Planning for a Holiday in India?

India is an incredible holiday destination. Nowhere else in the world can you find quite as much cultural and spiritual diversity in one place.

If you are planning to travel to India, you may wish to consider travel insurance to India before departing.

Because India is a developing nation, the rate of petty crime is high, particularly in large urban areas. Tourists make very easy targets for thieves and pickpockets.

During the holiday season, i.e., from March to September, airports and train stations become passageways for extremely large numbers of people. The train stations of Mumbai are infamous for being chaotic and overcrowded.

India is the world's second most populous country after China. Over the last 50 years, there have been many advances in medicine, agriculture and transportation in India. This has led to rapid growth in population.

Around 70% of Indians inhabit rural areas, but recent decades have seen the migration of many rural living Indians to cities, increasing the population of urban centres, resulting in megacities like Mumbai. India's largest cities are Mumbai (formerly Bombay), Delhi, Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), Chennai (formerly Madras), Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore), Hyderabad and Ahmedabad.
