Taj Mahal

India

India is one of the most diverse, exciting countries on earth. It has a colourful way of life, with vibrant cities, amazing temples and scenery you just won’t believe which is why one holiday there just isn’t enough.

On the initial ‘bucket list’ would be Rajasthan and the Golden Triangle in the north. A trip to India really wouldn’t be complete without visiting Agra and the Taj Mahal, or a balloon ride over Jaipur or Udaipur on the shores of Lake Pichola.

There is a lot more to the country through, with stunning scenery – especially in the Himalayas, spotting Tigers in the Ranthambore National Park, or in the South with the Keralan Backwaters, the French colonial town of Puducherry or the ornate architecture in Mysore.
