India Tourist Guides — Activities

Royal Bengal tiger

Once you are in India, you will be surrounded by a host of activities. India has a number of wildlife sanctuaries and riding in the elephants back to get a glimpse of wildlife is a heavenly experience. The elephant moves slowly, therefore enjoying the vast texture of trees, giving birth to rarest plants and the jungles resounding with echoes of birds and wild animals make it a veritable paradise for every lover of jungles. Elephant riding in Kerala specially has now become a craze amongst tourists.

Even camel safaris through Thar Desert are an experience that defies all imagination. While riding on camel.s back, you can view the unending stretch of virgin lands, sand dunes of Jaisalmer and Bikaner, the heritage resorts, the erstwhile ancient culture of the region manifested in the hospitality of villagers at oasis, the remote forts and other magnificent sites. The camel safaris begin from Khuri and end before nightfall.

Another attractive set of activities includes mountaineering, trekking and rock climbing. Its done usually during April to November, when the sky remains pleasant and Himalayas remain refulgent in the sunny brightness. The mountaineering, the trekking and rock climbing makes you feel the magic in the bracing air. As you ascend higher, you witness the mist wrapped beauty of the hills and places, sometimes the emerald green tea bushes loom large in front of you, and sometimes the purple glory of the morning sunshine lights up the faraway hamlet.that.s what its all about. Trek along and all too soon a soft white mist wreathes itself around trees, vales hills and you. It stays with you long after you have returned home.

Some of the mountaineering places, which give you a unique experience, are as follows:

  • The high altitude regions of Kumaon, Garhwal and Ladakh region.
  • Rajrambha and Panch Chulhi in Kumaon.
  • Peaks of the Eastern Himalayas mostly in Sikkim.

Even trekking is thick in action and is a melting pot of experiences. A host of places, which are heaven for trekkers:

  • Gentle slopes of Indian Himalayas.
  • Regions covering the state of Himachal Pradesh, the Uttarkand, Kashmir and Sikkim.
  • Kedarnath and Amarnath Yatra
  • Vaishno Devi pilgrimage
  • Manosarovar Yatra
  • Kulu and Lahaul in Himachal Pradesh

You can also go rock-climbing on the following hills:

  • Aravalli hills
  • Mumbra and Dudha in Western Ghats.
  • Rohtang Pass in Himachal Pradesh
  • Sonmarg in Kashmir
  • Gangotri in Garhwal.

You can rejuvenate in the winter sports that India has to offer, while you can glide smoothly through the snowy wonders, you can also dive and snorkel to discover the greater depths of the blue watery expanse. It.s in all, an experience that defies all imagination. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep and Goa and sunbathing and diving in the pristine beaches of Gokarna and Kovalam in Kerala are unforgettable experience.

Shopping in India is a lavish experience. Going into a shopping spree and visiting the shopping malls and arcades all over the country is very pleasant. The prices are quite cheap yet authenticity of the prices of the products is guaranteed. During festive seasons especially during the September to December, the shops offer huge discount sometimes even up to 50%. Commodities like jewellery, antiques, dresses, tribal art, woodcarvings, cosmetics and electronic goods are all available at considerable prices.
