Tour · 14 nights · with G Adventures
A small-group G Adventures tour of northern India and Kashmir, combining the Taj Mahal and Jaipur’s palaces with a houseboat on Dal Lake and starry nights in Ladakh’s high mountains.

Sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal
Houseboat stay and shikara ride on Dal Lake
Guided Lidder Valley trek in Pahalgam
Jeep ride to Zero Point near Sonmarg
Overnight at Lamayuru Monastery in Ladakh
This 14-night G Adventures small-group tour begins amid Delhi’s historic sites, from the Red Fort to the Jama Masjid, before heading to Agra for an early morning at the Taj Mahal and visits to Agra Fort and the Baby Taj. Jaipur follows, with its Hawa Mahal, City Palace, and a block printing workshop offering a tactile glimpse of local craft.
Journeys
First time
The journey shifts north to Kashmir, where a houseboat on Dal Lake and a walk up Shankaracharya Hill temper the earlier bustle. There’s a guided trek in the Lidder Valley and a jeep ride to the snowfields of Zero Point near Sonmarg. Then come sweeping drives over mountain passes into Ladakh, with visits to war memorials, monasteries perched on moonscapes, and an overnight at the Lamayuru Monastery.
Travelling by a mix of private vehicle, plane, boat and jeep, the route is a steady unfolding of contrasts — from grand Mughal architecture to Himalayan valleys. Expect local meals shared with the group and some camping under the stars, plus the occasional power cut and unpredictable schedule that come with travelling beyond well-trodden paths.
