India

A trip to India is an all-out assault on the senses. You'll be traveling through heat and dust, sharing the roads - and sidewalks - with a swirl of bicycles, auto-rickshaws, sputtering motorcycles, tinsel-draped trucks, scurrying monkeys, snake charmers, beggars, camel carts, near-naked holy men and the occasional cow. Amidst the parade of people and animals, majestic sights emerge - the Taj Mahal, the Ganges, the Himalayas.

Along with these wondrous experiences comes some less-than-wonderful complications: The mass of humanity that populates India requires that you be patient, flexible and tolerant, which can be difficult if you're troubled by the disparities between India's rigid social classes. The country's religious conflicts and ongoing dispute with Pakistan are also concerns, though these events have been largely confined to certain regions. Most travellers will find these difficulties to be well worth the rewards, however: India remains an incomparable travel experience.
