After having been in the Industry for more than a decade and travelling the length and breadth of India and few places out of India , I decided to have a website which would be a combination of a blog and a traditional website and hence the outcome was DECCAN HOLIDAYS.

Deccan Holidays is a traditional Tour company catering to the requirement of Indiavidual or a Group traveller the difference being the way a traveller is "handled" Deccan Holidays beleive in educating the traveller before taking up the journey , a traveller comes with various notions about the tour viz the cost, the accommodation,the food ..

I hate the feeling of being at home when touring said GB.SHAW I always advocate the thought .why should anyone spend money,time and energy to feel at home ?

The idea is to feel ,understand ,absorb and live the new place ,it is always observed that many insist on eating the same food which they ate before boarding the flight/train or bus and continue eating through out the tour its a wrong way to tour -If i have to Say.

Surprisingly there are reputed tour operators who take great pride in announcing the availability of HOME FOOD while on tour .When one travels ,the terrain,the climate ,the vegetation changes and the reason being it is more suited and its very much natural.To quote one instance A group of students from South of india traveled to Uttaranchal and demanded Curd Rice at Auli(Uttaranchal) which is which is something like 3000mts above sea level just because its the students staple diet back home and something which they call Home food. Going by the standard set by some so called reputed Tour Operators we should have provide the HOme food , but instead we educated the group - cold weather and high altitude at AULI prescribes "Rajma and Roti' which generates the much necessary heat in the body to counter the cold weather, when we transpired the idea to the group they understood.Educating the tourist is the key responsibility of the tour operator and not only regarding the food but also culture ,ethics and cleanliness of the local place.

Its said that basic difference between a tourist and traveler is .. A traveller involves and adapts himself to the place he visits , while a tourist remains an outsider.
