About the trip
This eight-night escorted tour with G Adventures threads through key cultural and natural landmarks from India to Nepal. In Varanasi, there’s time to walk the narrow alleys of old Benaras and take morning and evening boat rides on the Ganges, watching local life unfold by the riverside. Later, a night at a home-stay in Barauli offers a slower pace, with plenty of chances to meet locals outside the usual tourist frame.
