Winter Sun India

As large parts of India are stiflingly hot during the summer months (no one wants to be traipsing around hectic city streets in 40-degree heat and high humidity), winter is the perfect time to make the most of all this country has to offer. Whether it's your first trip to India and you're heading for the highlights of Rajasthan, or you're a seasoned pro and looking for something a bit different (the Indian Himalayas, perhaps?), we've got you covered. Our experts know India inside-out and back-to-front and know the best times to visit different parts of the country so you can either enjoy some winter sun, or head to even colder climes up in the mountains for a spot of trekking.

If it's wildlife wonders that you're after on your winter sun holiday to India, head to the centre of the country to discover some of India's many fantastic national parks, such as Bandhavgarh, Pench, Kanha and many more. You may be lucky enough to spot tigers (our experts can suggest the best places and times to go to increase your chances), panthers, hyenas, sloth bears and plenty more - including perhaps some well-known characters from Kipling's The Jungle Book.

For the city slickers and culture vultures, we could write a list as long as our arm of cities and sites worth visiting, including Rajasthan's vibrant cities of Jodphur, Jaipur and Udaipur; the 30,000 plus temples of Tamil Nadu, or the hustle and bustle of Mumbai or Calcutta.
