Three Reasons to Consider Investing In
the India Travel Market
• Indians speak, understand and use English as their
common tongue
• Indians LOVE American Culture and Emulate American
lifestyle and living
• Given the age demographics, and affinity for the US –
there will be a constant mix of first time and repeat
travelers for the long haul.
