Goway Travel’s Splendours of India is a premier escorted tour departing March 15, timed for Holi. “Holi is perhaps the liveliest of all of the Hindu festivals, marking the end of winter and beginning of spring,” says Goway. “Occurring during the Hindu month of Phalguna (ie. Usually March), this overwhelming festival is otherwise known as the ‘colour’ or ‘powder’ festival, as brightly coloured powder and water is thrown at each other in good spirit. Presenting fantastic photographic opportunities (and an excuse to get laundry done!), this isn’t something you’ll forget.” The 18-day trip across most of India is part of Goway’s Holiday of a Lifetime Series, led by a professional guide. Prices start at $7,999. See Goway.com.
