As beautiful as it is bamboozling, India has stunned visitors from around the world for decades, continually bringing new surprises, even to the most seasoned travellers.
An intoxicating mix of chaos and serenity, India is one of the most ethnically diverse countries in the world and is home to innumerable castes and tribes. The history and culture of India reaches back all the way to the beginning of human civilisation, starting with the highly sophisticated and urbanised culture that evolved along the Indus River from 3300 to 1300 BCE.
INFORMATION
WHEN TO GO November to March
GETTING AROUND India has an extensive train network that will get you where you want to go quickly, comfortably and affordably. For shorter distances, taxis and tuk-tuks are a good option, but you will need to use your best bargaining skills. For longer-distance cross-country travel, domestic flights are convenient, but if you have the time, taking the train is a much better way to enjoy the journey
GETTING THERE The main gateway to India is via New Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport, or Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport. Additionally, travellers may fly in via other cities such as Chennai (Chennai International Airport), Hyderabad (Rajiv Gandhi International Airport), and Bangalore (Bangalore International Airport)
