Mumbai, India’s financial capital, is a bustling metropolis filled with iconic landmarks such as the Gateway of India, Marine Drive, and the UNESCO-listed Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus. Known for its vibrant culture, commercial hub, and entertainment industry, Mumbai offers an unforgettable experience for travellers with its unique blend of tradition and modernity.

Almaty, Kazakhstan’s largest city, is a scenic gateway to the mountains with a fascinating mix of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and modern sophistication. A past Silk Road trading post, it’s now a thriving hub for business and tourism, popular among Indian travellers for its affordability, visa-free access, and stunning landscapes.

Tashkent, Uzbekistan’s capital, is a lively city rich in history and architecture, famed for its Soviet-era landmarks, bustling bazaars, and proximity to historic sites like Samarkand and Bukhara. It is growing as a centre for trade, education, and regional collaboration.

Tbilisi, Georgia’s dynamic capital, combines medieval charm with a modern vibe. Iconic sights include Narikala Fortress, sulphur baths, and the historic Old Town. With its scenic backdrop of the Caucasus Mountains and booming tourism scene, Tbilisi is becoming a key hub for culture, business, and digital nomads.
