India derives its root from a rich past, both culturally and historically and this is the manfest in the wealth of her cities and their architecture, in the arts, in the realms of music and dance. But there is modern idiom too in India, and with it, an interpretive rendition in the form of jazz and ballet, pop and soul, providing the right medley also for an excellence in the classical and the "joie de vivre" of folk performances.

But India is first a destination of impressive centuries, old cities and modern holiday resorts, of tranquil hill retreats and sunny beaches, of fine cuisine and excellent hotels of the highest international standards

And while India extols its many wonders, the infrastructure of a well geared incentive country moves into shape. Organising theme parties that lend life to the country's royal past. making reservations in deluxe hotels, air-conditioned coaches or aboard jet aircraft.
