India and Nepal Tours and Trips

Natural beauty, wildlife, art, culture, history—India and Nepal have it all, and in abundance. A trip to India and Nepal offers sights and experiences like no other. At one moment you are walking among the majestic Himalayas, at the other you are matching your pace with the frenetic rhythm of a city, and the next you are on a safari to spot animals like Bengal tiger and one-horned rhinoceros. Here are the two lands of contrasts, where travelers come in search of new experiences and self-discovery. See the natural and man-made wonders like Mount Everest and Taj Mahal, visit spiritual centers like Lumbini and Varanasi, and take a sightseeing tour of Kathmandu Valley and Old Delhi. A tour of Nepal and India will offer you experiences that will last your lifetime.
