This itinerary is the most popular itinerary because
it shows you the best of India. You will visit the
vast and heavily populated state of UP, lies in
north India. It has an area larger than that of
Britain and only 5 countries (including India) host
larger populations than this state. It is bounded
by Uttaranchal, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi,
Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand,
Bihar, and the international border of Nepal. UP
occupies a large part of River Ganges's fertile
plains. Almost half of the country's potato and
sugarcane, and much of its wheat grow here. Described
as the cow belt, it's actually home to some 78%
of India's livestock. The Ganges defines its religious
and cultural landscape, sacred in itself and nurturing
some of the holiest Hindu sites like Varanasi and
Allahabad. Yamuna is the other sacred river. The
UP region played a central role in the history of
the Indian subcontinent and its major religions
as the birthplace of Hindu gods Ram (Ayodhya) and
Krishna (Mathura) and the place where Buddha preached
his first sermon (Sarnath). Politically dominant
UP produced five of modern India's Prime Ministers.
However, the present in UP hasn't quite lived up
to the past: there is a paucity of modern industry,
services, and infrastructure.
You will also visit the famous Rajasthan. This
area is the India's largest state and is located
on its north-western border with Pakistan. Rajasthan
is bisected by the Aravalli hills, dividing it
into two distinct landscapes. On the west is Rajasthan's
unique feature, the Thar Desert an area of sand,
scrub and thorn. The other is the region to the
east of the Aravallis, which is more rain fed
and hospitable. The culture of Rajasthan is defined
by the Rajputana kingdoms that ruled it for centuries;
the word Rajput meaning sons of royalty. The Thar
Desert region saw the Desert Kingdoms of Marwar
(modern Jodhpur), Jaisalmer, and Bikaner. The
east saw the kingdoms of Mewar (modern Chittor
and Udaipur), Amber (modern Amber and Jaipur),
and Hadoti. Don’t miss the unique experience
