But have now been thinking since reading some posts that weather may be better suited to starting in south and heading north . is that right?also my itinary is as detailed as i'vce written above (delhi, goa and mumbai) so any must see places to stop off at woul db esuggested. am of course looking at destinations forums and checking out my lonely planet for some ideas. thanks xx |

Yes, you'd be better off landing at Mumbai and exiting from Delhi.
In the two months at your disposal you may cover: Mumbai - 4 days. Goa - 15 days. Rajasthan - 15 days. Delhi - 4 days Agra - 2 days Varanasi - 3 days Lucknow - 3 days The balance days you may spend in the hills - Uttaranchal or Himachal Pradesh. From Lucknow, Uttaranchal will be more convenient than Himachal.

i've looked at info on most of the places on IM but i felt a bit inundated with information, as i did with the lonely planet. now i have some places to focus on it'll be a lot easier to check them out.
thanks. xx |
