At Pinoy Tourism, we bring you closer to the real India—the land that dazzles, hums, and overwhelms in the best possible way. India isn’t just a destination; it’s an experience that stays with you long after you’ve left. From sari-draped streets and the ivory glow of the Taj Mahal, to the roar of tigers in Ranthambore and the sparkle of Bollywood in Mumbai, every moment here is stitched with intensity.
This is a country of contrasts: barren tiger forests that give way to bustling bazaars, snow-capped Himalayan peaks that tower over scorching plains, and palaces that sit beside labyrinthine slums—often on the same train route. In Rajasthan, royalty lives on in the grandeur of forts and palaces. In Delhi, the preserved havelis whisper stories of centuries past. And everywhere, the food—spicy, aromatic, addictive—becomes its own unforgettable journey.
Yes, India can be gritty, dense, and overwhelming. But in between, it gifts you soul-stirring temples, breathtaking encounters, and an openness that transforms the way you see the world.

Our top 5 things to do in India

Ride through Old Delhi on a rickshaw

Hold on tight as you navigate buzzing alleys filled with honking cars, spice stalls, and chai vendors. Glide past crumbling havelis and pause for a kulfi—India’s answer to ice cream—in flavors like mango or pomegranate.

Stand in awe of the Taj Mahal

No photograph can prepare you for Agra’s marble masterpiece. Commissioned in 1653 as a monument of love, the Taj Mahal glitters with gemstones and whispers with history. Sunrise is when its magic truly unfolds.

Go on safari in Ranthambore National Park

Climb into an open-top jeep and keep your eyes peeled for Bengal tigers, leopards, and marsh crocodiles. Between sightings, explore ancient forts and banyan trees that have stood for centuries.

Experience the royalty of Rajasthan

Palaces that float on lakes. Halls of mirrors that sparkle under candlelight. Rajasthan is India’s storybook, where desert landscapes give way to regal cities like Udaipur and Jaipur, still echoing with royal grandeur.

Step inside Bollywood in Mumbai

In India, cinema is a religion—and Bollywood is its temple. Visit a working studio, spot megastar mansions, and watch the magic unfold on set. You don’t need to know Hindi to be swept up in the drama and passion.

Best museums in India

New Delhi

National Museum

Journey through India’s vast history—from prehistoric relics to intricate miniature paintings and jewel-encrusted treasures. This museum is the perfect introduction to the country’s layered story.

Mumbai

Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (CSMVS)

An Indo-Gothic masterpiece housing 50,000 artifacts. Explore its halls of archaeology, art, and natural history before unwinding in the serene gardens outside—a rare oasis in bustling Mumbai.

Udaipur

City Palace

Four centuries in the making, Udaipur’s City Palace is a lakeside marvel. Wander its courtyards and museum halls to glimpse the artistry, artifacts, and royal grandeur of Rajasthan’s proud past.

Best food in India

Parathas

Golden, flaky bread stuffed with spiced vegetables, paneer, or eaten plain to scoop up rich curries. A dish as old as Sanskrit scriptures—and still beloved today.

Varan Bhaat Diva

Goa’s version of comfort food. Rice, peas, beans, and spices simmer into a dish that feels like a warm hug—often served to comfort the sick, but enjoyed by everyone.

Chicken Cafreal

A Goan delicacy with Portuguese roots. Herb-marinated chicken, shallow-fried and served with potatoes and citrus wedges—proof that India’s cuisine is as diverse as its history.

What to pack for a tour in India

What to Pack

Pack for sustainable travel

Reusable water bottle, refillable toiletries, and eco-friendly bags go a long way here.

A few good books

India’s train journeys are long and scenic, the perfect time to lose yourself in a novel.

Light, modest clothing

Stay cool while respecting cultural norms at temples and religious sites.

Medication for stomach upsets

Even careful travelers get Delhi belly, better safe than sorry.

Water purification tools

Bottles, tablets, or gadgets to keep you hydrated and healthy.

Wet wipes & sanitizer

India is lively, dusty, and messy; freshen up on the go.

Other things to know before you go

Depending on your nationality, you’ll need a valid passport and possibly a visa to enter India. Check well in advance, and remember that many countries require your passport to be valid for at least 3–6 months beyond your return date.
