Details
Explore India's vibrant contrasts on this 16-day tour! Discover the Golden Triangle (Delhi, Agra, Jaipur), stay in a rural village, then head south to explore Kochi, hilltop Munnar, Thekkady's wildlife, and Kumarakom's tranquil backwaters.
Begin your journey in Delhi, where history and modernity intertwine. Experience the vibrant energy of Old Delhi – its Mughal-era marvels, bustling streets, and irresistible street food. Ride a rickshaw for a classic Delhi experience!
Next, discover Agra, home of the Taj Mahal. Support the Sheroes Cafe, a heartwarming initiative aiding acid attack survivors, then join the Mughal Heritage Walk with a local villager. See rural life unfold around you and enjoy unique views of the Taj Mahal. Witness its iconic beauty at sunrise before a night at a stunningly converted palace, immersing you in the rhythms of rural India.
Jaipur, the "Pink City," awaits! Explore the majestic Amber Fort, City Palace, and Jantar Mantar Observatory. Delve into Jaipur's craft markets and try your hand at block printing.
Now, fly to Kochi, the gateway to Kerala! Explore this vibrant city's rich history and culture, perhaps even witnessing a mesmerizing Kathakali dance performance. Ascend to the scenic hill station of Munnar, surrounded by lush landscapes of tea plantations, waterfalls, and fragrant spice markets. Learn the art of tea-making, from plucking to tasting!
In Thekkady, embark on a Periyar National Park boat ride teeming with wildlife. Spot elephants, vibrant birds, and with luck, even an elusive tiger!
Finally, unwind in Kumarakom's tranquil backwaters. Glide along on a traditional Shikara boat, witness local crafts like coir making, and spend a luxurious night on a houseboat. Savour local flavors, stunning sunsets, and the gentle pace of life on the water. This unforgettable Indian adventure concludes in Kochi, from where you can depart to your next destination.
The accommodations used on this tour have been carefully selected and include a home-stay style hotel whilst in Delhi, a mix of 3 to 5-star hotels (including some heritage hotels) and a luxurious houseboat on the Keralan backwaters.
