This was a great trip full of wonderful and varied experiences plus a number of highlights including: Bodh Gaya and important Buddhist sites, Varanasi, the Taj Mahal, Shimla and The Golden Temple at Amritsar. Travelling by train proved to be fascinating and a good way to meet people, even if it was not always totally comfortable. Pemba was an excellent tour guide, caring, well organised, knowledgeable and extremely likeable. I would certainly recommend the trip as a good way to explore this part of northern India.

The golden triangle was everything I expected and more. We had excellent tour guides who are very knowledgeable about the sites that we visited, their history, and local customs. Each hotel we stayed at was comfortable and the service was outstanding. The added a trip to Amritsar was also very memorable as the Golden temple is very spectacular. I also visited Dharmsala whose natural beauty and small winding streets were a nice change from the hustle and bustle of the large cities. I highly recommend Le passage of India as a tour guide. Deepak went over and above to ensure that we were comfortable throughout the trip. If you’re an enthusiast about world history a visit to India should be at the top of your list. The Taj Mahal is indescribable, however the Jaipur, Delhi, Amritsar, and Dharmsala also offer memories that your cherish for lifetime.
