| Top Tip | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Holy Varanasi is a magical city of temples rituals and legends that sprawls along the banks of the river Ganges. Watch religious life in action in the many temples, and shrines, soak up the atmosphere at sunset during the candle flower ceremony. |
| 2 | Home to India's only temple dedicated to Brahma the creator, Pushkar is a major destination for pilgrims and sahus we take a camel ride into the desert for a magical sunset among the dunes. |
| 3 | Head to Sawai Madhopur, home to Ranthambhore National Park, one of the original Project Tiger Reserves. Take a safari into the park, with its lakes, scrublands and ruined palaces, as well as wildlife including deer, birds and monkeys. If you are lucky, you may even see one of the resident Bengal tigers. |
| 4 | Visit Kerala and enjoy a secluded Backwaters Homestay where all the families live within a few hundred metres of each other, and enjoy traditional Kerlana home cooking. |
| 5 | In Goa head to the southern beaches and in particular the remote Palolem Beach - grab a beach hut and spend your days fishing and playing volleyball on the moon-shaped beach. |
