Imagine waking up to the golden sunrise over the Taj Mahal, or finding tranquility in the birthplace of Buddha at Lumbini—these are just a few of the unforgettable moments awaiting you on the "Highlights of Northern India & Nepal" tour package. Crafted with comfort and discovery in mind, this 15-day guided journey is particularly well-suited for seniors seeking a moderate-paced adventure filled with culture and natural beauty. Beginning in vibrant New Delhi and concluding in Kathmandu, the itinerary seamlessly weaves together iconic destinations such as Bodhgaya, Chitwan National Park, Jaipur, and more. Alongside witnessing the architectural marvels and spiritual sites of North India, you'll also experience the breathtaking landscapes of Nepal, including the Himalayan vistas and wildlife-rich Chitwan National Park. A dawn boat ride on the Ganges, the pink hues of Jaipur, and the rare opportunity to spot rhinos in their natural habitat are among the tour’s highlights. The unique selling point of this trip lies in its blend of spiritual, cultural, and natural wonders across two remarkable countries, all managed with the ease of inclusive accommodations, transport, and meals.

The Best trip to seel there is in Northern India and Nepal

This is a great trip as you get to see all the best spots in North India and Nepal, there are some long drives over bumpy roads in Nepal especially. Prepare fro some longer drives but this allows you to see the country side and get away from the larger cities. Bring some good walking shoes as we do a day hike in Pokhara.

A wonderful tour of two amazing and delightfully different countries.

What a trip. The variety of once in a lifetime experiences is mind-blowingly. Manic Dehli, the Taj Mahal, mysterious and atmospheric Varanasi, the chill of Nepal and the views of the Himalayas. It will all live with me forever. Amazing trip!

Highlights of Northern India and Nepal

A fascinating visit to very different cultures and the mix, interaction between the different religions as well as peoples sense of dress and self made it a very interesting and safe place to be in. The subtle differences between India and Nepal were also very interesting
