Best Honeymoon Tour Packages in India

After all, one of the world's most famous buildings, the Taj Mahal, is located in Agra, India. Built to honor the wife of Emperor Shah Jahan in the mid 1600s, the Taj Mahal actually serves as her tomb. If that's not true love, what is?

Because India is such a vast land, a tour package is the best way to experience it. Instead of trying to see it all on your own, a package tour can categorize the experience, giving you the best chance at having a rich experience in this exotic country.

India's Heritage
India is home to many monuments that tell the story of this ancient land. A heritage tour helps you see the sites of India, as well as the people and their culture. A typical heritage tour would include visits to the Taj Mahal, Qutab Minar and Humayun's Tomb Delhi, Mandawa Castle Rajasthan, the Elephanta Caves in Mumbai and the Sun Temple in Konarak.

To get a bit more specific, take a heritage tour of North India and you will visit some of the most popular sites in the country. You'll be introduced to the world of Rajas and Maharajas and their magnificent forts and palaces. In fact, many of the palaces have been converted into international heritage hotels, so you can experience a truly opulent stay. You can also take an elephant ride to the mountainous fortress, Amber. Plan on a 14-night stay to truly see and experience North India.

Cave Tour
If you want to visit Mumbai, be sure to plan a side trip to the ancient caves of Ajanta and Ellora. Carved by Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain Monks over the centuries, they were used to house the monks and give them a place to worship. The carvings on the cave walls are some of the best examples of Classical Indian Art. You will need at least a day or two to see the caves.

Adventure
If you are looking for an active tour, India is the perfect destination. Because of its vast terrain, India can accommodate any number of adventurous jaunts, including bike tours, trekking tours, a camel safari across the desert of Rajasthan, a jeep safari, river rafting trip or rock climbing adventure. You will even find some snow-capped mountains where you can ski.

Animal Lovers
If you would like to get close to nature on your honeymoon vacation, India offers several wildlife tours that fit the bill. You can tour one of India's several tiger reserves to see the great beasts in their natural habitat. You can choose to stay in a reserve built on the former hunting grounds of the former aristocracy, with electric-powered guesthouses, or rough it in a bungalow with basic hotels.

Or maybe you would prefer a short wildlife tour that can be customized to meet your travel schedule. You will visit a jungle resort and take a nature walk into the jungle near Delhi.

No matter what your specific interests, India is a perfectly exotic destination for a romantic honeymoon getaway.
