An extraordinary adventure with a unique blend of history, culture, wildlife and stunning mountain scenery
This epic journey takes us from the plains of India to the mountain kingdoms of Nepal and Bhutan, experiencing great contrasts along the way. In India we discover the sights of Delhi before exploring the bustling streets of Jaipur. Our next stop is the magnificent Taj Mahal before we continue on to Varanasi by overnight train. Here we take a boat ride on the Ganges River and see Hindu pilgrims praying and performing their ablutions. We then drive to Nepal, where we visit the birthplace of Lord Buddha, before heading into the wildlife haven of Royal Chitwan National Park. Next stop is the former hippy paradise and Nepalese capital, Kathmandu. A breathtaking flight brings us to the Dragon Kingdom Bhutan. Here we explore the delightful capital of Thimphu, visit the famous Tiger's Nest Monastery and take in the splendour of the alpine countryside.
