Itinerary

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. This trip is a perfect balance for those who appreciate immersive sightseeing but prefer a pace that allows for both adventure and relaxation.

day 1Adventure starts in Delhi

Begin your adventure in pulsating Delhi. It’s a city split in two, with historic Old Delhi in the north and the nation’s capital, New Delhi, in the south.
Around 6pm, we gather as a group to get to know each other and learn more about the adventures ahead. Your tour leader then ensures a big welcome by arranging a group dinner at a nearby restaurant.
