Why spend money on flight or train tickets, when you can drive? It’s more economical, but more importantly, it’s more fun. You can see the landscape and cultures slowly dissolve into each other rather than the jump-cut arrival on an aircraft. A driving holiday does require a little bit of planning and preparation, but then, that’s half the fun.
The biggest question, where do you go? While everyone flocks to the same old popular places, eating the same food and doing the same things they do at home, you can take a different route. A country as vast and diverse as India is pregnant with possibilities. It’s hard to pinpoint a place, but here are four suggestions from the four corners of the country. Treat them as suggestions. Do your homework. Most important of all, drive safe. More exhaustive information on all these destinations are available in earlier issues of Autocar India.
