India with kids is full of exciting adventures! Children will love washing an elephant in the river, playing on the beautiful beaches, and seeing the Taj Mahal one of the most famous Wonders of the World!
India is a chaotic lively country with lots of charm. It will be a shock for most children-but if they are properly prepared and know a bit about the culture it will be one of the most memorable trips of their lives!
If traveling to India with a baby or toddler be sure to bring enough baby formula and baby food for your trip. Diapers can be readily found but may not be very good quality. The roads and sidewalks are generally too crowded and bumpy for a stroller. A lightweight stroller, however, will be useful at some tourist attractions. A baby knapsack carrier is ideal. Be sure to only drink bottled water, be fully vaccinated and keep your toddler or baby's hands very clean with hand sanitizer. They will get lots of attention here!
Hire a Guide whenever possible at the sights. Try to find a guide that will engage your child. Most monuments will have guides outside and are very cheap to hire. They can really help explain the attraction's history and make your visit more interesting and meaningful!
Citizens from most countries will require a visa. You must arrange this in advance-there is no visa on arrival option. Children of all ages require a visa for their family holidays to India.

New Delhi is usually the start and finish of the popular tourist route The Golden Triangle.
A tour of the Golden Triangle is a great way to travel in India with kids. Start your visit in the lively city of New Delhi. From there you head to Agra to see the Taj Mahal and on to Jaipur to see the beautiful Pink City.
You can take the train to travel between each city and it is usually a shorter traveling time then to drive. You can then hire a driver and guide to show you around each town or jump in a rickshaw and hire one of the guides hanging around each site. The other option is to hire a car or van (make sure it is air conditioned!) and driver for the entire tour of the Golden Triangle and possibly a guide. This can sometimes be more economical and you will have transportation in each town. It is a 5-6 hour drive between each city.
