CELEBRATE HOLI LIKE AN INSIDER!
A Patchie fave!! The Hindu Festival of Colours is pure JOY! Warm up in a local home before hitting the streets and get yourself ‘dyed’ from head to toe among the magical vibe of colour throwing, music and dance.
NOBODY DOES COLOUR LIKE INDIA:
Continuous shots of colour! Red Forts of New Delhi and Agra; Pink City of Jaipur and its Amber Fort; Blue City of Jodhpur; White City of Udaipur; and while not ‘official’, the yellow – or saffron – of Varanasi.
A VILLAGE EXPERIENCE?
Correct! A 50,000-small village in India. It might be all rural with old-school artisans and the speed set to slow, but you’ll get your (colourful) sari on and memorise some folk dance moves to try out later.
HANG OUT WITH LOCAL WOMEN:
Go beyond sightseeing and forge meaningful connections. Sure, you’ll still see the Taj Mahal, but on the flip side you’ll craft and cook alongside local Rajasthani women, and see Jaipur through the eyes of a female-driven rickshaw
NORTH INDIAN FOOD ADVENTURES:
What a spread! With heaps of colourific regional and sub-types of cuisine going on – rooftop feasts, cultural dinners, home-cooked meals, Indian-style high teas, street foods and more will linger on in your memory.
