A short guide about Adventure travel to India

Incredible India! The catch phrase of the national tourism organization for India sums up this vast and diverse land. Set apart from the rest of Asia by the towering Himalaya's in the north and flowing down to vast national parks, lush rainforests and amazing beaches in the south. Side by side with the country's staggering topographical variations is its cultural diversity.

Modern India is home to the tribal with its anachronistic lifestyle and to the sophisticated urban jetsetter. It is a land where temple elephants exist amicably with the microchip. Its ancient monuments are the backdrop for the world's largest democracy where atomic energy is generated and industrial development has brought the country within the world's top ten nations. Today, fishermen along the country's coastline fashion simple fishing boats in a centuries old tradition while a few miles away motor vehicles glide off conveyor belts in state-of-the-art factories.

Visit popular places to the north of India such as Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand which are at the foot of Himalayas. They are known for their scenic beauty, flowers, gardens, lakes and snow covered hill stations like Shimla, Kullu, Manali and Missouri. There are plenty of opportunities for skiing, river rafting and mountaineering while you are on an adventure trekking tour through region. Visit places like Mumbai, Delhi, Goa or Kashmir, or quietly glide down the River Ganges on your raft before travelling to the immortal beauty of the Taj Mahal.

So browse Tourabout and start planning your trip to Incredible India through one of these vacation packages from the leading travel providers to a country of profound vibrations. With centuries of austerities practiced it is a thirst quencher for the spiritual seeker, the nature lover, and for those who come here for a beautiful but unique experience.
