Luxury holiday in India with Concierge Traveller

A multi dimensional travel experience offering an intoxicating cultural cocktail for the visitor

Travel to India is an all-out assault on the senses. You’ll travel through dusty heat (or snowy cold in the north), sharing roads with a parade of bicycles, auto-rickshaws, sputtering motorcycles, tinsel-draped trucks, camel carts and the occasional cow. At India’s sites and markets, the chaos continues: throngs of beggars, hawkers, tourists, near-naked holy men, businesspeople, children and scurrying monkeys. Amid the cacophony, some of the globe’s most majestic and historical sites will emerge—the Taj Mahal, the Ganges, the pink city of Jaipur and the mighty Himalayas.

India, with all its variety, offers a multi dimensional travel experience and an intoxicating cultural cocktail. As you travel from region to region, you’ll be exposed to dramatic changes in cuisine, dress, language, religion, custom and tradition.

Some parts of the country are rife with modern conveniences, and Indians there live in fashionable real estate, surrounded by the trappings of 21st-century consumer capitalism. Malls, multiplexes and lifestyle stores are opening everywhere. Yet in some areas, people still don’t have access to clean water, electricity, adequate food and medical care. Many people, attracted to cities in search of jobs, stay in clumsy shacks because of unaffordable real estate, resulting in slum regions. This is especially prevalent in India’s commercial capital, Mumbai, where the government is building multi-storied housing complexes to accommodate these people.

With these contradictions come complications. The mass of humanity that populates India requires that you be patient, flexible and tolerant, which can be difficult if you’re troubled by the disparities between India’s rigid social classes. Most travellers will find these difficulties well worth the rewards, however as India remains an incomparable and unforgettable travel experience.
