From the Mughal grandeur of Delhi and Agra to the dreamy backwaters of Kerala, a trip to India packs in the kind of sights and stories you won’t stop talking about. You’ll hit icons like the Taj Mahal and Jaipur’s Amber Fort, but also dive deeper, into wild and remote corners like Spiti Valley, a Himalayan desert few outsiders reach.
With Rough Guides’ tailor-made travel in India, your journey is designed just for you, by local experts who know where to find the best biryani in Hyderabad or how to get you temple-hopping in Hampi before the tour buses arrive.

Things to know before your India trip
What does a trip to India look like?−
India is huge, so your trip can go in countless directions. A classic route connects the so-called Golden Triangle: Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, with a stop to float through the palm-fringed Kerala Backwaters in the south.
Want to see another side of India? Ask your local expert about Spiti Valley for stark Himalayan landscapes, Ziro Valley in Arunachal Pradesh for tribal festivals, or Gokarna, a chilled-out beach town without Goa’s party crowds. Hampi adds history and boulder-strewn magic in the south.
