My Second Visit to India

I originally booked the trip by myself but my brother, Mark decided to come. I have traveled alone now for many years with Cox & Kings and felt very fortunate to experience such an amazing place with another person.

The C&K staff is the best to work with. They have helped me pick many interesting places around the world to travel to and have put together itineraries that one can only dream of. I recommend traveling with C&K whole heartedly. My travel agent is Arlette Strauss.

I visited India once before (4 years ago) and have not been able to get it out of mind. Though there are still many places to see in the world, I was completely drawn to returning to India. I love the people, the food, the culture and the scenery. India is a spiritually enriching place on many different levels. The shopping is great as well! I think I bought every tunic in India!

Our most memorable moments were spent with the people of India. Mark and I spent a lot of time talking with our guides, local shopkeepers and hotel staff. The hotels that we stayed at were particularly spectacular in all of the cities we visited, and the staff was very outgoing and respectful. Our guides were also fantastic. They are are wonderful representations of India and Cox & Kings. Each one was very open and eager to share the many wonderful things of India.

The Indian people are extremely gracious and open regarding their beliefs and culture. Varanasi was definitely our highlight. To experience this holy place is difficult to describe. It must be seen to be believed.

My advice for Cox & Kings travelers to India: You will see things that will disarm you and inspire you. Visit the country without hesitation and keep an open mind.

I hope to travel to South Africa next year—with Cox & Kings of course!
