This once secretive Himalayan kingdom, off limits to tourists until the 1970s, takes much pride in, and holds steadfastly onto its unique customs and traditions, and strives to retain the charm of the old world with a passion you are unlikely to see anywhere else in the world. The only country to measure its Gross National Happiness, tiny and mountainous Bhutan is certainly a one-off, and the opportunity to be one of those lucky few to experience this unique outlook on life, shaped by Buddha’s teachings, is too incredible to miss.

The energy and spirit that dances through India comes from the first explosion of patchouli incensed balmy air to the second or third bizarre glimpse of a cow ambling along the road on your wild rickshaw journey into Delhi. There’s that breathtaking first sighting of the pink city of Jaipur and a spectacular sunrise view of the Taj Mahal. India holidays are all encompassing – one moment mouth-watering street food in Mumbai, the next a gastronomic feast in Udaipur; one day a cacophony of vibrant market shopping, Hindu temples and sacred statues, another a sedate afternoon cruising the Keralan backwaters. Imagine regal hotels clad in cool marble, cities built by Mughal emperors, undiscovered rural corners where you can share a cup of chai with locals and Rajasthan’s hectic but resplendent cities. Our hand-picked holidays to India take you on a journey of cultural riches from bold and beautiful sights to smaller pockets of this incredible country. Pop into your local store or give one our Personal Travel Experts a call to start creating your dream India holiday.
