Immerse yourself in the cricket on England’s five match Test series in India in 2024, and explore the very best India has to offer with Experience Travel Group, the experts in immersive travel to Asia.

England will tour India from January to March 2024, and it promises to be one of the most exciting series in the contests history. Ben Stokes’ side are riding high on their Bazball successes, while India come into the series having made back-to-back World Test Championship finals. To be a part of the marquee series, Experience Travel Group are the experts in tailor-made holidays to Asia and can help you build your perfect adventure.

What is going to be different about the tour in 2024 compared to previous tours?

This series is the ideal opportunity to experience off-the-beaten-track India alongside the cricket.

For a first-time tourist, the first Test on 25-29 January is a great option. Hyderabad is an ideal gateway to discovering India and the city can be reached on a direct flight from the UK with British Airways. There’s lots to do around the city aside from the cricket, such as visiting the Charminar and the Qutub Tombs. It’s also easy to visit Goa from Hyderabad, with the tourist haven just a one hour flight away.

For the more adventurous, there is an eight hour train to get to the second Test in Visakhapatnam on February 2-6. Attempting to get to Rajkot for the third Test or the fourth Test at Ranchi is going to be more difficult. They are harder venues to get to with no direct flights or simple transfers.

Rajkot is situated in Gujarat which is a dry state, and whilst Ranchi is MS Dhoni’s home ground, it doesn’t have many tourist attractions aside from the cricket.

For the more experienced traveller, the fifth Test on March 7-11 in Dharamshala is ideal. Dharamshala is in the foothills of the Himalayas and offers stunning scenery, a pleasant climate, and is the home of rich Tibetan culture.
