India 'great for adventure as well as culture'
If you're looking for a unique break that includes as much adventure as it does cultural interests, India is a destination well worth considering.
While traditionally a popular destination for those keen to experience some of the nation's iconic festivals or its colourful heritage, Rajen Habib Khwaja, secretary at the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, says it's great for adventure too.
With activities such as rafting and tackling mountains on offer, there's plenty to do if you're keen to get experience the great outdoors.
"Besides, fantastic cultural and heritage tourism products, India today offers a range of new products in adventure and sports tourism," he comments.
And there is so much to do, he states, that they you'll probably need to come back several times if you want to see and do it all.
Recent figures from STR Global show that this potent combination seems to be working, with India's hotels seeing six per cent more occupants in October 2010.
