India 

Overview

A most astounding country for travellers, India is also the second most populated country in the world. It holds everything a traveller could want, lush scenery, tradition and culture, people and food like nowhere else. The large size of the country means you probably won’t get to see everything in one trip, but a great way to start is by renting a condominium in one the megacities of Delhi, Bangalore or Mumbai. Or if cities aren’t for you a colonial style holiday house by the sea in Goa could be the answer to all your troubles.

North

In the north and centre of India are some of the most famous cities and landmarks. The golden triangle of Delhi, Jaipur and Agra, home to the Taj Mahal. This world famous, white marble mausoleum was built by the Mogul emperor Shah Jahan for his wife, what devotion! There is also the Agra Fort to visit. Delhi is a good place to start and it could make sense to rent an apartment here to base yourself.

South

In the south you will find the city of Bengaluru, the burgeoning hub of the IT industry in India. This bustling city is modern and probably one of the more westernised of all Indian cities, with student and workers alike filling the streets. Right at the southern coast is the region of Kerala, a perfect place to rent a holiday house and explore the backwaters.

East and West

In the East is the old commercial centre of British East India trade, the city of Kolkata, which is a blend of colonialism and tradition. To the West of the country the city of Mumbai, known as a cosmopolitan city and the centre of finance, fashion and entertainment. To the south of Mumbai further down the coast are the beaches and chilled retreat of Goa, still a popular place to rent a holiday house and relax from all the hectic travelling through bustling cities.
