Alessandro Vallecchi, marketing director for Allegrini, best known for their big wines Amarone and La Poja, has an alternate life. In that he’s, well, a tour guide — specialising in India travel, bringing groups of European travellers several times a year to Varanasi, and Rajasthan, Delhi and Tamil Nadu and other such places that he says he is “very comfortable with” but which often throw off his fellow travelers.

Have you seen my colleague Amit Ranjan Rai’s photographs on nature and wildlife? Incredible as it may sound, these were clicked right in the heart of New Delhi, otherwise a conjested metropolis with crazy traffic. But there are pieces of green in the city where you can spot a rare shrub or flower, colourful birds and more…
It is not necessary to go to a wildlife park or a reserved forest area to see the wealth of animal and plant life in India where there is huge bio diversity because of the differences in geography and weather across a country that is bigger than Europe.

It’s the season for deals in India, as it is all around the world. But if you are planning to travel to India this season, be sure to stretch your dollar—hotel tariffs are being offered at a discount, food and beverage prices, even in the best of restaurants, have never been cheaper and shopping is at a discount too.
