour or otherwise, it’s expected one would tip porters, drivers, restaurant staff and other service workers given the low wages they earn.

What is the internet access like in India?

Internet access is generally very good in India, with most cafes, restaurants and accommodations offering free wi-fi, even in the more rural areas. There is also good phone coverage for data use if you choose to purchase a local SIM card to stay connected for the duration of your India tour.

If you do wish to purchase a local SIM in India, make sure your phone has been unlocked before your tour begins. There are quite a number of carriers that are all very competitive, but Airtel is probably the best option for travellers. You’ll need to a copy of your passport and visa to pick up a SIM, and the process can sometimes be a hassle, but rates in India are very affordable given the competition.

Yes, you’ll be able to use your mobile phone while on an India tour, but only if you have activated global roaming or purchased a local SIM card.

What are the toilets like in India?

Squat toilets are the most common toilets in India. Always carry your own toilet paper and soap or hand sanitizer, as they are usually not provided. Flushable, Western-style toilets can be found in up-market restaurants, some higher-end hotels and in some tourist areas.

• Cup of tea = INR 7-10
• Small bottle of beer = INR 150-350
• Meal at a local restaurant (thali, masala dosa or similar) = INR 100-200
• Meal in a tourist restaurant = INR 350-600

Can I drink the tap water in India?

India is notorious among travellers for sickness – we’ve all heard horror stories about Delhi belly. We do not recommend ever drinking tap water in India, and travellers should avoid drinks with ice and foods that haven’t been cooked or peeled. Salad is off the menu for now ­– let your inner child rejoice!

Are credit cards widely accepted in India?

Credit cards are being accepted an increasing number of cafes, shops, restaurants and hotels in India, with Mastercard and Visa being the most common. That said, cash is still king, especially outside of cities like Kolkata, Delhi and Mumbai.

What is ATM access like in India?

ATMs are widespread across India in both cities and smaller towns. Visa, Mastercard, Cirrus and Maestro are the most commonly accepted cards, but of those Visa and Mastercard are more likely to have success. The daily withdrawal limit differs from bank to bank.

What is the weather like in India?

The weather in India varies from region to region, but it’s generally safe to say that December–February sees dry, cooler weather before the heat intensifies from March–May. June, July and August are the monsoon months, though the amount of rain differs across the country, while October, September and November see rainfall ease once more.

Is India safe for LGBTQIA+ travellers?

The majority of Indian society is still conservative, and while most travellers will have a welcoming and hospitable experience, discretion is still advised for LGBTQIA+ travellers, particularly in more remote towns and villages which may be more conservative. The same advice is also given to heterosexual couples (and couples of all other sexual orientations) as public displays of affection other than hugging and holding hands are generally frowned upon.

For more detailed and up-to-date advice, we recommend visiting  Equaldex  or  ILGA  before you travel.

Is India accessible for travellers with disabilities?

Intrepid is committed to making travel widely accessible, regardless of ability or disability. That’s why we do our best to help as many people see the world as possible, regardless of any physical or mental limitations they might have. We’re always happy to talk to travellers with disabilities and see if we can help guide them towards the most suitable itinerary for their needs and, where possible, make reasonable adjustments to our itineraries.

As a general rule, knowing some common words in the local language, carrying a written itinerary with you and taking to the streets in a group, rather than solo, can help make your travel experience the best it can be.

What to wear in India

What you decide to pack and wear in India will depend on where you are and what time of year it is. The weather across India usually follows the monsoon cycle, so it’s quite easy to plan what to pack when it comes to rain, but temperatures will vary quite a bit from the north to the south.

How do I stay safe and healthy while travelling?

Intrepid takes the health and safety of its travellers seriously and takes every measure to ensure that trips are safe, fun and enjoyable for everyone. We recommend that all travellers check with their government or national travel advisory organisation for the latest information before departure:

The World Health Organisation also provides useful health information.

How will I be travelling around India?

Intrepid believes half the fun of experiencing a new country is getting there, and getting around once there! Where possible, Intrepid uses local transport options and traditional modes of transport - which usually carry less of an environmental impact, support small local operators and are heaps more fun.

Depending on which trip you're on while in India, you may find yourself travelling by Jeeps.

Safari through jungles and national parks aboard a jeep, which is ideal for conquering the difficult terrain and offers supreme wildlife viewing opportunities.

Cruising the waterways of India is a revealing, inspiring experience. Whether it’s the iconic Ganges or peaceful Kerala backwaters, seeing India from the water is a must.

Travelling by train is one of the great experiences of India. It's a system which looks like chaos, but it works - and well.

Use the efficient metro to get around the sights and suburbs of Delhi.

Zip around the big cities of India by auto rickshaw.

What kind of accommodation will I be staying in?

Travelling with Intrepid is a little bit different. We endeavour to provide travellers with an authentic experience to remember, so we try to keep accommodation as unique and traditional as possible.

When travelling with us in India you may find yourself staying in a homestay.

Make new friends, feast on authentic home cooking and receive kind hospitality while staying with friendly families in India.

With walks, wildlife spotting and adventure sports nearby, staying in a jungle resort is the perfect way to see another side of India.

From ex-royal palaces to historic hill stations and converted forts, India is full of heritage properties that have been turned into comfortable accommodation with an old-world touch.

What is it like travelling on a small group tour?

Whether you’re a seasoned traveller or you’re about to embark on your first trip, travelling can be as intimidating as it is exciting. That's the beauty of a small group tour. From handling the logistics and organising amazing cultural activities to local leaders who know each destination like the back of their hand (like which street has the best markets and where to get the most authentic food), travelling on a small group tour with Intrepid will give you unforgettable travel experiences without the hassle that comes with exploring a new place.

Does my trip to India support The Intrepid Foundation?

Yes, all Intrepid trips support the Intrepid Foundation. In fact, we make a donation on behalf of every traveller. Trips to India directly support our foundation partner, Positive Change for Marine Life. 

Positive Change for Marine Life

Positive Change for Marine Life nurtures ocean health with community-led conservation initiatives. Donations help them expand and implement vital programs in India that empower local communities, support sustainable fishing practices, restore marine habitats and drive policy change. Intrepid will double the impact by dollar-matching all post-trip donations made to The Intrepid Foundation.
