About the trip

This 15-night escorted tour with Riviera Travel travels through India and Nepal, offering a contrast between intense city energy and calm natural scenery. It starts with tours in Delhi, visiting the Qutub Minar and old markets via rickshaw, then moves to Agra to catch the sunrise over the Taj Mahal and explore the Agra Fort. After a train journey to Orchha and Khajuraho, the tour continues to Varanasi where a boat ride on the Ganges presents the Ganga Aarti ceremony.

The journey then shifts to Nepal, where Kathmandu’s Boudhanath Stupa offers a quieter spiritual atmosphere. The tour includes a guided walk in Chitwan National Park, home to rhinos and a crocodile conservation centre, and a boat ride across Lake Phewa in Pokhara for reflections of the Annapurna mountains. A talk from a Sherpa adds insight into Himalayan climbing culture, while the drive back to Kathmandu winds through changing landscapes, daily village life, and rice terraces. The tour finishes with a celebratory meal in Kathmandu.

With a blend of city exploration, historic monuments, and nature, this holiday maintains a steady pace with early starts balanced by free time and moments to observe local rhythms and details, such as the quiet enforced by Nepal’s horn regulations.
