This tour is a twin bonanza - traveling through two countries which have shared the cradle of civilization for ages - commencing at Delhi, there is nothing like changing the mood to a city of palaces and forts - Jaipur and then to the "Marble" marvel of Taj. Once through with the Golden Triangle, an interesting mixture of wildlife and spiritualism begins - Varanasi and Lumbini - allows you for your self-realization. The mood changes into adventurous one at Chitwan, the picturesque home of the wildlife and Sal forests. The bonanza reaches the fag end at Pokhara rich in natural beauty to napping it up at the glorious Kathmandu. |
