Touring Pilgrimages in India has been a very popular activity
among the Indians as well as among foreigners visiting India
for the last many decades. For an Indian, visiting the sacred
pilgrimages is something he inevitably has to do once in his
lifetime. Taking this need into consideration, we felt that
formulating a travel plan to all the pilgrim centres in India
would prove very handy for the desirous visitors. Following
is the plan of pilgrimage tour covering pilgrimages all over
India. The planned tour begins in Varanasi and proceeds as shown in the sequence.

Touring Northeastern States in India has not been a very popular
activity among the Indians and among foreigners visiting India
for the reason that these states are not adequately provided with
proper roads and safety. Nevertheless the natural beauty of this area
cannot be undermined. It is an adventurer's paradise. For such adventure
loving people, we felt that formulating a travel plan would prove very handy.
Following is the plan for visiting these places full of adventure and
natural beauty. The planned tour begins in Parmadan and proceeds as shown in the sequence.

Western India is so to say the most developed region in the country
as far as industrial development is concerned. However, as a natrual
consequence of industrialisation, the natural endowmnts have depleted
to a large extent. Though there are a number of picturesque hill stations
and lakes, an effect of the industrialisation is visible in this region
Transportation in this region is no doubt of a good quality. Gujrat
and Maharashtra are the industrially developed states while Goa is
a tourist attraction because of its lovely clean and well maintained
beaches and churches. The planned tour begins in Dadra & Nagar Haveli and proceeds as shown in the sequence.
