Eclectic India

Domestic holiday packages to India are the new travelling abroad. Increasingly, it seems, that us Indians are realising we don’t really need to travel to another country to have an amazing holiday. Instead we can have whatever we want from a trip right here in our own country.

The benefits are clear. Firstly, you don’t have to spend so much time travelling. If you were planning a trip to the US, for example, you’d end up spending over two days just travelling – a day in each direction plus domestic flights once you’re there. In India, the longest fight is going to be two or three hours. Secondly, holidaying in India is going to work out a great deal cheaper without necessarily sacrificing any of the quality. International flights won’t be required, and accommodation, food and activities will all cost a substantially smaller amount in India than the US, UK, Australia, Maldives etc etc.

Added to these two logistical benefits, domestic holiday packages in India have the advantage of being in a country with a great diversity of topography, cultures and activities. Each state has something different and unique to offer the traveller.

In Tamil Nadu it’s possible to visit amazing temples in Madurai, to explore the monolithic ruins in Mahabalipuram, to walk along the second longest beach in the world (Marina beach) in Chennai and experience the cultural remnants of the French in Pondicherry. In Kerala, you can laze around on a house boat in the backwaters of Allepey and Kumarakom, sunbathe on the unique black sands of Varkala, enjoy the tea plantations of the hill station Munnar and savour the delights of a fish curry. And that’s just two of twenty eight states.

India has pretty much everything a traveller or holidaymaker could want, regardless of what kind of travelling you prefer. If you want islands and beaches then there’s Andaman, Lakshadweep, Goa and Gokarna. If you’d prefer more arid landscapes, then there’s the Thar desert in Rajasthan and Gujarat. If high altitudes are your thing then mountains are scattered all over India, including the greatest range of them all – the Himalayas. Whether you want hill stations hosting tea gardens, or snow-peaked mountains, it’s all here in India. So why waste your money and time travelling to far and distant lands when a domestic holiday package in INDIA can include everything you want?
