What do you love most about India?
"The Taj Mahal, a story of love and devotion that has to be seen, and felt to be believed."
What do you love most about India?
"Varanasi - I felt joyousness, disbelief, amazement, shock, sadness and a sense of connection that I couldn’t possibly explain. A city where life and death are infamously intertwined for all to see."
@Where_jesswanders's Top Tips
"Staying in a good hotel is a must in Agra. The city is notoriously crowded and overloaded with trash, a retreat to a beautiful hotel with a nice pool gives you a break from the craziness that is Agra."
What do you love most about India?
"Not matter what angle you view it from, the Taj Mahal is simply stunning!"
Benefits of a tour guide for India
"In Jaipur all of the attractions are quite spread out, going with a guide allows you to make the most of your time visiting the attractions, rather than trying to figure out how to get from one to the other."

A 'MUST' whilst you're there?
