Excellent well worth the long journey (more)Belinda Coole
I'm afraid it was that intangible mix of the group which happened by luck which made vacation, It could have been good without the right people, everything

Probably the most exciting thing was seeing two tigers (on separate visits - one on the boat safari and one on a land safari) in Nagarhole National Park - astonishing.

Tips?
The exchange rate in cuba is not good for Americans so bring extra money

There were many memorable moments - the scale and grandeur of the various palaces and forts with the Taj Mahal, Fatehpur Sikri, and Jaipur standing out... The marble carvings at the Jainist temple at Rankapore were quite extraordinary. We really enjoyed Bhindar, not just staying in the Palace, but the waking around the town without a tourist shop in sight! (more)Tim Johnston
Finding ourselves in India at Holi - and being involved! We were prepared, by our guide, for what would happen - the showering of colours onto friends and strangers alike - and so dressed accordingly, and joined in! As a result, we had great fun! (more)David Lynn
