India Tours

In India you need to leave your cares behind, lift up your proverbial skirt, open your mind and run into this extraordinary city with open arms. If you don’t, you won’t experience the true culture of India and will want to run home to your ordered, quiet suburban life. Don’t. Embrace the sights, smells and sounds, wear the saris (or colourful dhoti or lungi for men), eat the food, but don’t drink the water! Cover yourself in insect repellent and trek through the tropical rainforest of the Andaman Islands, the coniferous forest of the Himalayas and the moist deciduous Sal Forest of eastern India. With animals like the Asiatic lion, the Bengal tiger, and the Indian White-rumped vulture, your camera will be exploding with photographs. And don’t forget the most amazing attraction of all, the Taj Mahal, built under the guidance of the Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his adored wife.
