India is full of surprises! From royal palaces to sacred temples, from street food that blows your mind to hidden gems in the middle of nowhere, this country keeps you on your toes. And when you travel with Amsah Tours, you’re in for a real treat—adventure, history, and some of the coolest experiences you can imagine.
Check out these top must-see spots in India!
1. See Tigers in the Wild
There’s nothing quite like spotting a Royal Bengal Tiger in its natural habitat. India is home to 75% of the world’s tiger population, and thanks to conservation efforts, their numbers are bouncing back.
Most people think of Ranthambore National Park when it comes to tiger spotting—and Amsah Tours takes travelers there often—but if you’re looking for something off the beaten path, head to Madhya Pradesh. This state has seen a massive 50% increase in its tiger population! Bandhavgarh National Park, with its thick jungles and rolling hills, has one of the highest tiger densities in the world.
2. Dive into Hyderabad’s Nizam History
Hyderabad isn’t as famous as Delhi or Mumbai, but trust us, it should be! This South Indian city was once home to the Nizam, the richest man in the world. Back in the day, diamond mines in Golconda made Hyderabad the ultimate place for luxury and wealth.
One must-visit spot? The Taj Falaknuma Palace. This former royal residence is now a hotel, and legend has it the Nizam used a massive 185-carat diamond as a paperweight! That diamond—called the Jacob Diamond—is now the fifth-largest polished diamond in the world. Talk about flexing!
3. Spot the Mysterious Black Panther
Ever heard of Saya, the black panther? This rare melanistic leopard roams Nagarhole National Park, part of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. If you’re lucky, you might catch a glimpse of this shadowy predator. Even if you don’t, the park itself is a stunner, with the scenic Kabini River weaving through its landscape.
4. Explore the Wild Beauty of Kaziranga
Imagine a place that feels untouched by time. That’s Kaziranga National Park in northeastern India. Nestled between the Brahmaputra River and the Karbi Anglong Hills, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to the world’s largest population of one-horned rhinoceroses.
Back in the late 1800s, only about 200 rhinos were left, but today, there are nearly 3,000! If you’ve ever dreamed of seeing these prehistoric-looking creatures up close, now’s the time to visit.
5. Step into India’s Ancient Caves
In Aurangabad district, you’ll find some of India’s most mind-blowing cave temples, dating all the way back to the 1st century AD. The Ajanta Caves, carved with nothing but hammers and chisels, were once home to about 200 monks. These caves were lost to the jungle for centuries before being rediscovered.
Then there’s the Ellora Caves, an epic complex featuring Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain rock-cut temples. The most jaw-dropping of them all? The Kailasa Temple, the world’s largest monolithic structure, carved straight out of a mountain. It’s an engineering miracle that has to be seen to be believed.
6. Go Wild in Gir National Park
Did you know that India is the only place outside Africa where you can see lions in the wild? Welcome to Gir National Park, the ultimate home of the Asiatic Lion.
These lions are different from their African cousins—they grow up to 9 feet long, have bigger tails, and thicker belly folds instead of big fluffy manes. If you’re a wildlife lover, this is one place you can’t miss!
7. Hunt for Snow Leopards in Ladakh
Okay, we’re not talking about an actual “hunt,” but spotting a snow leopard in the wild is the ultimate bucket-list moment. There are only about 4,000-6,500 of these big cats left in the world, and in India, there are only 250-500.
If you want the best chance of seeing one, head to Ladakh between December and March. That’s when these rare cats come down from the mountains in search of food. But even if you don’t spot one, Ladakh’s monasteries, epic landscapes, and Tibetan culture make it a place you’ll never forget.
8. Discover India’s Most Stunning Palace
Rajasthan is famous for its palaces, but Jodhpur’s Umaid Bhawan Palace is on another level. Sitting atop a hill, this palace is part luxury hotel, part royal residence. It’s one of the most beautiful palaces in India, and yes, the royal family still lives there!
