Every journey we build is assembled from these. Pick what you want to spend your days doing and we will shape the route around it.
We have run these trips for close to thirty years — first as The Pearls of India, now as GoIndiaNepal. Nothing below is a packaged excursion sold on the day. Each one is built into your itinerary in advance, matched to your fitness, your pace and how much of the day you want to be moving.
Guided days through Delhi's Mughal monuments, Jaipur's pink palaces, the medieval squares of Kathmandu and Bhaktapur, and the ghats of Varanasi.
