India is about so much more than simply visiting a lot of cities and seeing the grand sights. Yes, the forts, palaces and temples are remarkable and an important part of any trip, and most tours will include a number of these. But to truly experience India, we strongly recommend getting beyond the iconic sights and heading into less-visited places, walking, taking a cycle-rickshaw ride, or a boat trip, maybe a cooking or art class- the list is almost limitless. Even in the most popular tourist cities, there are hidden gems to be discovered and we work closely with partners all across the country to help you discover these for yourself.
Whether you take a day cruise in the backwaters of Alleppey in Kerala, enjoy an evening watching Kalarippayattu and Kathakali, traditional performance arts of Kerala, head off on a walking through a spice plantations of Munnar, ride a camel in the unending expanse of desert in western Rajasthan, venture on a jeep safari in a National Park, or cycle around a village in Tamil Nadu, you may well find that these more low-key activities are among the greatest memories of your time in India.
The icons below will take you deeper into each specific region and perhaps begin to answer the question, :Why is India Incredible?!"
