India’s best travel bloggers
Update:
We had released this list last year, but since then many other new bloggers have come up and few had missed this list because they were travelling at that point of time. So we have taken all the request, checked many more blogs and have added a few more which deserved to be on this list!
Hello there!
A few days back, Holidify had called out to all the travel bloggers in India with a chance to get featured in The Ultimate List of the Top Travel Bloggers in India.
The response we received was amazing – over 300 bloggers signed up for our project ‘India’s Top Travel Bloggers’! However, only the best travel bloggers in India made the cut by providing us quality, reliable reads.
Apart from Holidify, which is known for having a wide database of every kind of travel destination in India, we bring you all the ‘must-see’ blogs. Now you know where to look when Google doesn’t show you the desired search results!
We have divided this list into 10 categories so that you may easily find what you are looking for. In terms of blogs, all the categories do overlap but they have been divided so on the basis of the general impression which the blogs give out.
Voila! The Ultimate List of the Best Travel Bloggers in India!
