INDIA IS A MUST VISIT PLACE IN 2024!!!

From crazy hectic cities to calm exotic waters and safari's, there's so much this country has to offer! A country that is a lot bigger than most expect, trying to pick out the must do places to visit can often seem to be quite the challenge so we decided to take it upon ourselves, to do ALL the research for you and find the top 5 places you should not miss on your next adventure to India!

WONDER OF THE WORLD? COMPLETED IT MATE!

First up we have possibly one of the most iconic buildings in India and if you don't know what we're talking about then you'll soon find out... Lying in the heart of the bustling city, Agra, not only is it one of the Seven Wonder of the World, but it's also known as one of the most impressive buildings in the world and that's not even an exaggeration! Visiting the Taj Mahal is an absolute must when travelling India. But let's keep things real, the place can get super busy so make sure you get an early night as waking up at 5am to watch the sun come up over the ivory-white palace, is the best option and also the most breath-taking experience. But wait... theres more! One view of the place isn't quite enough so in the afternoon take a tuk-tuk ride across river Yamuna to view the Taj from a different perspective. Admire the reflections over the water, welcomed by a warm, colourful sunset making an appearance behind. The perfect for those epic Instagram shots!

 

UNCOVER THE BEAUTY OF NEW DELHI

A city that is one of a kind. The busiest place you will go, yet filled with the most unique & exciting surroundings. Enjoy getting lost wandering around the cobbled streets, embracing the array of spices and smells that the city has to offer. Don’t be afraid to try the street food as it has the most authentic food you will get in India! Check out a Sahsik temple, the India gate war memorial, Rashtrapati Bhavan and last but not least, learn how to make chapatis and enjoy warming up in the evening to a fresh cup of Chai tea.

 

GO WILD IN RATHAMBORE

Get your camera on the ready because you're going to need it! If you didn't know already, India is home to some of the most incredible wildlife. We're talking Tigers, Crocodiles, Monkeys, Peakocks, Deers, Leopards, Striped Hyenas... the list goes on! This is why Rathambore National Park is one of our top places to visit in India. Get up bright and early, grab your binoculars and get ready to catch the sunrise as you explore the Natinal Park on jeeps for the day. It's WILD out there, trust us!

 

 EXPLORE THE PINK CITY & COOK UP A STORM IN JAIPUR

 

Welcome to the city! Jaipur, the capital city of Rajasthan. Not only representing the rich and vibrant lifestyle of traditional Rajasthan, the artwork in this city is famous all over the world. But why pink? The colour pink denotes the colour of hospitality, so in 1876 Maharaja Ram Singh of Jaipur painted the whole city pink to welcome the guests… as you do!

Jaipur is part of the famous Golden triangle. It's the perfect pathway to take on your visit to India, so take a day to explore the beauty of this city and get those magical Insta worthy shots! But don't stop there! Let's spice things up. While you're in the city, make sure to take part in one of our favourite activities you could do when travelling... an authentic cooking class! Not only is it the best way to interact with the locals and learn about their culture but it's also a great way to support local communites and learn a new skill.
