India

Jodhpur, Rajasthan

India is the seventh largest country in the world and is also one of the world’s most beautiful countries, and if it’s not already on your bucket list, it definitely should be.

Many first time visitors to India choose the ‘Golden Triangle’, which is made up of Agra, Delhi, and Jaipur, plus a bit of Rajasthan added on, if time permits. However, there is so much to see in this diverse and spectacular country and we would be able to suggest the perfect itinerary for you.

 Visas:

You will require an Indian Visa to visit India, (with the exception of citizens of Bhutan and Nepal who do not need a visa). It is essential that you apply for your visa in advance before planning to travel to India.

The best way is to apply for an online Indian Visa as it is much faster, cheaper, and for ease, gets emailed to you, so all you have to do is print out your visa.

All British nationals are now required to apply for a visa to enter South Africa. For more information on visas contact the South African High Commission or the South African Department of Home Affairs.

Botswana

Lush and green Botswana

Botswana may have diamond-rich deserts but it is the shimmer of the Okavango Delta’s crystal clear water, the perplexing perspective of the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans and the sight of hundreds of majestic elephants in the Chobe National Park that make it a rare beauty. A country of such wild variety, dramatic scenery and untamed parks, Botswana is one of Africa’s diamonds, and one to definitely add to your travel radar.
