India is one of the rarely
bestowed countries in the world. It has everything that makes a destination
inviting, attractive and truly wonderful. There’s rich Indian hospitality based
on the ancient belief of ‘Atithi Devo Bhavah’, where guests are revered as
Gods. This is not just a teaching that’s faded with time, but a continuing
legacy where every household practices the same belief in an ardent way.
The tourism industry of India has
also borrowed this concept to make the country more inviting. The nation has in
it the various traditions and rituals based on welcoming the guests. At first
sight, they join their hands and address the visitor with ‘Namaste’ or
‘Namaskar’ in Hindi. This is a customary greeting or valediction gesture which
means ‘I Bow.’ This is done the same way Indians worship and pray in front of
the deities. The gesture represents the compassionate and welcoming nature of
the country.
The next welcoming step adhered
in the country is the gracious welcome in the form of small red dot called tika
or tilaka applied on the travellers’ forehead as a symbol of respect. Next step
is to apply some rice and sprinkle it over the guest to make an India tour
prosperous and full of happiness. Much like Indians do while performing puja
worship. Occasionally, they also offer a garland to accentuate this special
reception. Same like they perform in front of the deity.
This is an important ritual
reiterating the importance of guests in the country. Be it a foreigner or a
domestic tourist, all experience the same set of inviting hospitality during
India tour.
All India Top Tours present the
same opportunity of experiencing that special and hospitable side of India.
Another plus side that comes up with them is the culmination of engaging
sightseeing of architectural, cultural and natural side during a trip to India.
The rest of the hospitality is
accentuated with the engaging sightseeing of architectural, historical
monuments, natural attractions like hill stations, beaches, backwaters, rivers,
plateaus, forested greens and dry desert stretch. They can even participate in
the cultural fairs, festivals, wildlife safari, ayurveda and yoga retreats and
a lot more in this enchanting trail.
Moreover, it’s the ritualistic
reception that makes any Top India tour stand out in an endeavour to provide
novel and unique tour experiences to the travellers touring the country. To
