Travel is supposed to be a great experience. Can it be so with a bus load of fellow travelers all paying through their noses to try and get in as many sights as possible in as few days as possible, the right way to go? Is it better to slow down and explore each place in a leisurely manner? Where is the money and the time to do what should really be done? The Western traveler in India can stretch his dollars.

Will it give them the confidence they need to take on an increasingly competitive world? Or is it just another place to play video games on their Dad's new mobile? Is relative hopping an infinitely better way to see the world? Take a few gifts, bend a little with folded hands and carry greetings from the motherland.
