German travellers are among the most dedicated repeat visitors to India, and two themes stand out. The first is Ayurveda: Kerala's beach and backwater resorts offer multi-day panchakarma programmes, and a quiet week there rounds off a cultural tour beautifully. The second is the outdoors - trekking in Ladakh or Himachal in summer, and tiger safaris in Ranthambore, Bandhavgarh or Kanha in the dry months. For culture beyond the Taj Mahal, the temple sculptures of Khajuraho, the ruins of Hampi and the rock-cut caves of Ellora reward travellers who like their history in depth. Punctual express trains such as the Delhi-Agra Shatabdi make day connections refreshingly efficient.
India rewards the systematic traveller: the country counts more than forty UNESCO World Heritage sites, and several cluster conveniently into circuits. From Delhi - itself home to Humayun's Tomb, the Qutb Minar and the Red Fort - the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and abandoned Fatehpur Sikri line up within a two-hour radius; a central India loop adds Khajuraho's temples and the Buddhist stupas of Sanchi; the Deccan holds Ajanta, Ellora and the ruined city of Hampi. Nature is on the list too, from Kaziranga's one-horned rhinos to the Western Ghats. Wander durch Indien: German-speaking guides are available in the main tourist centres if requested ahead, hotel standards in the heritage segment are high, and bottled or filtered water is the one rule worth treating as gesetzlich - never tap water, even for brushing teeth.
