Currently thinking of visiting india - main attraction is the food but also sight seeing and a bit of relaxing / partying!

Thinking - Manchester to New Delhi, and visit there, Agra and Jaipur over about a week. Then fly Jaipur to Kochi and see Karala for about 3 days, train up to Goa and stay there about 3 days. Then either fly home from Goa or continue on train to see Mumbai.

Starting mid-November.

Take 2 - 2.5 weeks

Currently expecting to do it alone.

Any suggestions?!

Thanks for the advice so far. Yeah I'm not too bothered about Dehli but there looks to be some great forts etc nearby and Agra is just for the Taj Mahal, mainly want to see Jaipur. Want to get out of the city a bit into green lush countryside, see the people who live out there and try the food.

Only just starting the research now - the Kerala backwaters look amazing, I just put Goa as it's on the train journey back and there and Mumbai will presumably be better for flights. Also I'd like to finish with some beaches, drinking and relaxing!

Tiger sanctuary sounds good providing it is a proper sanctuary and not just a zoo disguised as one!
