I'm planning on going to India next May. Im a bit lost already. I want to see all the sights etc.. Where is the best place to fly into? I was quoted 340€ return to Bombay(Mumbai) is this a good airport to fly into? Or should I pay a little extra to fly into New Delhi? What is the train system like? I saw pictures of the 1st class seats and they didn't look the best but are mega cheap. Is southern India worth a look?
Thanks for any advice:)We will be there for three weeks, so please share any experiences(good or bad:p)

I was in india last year and flew into Delhi as its part of the Golden Triangle. (Delhi, Jaipur and Agra) I was only on a 2 week trip so it was an ideal starting point for me.

Travelled by train between Delhi and Jaipur and it to be fine. Seats were comfortable. Lots to see in all 3 cities.
