India
From North to South, East to West, India is a kaleidoscope of cultures with different customs, dress, history, religion, food and landscape.
For over four thousand years India has seen successive empires come and go, all of whom have left their own imprint. There are innumerable experiences - far too many for just one trip, from the Forts, Palaces and Mausoleums of the Mughals throughout colourful Rajasthan, to the elegant architecture of the British Raj in Bombay, Calcutta and Delhi, and French influence in Pondicherry.
India has it all; admire the Mughal magnificence of the Taj Mahal in Agra, trek in the Himalayan foothills following the path of the hunter turned conservationist Jim Corbett, slowly drift through the Keralan backwaters. You can sip tea on an old colonial estate, visit the tattooed tribes of Orissa, witness the extraordinary rituals and ceremonies in the Temples of Tamil Nadu, gallop Mawari horses through the Thar Desert, or gaze in awe at a majestic tiger as he crosses your path - India offers myriad options.
At Tim Best Travel we are continually adding to our knowledge of this vast sub-continent, through travel and research, and including more unusual and out of the way places in our portfolio.
