But some places are the most enchanting when it’s monsoon. Winters in icy places sometimes see roadblocks. But the beauty of snow-covered places is unmatched. Otherwise, the roads are fantastic during all the other weathers. So, you have to weigh the consequences and decide what would be the right time for you to take this tour.
  • Types of places you’ll visit through the famous road trips to various parts in India — Religious, heritage, cultural, historical, adventurous, beach, mountains, and nightlife.
