Tyre manufacturer Michelin announced the launch of its second Green Guide in India. The Delhi, Agra and Jaipur Green Guide edition is the second in the series, following Chennai (Tamil Nadu) edition in early 2013. The guide encourages travelers from across the world to explore the rich heritage and culture of diverse India.
The new Michelin Green Guide Delhi, Agra and Jaipur encourages travelers to discover northern India’s Golden Triangle, with an added perspective on sustainable tourism. This Green Guide proposes itineraries for exploring the vestiges of the short-lived city Fatehpur Sikri, spotting tigers on a jeep safari in Ranthambore National Park, and experiencing the local colour at Pushkar’s annual camel fair and of course, marveling at the Taj Mahal. Michelin’s celebrated star-rating system for attractions, detailed maps and recommendations for restaurants and accommodations will help travelers experience the best of the region.
Speaking about the initiative, Cynthia Ochterbeck, Editorial Director of Michelin Travel Partner said, “After launching the Green Guide to Chennai and Tamil Nadu, we wanted to add another edition which would reflect the rich culture and heritage of India. It is impossible to tell India’s tale without talking about the magnificent art and architecture of the Mughal era. Hence we came up with Delhi, Agra and Jaipur- the golden triangle with an added perspective on sustainable tourism. At Michelin, our core mission is to enhance mobility around the world not only through innovative Michelin tyres, but also through our flagship mobility assets such as the Green Guide.”
