Destination
Northern India - Delhi, Agra, Ranthambore, Jaipur, and Udaipur
Accommodations and/or DMC/On Site
This was hosted by a DMC - Peirce and Leslie. The hotels we stayed at were all Oberoi properties.
How to get to
The best way is to fly into Delhi.
Recommended For (families, couples, corporate, celebrations, etc)
I would recommend India for anyone and everyone.
Not-to-be-Missed Experience or Activity
Going to Agra to see the Taj Mahal is definitely one of those "pinch me" moments in life. Having the opportunity to spend some time in Ranthambore to go on tiger safari - and actually seeing a couple of tigers - is another incredible experience.
Favorite culinary aspect of the hotel or region
Honestly - all of the food was incredible throughout. I had a life-changing samosa from a street vendor in Delhi that I'm STILL thinking about. Everything is so vibrant and flavorful that I truly had a moment of panic halfway through the trip, wondering if I would still enjoy the flavors back home again!
Favorite Wellness aspect of the hotel or region
All of the fresh food is incredible and there are so many options to choose from. Mango lassis may not be considered wellness, but are absolutely worth having, especially in Jaipur. If you head further south, you'll be running into the home of Ayurveda. While this is more prevalent in the south, you can still see its influences in the Oberoi properties we stayed at.
Favorite amenity
The delicious chocolates and fresh fruit in each hotel were such a fun surprise when arriving back at the room.
Otherwise, the fitness center in Delhi was really great and the yoga sessions in Ranthambore were personalized.
Kudos to: refers to a guide, chef, member of hotel team, etc. that went out of their way
Everyone was wonderful. Our guide, Shatan, stayed with us throughout and provided context for what we were seeing and experiencing. He was truly a friend throughout the whole trip!
