Overview

India is less a country than a continent folded into one border — twenty-two official languages, every great religion, and landscapes running from Himalayan ice to tropical backwater. It rewards travellers who choose a region and give it time, and that is exactly how we build journeys here.

From our side of the Himalaya, two Indias are natural companions to a Nepal journey: the golden triangle of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur — the Mughal and Rajput heartland — and the Himalayan east, where Darjeeling's tea gardens and toy train run beneath Kanchenjunga on the Sikkim border.

The Golden Triangle

Delhi, Agra and Jaipur: Mughal capitals, the Taj Mahal at sunrise, and the pink city of the Rajputs with Amber Fort above it. India's essential first journey — six days that hold five centuries.
