Trip Desciption
Delhi – Agra – Abhaneri – Jaipur – Karauli – Orcha – Khajuraho – Varanasi – Delhi.
This tour is more than an adventure trip – it is a discovery. We venture into the labyrinth of the Indian kaleidoscope of colors, customs, and traditions. We visit villages, interact with locals, and take part in their daily lives. This tour also includes the most important highlights and sightseeing. Our tour offers us a deep insight into the multilingual and multicultural spectrum of India, where all the world’s major religions have coexisted for centuries. A country where legends such as Gautama Buddha were born, who spread Buddhism around the world, and Mahatma Gandhi, who became known worldwide with his non-violent movement. The list of philosophers and saints who have shaped India is endless. India has been an attractive destination for many explorers for centuries – and we too discover the many facets of this country, which couldn’t be more different. We mingle with the middle class, who often speak English, and with the poor, who can barely write their names in their language. We experience the upper-class, Indians who buy expensive internationally branded products, and see how India is growing as an economic global power. This country is a boiling pot – something is always happening – be it religious rituals, festivals, or spiritual discourses. At the end of this journey, we will discover that there is an “India within India”.
