Where should a backpacker visit in India?

[Dan]

Hello Stakers!

I have a really good friend about to take off on an adventure exploring India in the coming weeks. I was wondering if anyone has any secret gems or breathtaking experiences she should check out while over there? Does't have to be touristy

Depends on what your friend likes , there can be many places to visit ! One of them would can be "Rann Utsav"  dont know if its on right now , but i have heard its awesome ! If your friend likes valleys and hill stations - Kasol , Manali , KheerGanga !

Historical monuments/places - Taj Mahal , humanyun's tomb , Qutub Minar and more....!

He can Go To Jaisalmer or any other city in rajasthan (my friends went there  , good place) 

If he has some specific interests i can still narrow down the list !

A Place that can give you a Wonderful Travel Experience- Kerala

A travel is meaningful when it gives both enjoyment and something new to learn and experience. So every travelers dream is to visit a unique place. Kerala is an ideal destination and well known in the world tourism as the God’s own country. After a Kerala trip you can find out why it is called as so. This small land of greenery is located on the lap of Western Ghats and adjacent to the Arabian Sea. It is rich in magnificent culture and heritage. This Southern tip of India also known as the “Land of Spices”, during ancient time Kerala is one of the major trade centers in India. 100% literacy and High human Development Index shows how much this state is different from other part of India. Tourism is one of the major revenue of the Kerala Government. There are lots of new ventures and plans are proposed and conducted for the development of tourism. Responsible tourism and health tourism are some of them.

I think Andaman Island is such a place in India. It is one of the amazing tourist destinations with beautiful white sand beaches, greenish mangroves and palms, rich and colourful corals etc. Andaman flourished with exciting flora and fauna so it is also known as Paradise in the earth. The white sands together with dark green palms and bluish cirrus make Andaman beaches one of the topmost beaches in the world. In Andaman, every single beach has its own speciality. Some are perfect for watching coral reefs and some are for water funs. But the majority of the beaches are awesome for boating and sightseeing. Make use of available amazing Andaman tour packages, for enjoying the beauty of Andaman. Andaman beaches also offer various water sports like kayaking, underwater diving, snorkelling, watching coral reefs, scuba diving, boating, cruise trip to nearby islands, surfing, parasailing, glass bottom boating, banana boat riding, undersea walking, sports fishing or angling and jet skiing. Radha Nagar beach, Laxmanpur beach, Ross and Smith island beach, Guitar island beach, Lalaji bay beach, Aamkunj beach, Wandoor beach, Kramatang beach and Merk bay beach are the top ten beaches in Andaman. The beaches are filled with white sands and greenish palms. Everyone must visit these Islands at least one time in your life.

Things to do in Andaman

• Scuba Diving

 

• Jet Skiing

• Parasailing

• Kayaking

I see a lot of interesting sharing from the stakers. It made me curious and wants to have the opportunity to come to India and experience these interesting things.

I have never been to India, but I love Indian films, especially the ones starring Shah Rukh Khan, and from some of the films I watched, Goa is a beautiful place

[rockingmonk]

No one can fully explore India, it's takes many births to understand India.

In my opinion, Kerala is the best place to have a backpacker visit to India. The specialty of Kerala is we will get all types of climate and we will just start feeling the climate once we reached there. Kerala is just an amazing place for both honeymooners and for the tourist also. Its a paradise with the scenic beauty of nature. Basically I'm from Chennai I had a mesmerizing 8- 10 days travel experience in Kerala with my family and believe me there are more and more to see in each place. Each place has its own beauty and if you are planning to visit Kerala I suggest to choose a tour traveling partner so that your journey will be safe and easy-going at low Packages. We just enjoyed each and every moment in Kerala and I suggest Kerala for every backpackers.

I think Hampi is one of the best a backpacker should visit.  Because,  Hampi was the last capital of Vijayanagar, one of the greatest Hindu kingdoms in India’s history.

This depends on what your friend prefers. There are beautiful places in India that he should visit, but he prefers to have a tour guide with him

Kerala is one of the fastest growing states in India. It is situated at southern coastal region of India .Kerala is formed on November 1 1956 under state reorganization act. Kerala tourism is developed day by day. In 1980 Kerala is a not famous tourist spots in India. But at time of 2007 government started shopping festivals in Kerala , thus Kerala tourism got its popularity in world wide .So we fix that Kerala is perfect place for family tour, group tour, and for honeymoon trip.
