INDIA |
What can we tell you about India that you haven't already read for yourself, or,
heard about from others? Probably not much on the face of it, but India is not a country one can ever fully understand or appreciate just by reading or listening to what others say. India is an experience and no words can ever portray what India truly is. NEI (UK) can show you the real India. |
Further down still and back towards the centre of southern India is the modern centre of technology at Bangalore. Not far from Bangalore is the incense centre of India at Mysore. From Mysore it is possible to drive all the way south into Kerala. This drive crosses the Western Ghats with their tea and coffee plantations and animal sanctuaries. |
Once in Kerala, Kochi (Cochin) provides a wealth of places of interest and the Chinese nets are one of that city's best known sights. Away from the cities, the backwaters of Kerala provide a wonderfully relaxing way to see the interior of the state. Spend the night on a converted rice barge - a unique experience, as is a stay at an Ayurvedic health resort. India's ancient holistic medicine can be enjoyed at the very best of these
resorts. If a stay at an Ayurvedic resort does not rejuvenate you, nothing
will ! |
A tour of India need not end up at its southerly tip. Consider heading north
again, travelling along the East coast, to visit Chennai (Madras), the fabulous beach temples at Puri or even the British India capital of Calcutta. What have we missed out? Well, many places - we could not mention them all - but Varanasi, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Goa all spring to mind. But just because we haven't mentioned them, doesn't mean they are not worth visiting. Everywhere in India has something of interest to someone and we will be happy to arrange for you to go wherever you want to go to in India and see whatever you want to see: temples, monasteries, palaces, caves and a warm, welcoming people. |
And we haven't forgotten about wildlife! Throughout the length and breadth of India, wildlife is protected in
parks, reserves, sanctuaries and other designated areas. Tiger populations are still low, but rising and chances do exist to see them at places like Corbett National Park. Rare rhinocerous can be seen at Kaziranga National Park and Bharatpur is world famous for its birds. Further south, many animal sanctuaries can be visited, including that at Periyar in Kerala, where elephants abound. NEI (UK) will be more than happy to arrange tours to enable you to see India's wildlife. |
Travel with NEI (UK) and you will enjoy the India of your dreams |
Let us take you from the highest mountains in Northern India and fascinating Ladakh, all the way down to Kerala with its historic cities and beautiful waterways |
Further south still, Aurangabad and the caves at Ellora and Ajanta are truly sights to marvel at. |
Mumbai (Bombay) is a short flight from Aurangabad and the hustle and bustle of this city
is an amazing experience. |
From Delhi, strike off to Agra and the Taj Mahal - such splendour! - and on to Rajasthan by way of Fatehpur Sikri, to the 'Pink City' of Jaipur. Rajasthan has so much to offer the visitor - palaces serve as splendid hotels, the painted havelis of the Shekhawati region are a must, try a camel safari, or a hire car and drive to some of the beautiful desert cities and forts. NEI (UK) can do all this for you. Moving south, a visit to Gwalior, not on many tour itineraries, is well worthwhile. |
