The world's 7th largest country, India has a total land area of more than 1 million square miles and a coastline over 3,500 miles long. It may be most well known for the stunning Taj Mahal, but it is also home to the majestic Himalayan mountain range, which cuts a border between India, Nepal and China.

The country's rich history is still evident in the palaces and temples through Rajasthan, famous for the Rajput warriors who defended the territory and carved the territory into princely states. India is also home to 59 national parks and more than 250 sanctuaries where you may find more than 250 mammal species and 1200 recorded bird species. Nature lovers are drawn to places like Corbett National Park - India's first tiger reserve - in hopes of seeing the elusive and majestic Bengal tiger. You might also find other species indiginous to the region like the white tiger, the Asian lion, lion-tailed macaque and monal pheasant.

We offer two programs on a year-round basis, both of which will provide a first-time visitor with a comprehensive look at this fascinating country. We also offer seasonal safaris to Corbett National Park along with other national parks and sanctuaries. Look for those programs to operate between October-March.

Our India programs are based on just two people traveling together. With your own private car and driver, your trip to India will be enhanced by the up-close look of the countryside you'll get as you travel from city to city. And remember, UTG can customize any program to India. Ask us for details.
