India is a country epic in proportion and personality.

Whether you want to join thousands of pilgrims lighting candles at the holy Ganges, catch the Taj Mahal bathed in a golden glow at sunrise or sip a feni cocktail on Goa’s golden beaches, your DK Eyewitness travel guide makes sure you experience all that India has to offer.

India’s vast landscape is as diverse as it is awe-inspiring. Modern skyscrapers and centuries-old mosques push up against each in the cities, while tigers slink through the lush jungles separating the heights of the Himalayas from the sandy shores of the Keralan coast.

Our newly updated guide brings India to life, transporting you there like no other travel guide does with expert-led insights and advice, detailed information on all the must-see sights, inspiring photography and our trademark illustrations.

You'll discover:

   ⃦ our pick of India’s must-sees, top experiences and hidden gems
   ⃦ the best spots to eat, drink, shop and stay 
   ⃦ detailed maps and walks which make navigating the country easy
   ⃦ easy-to-follow itineraries
   ⃦ expert advice: get ready, get around and stay safe
