As a honeymoon destination, India is hard to beat when it comes to offering the perfect blend of captivating culture and raw natural beauty. Hand in hand with your dearly beloved, tour some of the country’s most spectacular spots - the dazzlingly white Taj Mahal, the Tibetan Buddhist enclave of Ladakh and the gloriously hectic city of Calcutta. On your India honeymoons, don’t miss a trip to the Indian Himalayas. Enjoy heavenly hiking and trips to tea gardens - where you can share a warming cup of chai with your one and only - and stick around to watch a rose-gold sunset sink below the horizon for a moment of pure, old-school romance. For a honeymoon off the beaten track, head to the extraordinary Andaman Islands where you’ll get the chance to meet sea-swimming elephants and remote indigenous tribes.

"Our driver Sonu Deepesh was amazing! Always on time with the cleanest car and gave good information on route. There are too many memorable moments! The Kite Festival, Varanasi, Agra, visiting the village in Shahpura, the street tour in Jaipur, entry by tuk tuk into Jophur and nearly hitting an elephant, the people, and the colours. It was all wonderful."

"Frances listened and understood everything we wanted from our first trip to India. The reason for our trip was my birthday - a big one - and Original Travel pulled out all the stops. OT's organisational qualities are excellent. Our driver, Jebin, was great! So charming, so helpful and going above and beyond for what we asked of him. Staff in the London office are so helpful and easily contactable even down to booking a restaurant for us before we left. We love the fact that you care about the world and choose hotels that look after our planet too."

"The planning and organisation of the trip was perfect. All the local reps and guides were great, without exception. Having a local WhatsApp contact was really helpful. The driver was excellent. We would not have changed the itinerary at all, Frances did an excellent job. She listened to our needs and had the knowledge / experience to address them. We had a bit of down time, but not too much or little."

What can you expect on India honeymoons that you won't find anywhere else?


If done properly, it is our opinion that India honeymoons still represent about the most romantic on the planet. That said, ten years ago an Indian honeymoon was a potentially bad idea. Delhi belly and romance are not the best of bed fellows, and frankly there was too great a risk of illness. Now it's all change - granted, food poisoning is still a possibility, but no more than in many destinations around the world, and the quality of hotels (and consequently the food) has improved immeasurably.

From the soaring Himalayas in the north to the seemingly endless string of white sand beaches in the south, India has something for every honeymoon desire, be it impressive landscapes, outstanding cultural sites, romantic palace hotels, relaxing mountain or coastal retreats and invariably friendly people. There are innumerable experiences that Original Travel's India team can talk you through in the search for the honeymoon itinerary perfectly designed just the way you want it.
