Itinerary

Explore the best of India and Nepal on "Journeys: Explore India & Nepal," a 17-day city sightseeing trip that starts in New Delhi and concludes in Kathmandu. Wander through the famed Golden Triangle—Delhi, Agra, Jaipur—before ascending into the Himalayas for a taste of Buddhist culture and breathtaking mountain scenery.

Marvel at the Taj Mahal, navigate the bazaars of Jaipur, and discover Nepal’s carved palaces and monasteries. Unique experiences like a Nepalese dumpling cooking class and a wildlife adventure in Chitwan National Park add depth and authenticity to your journey.

The USP here is the seamless combination of iconic landmarks and immersive local activities, offering a rich and varied exploration of two extraordinary countries.

The trip gave me an exceptional window into India and Nepal, and gave a good balance of cultural and nature-oriented experiences.

Our trip to India and Nepal was breathtaking, and the way National Geographic and G Adventures handled the trip made it easy for us to visit a number of areas we may not have otherwise tried to visit. I also was fascinated by the various organizations that G Adventures was supporting through its Planeterra Foundation, and was glad to be able to visit this area of the world in a responsible fashion.

We would recommend everyone experience Nepal. It was a star on our travel list. The problem with India is the pollution, although we enjoyed our trip and don not regret going for the experience. We appreciate India's desire to clean up the streets, but sweeping the trash in a pile in the street and not picking up the piles does not help keep the street clean.

I had an interesting trip to Northern India and Nepal. Thanks to the two fantastic CEOs, I learned a lot about the history, culture, people, food and religions of both of these areas. The highlights of the trip were visiting the Taj Mahal (the last of the 7 Wonders of the World to check off my list!) and the Everest flight.
