SIGNATURE TOUR TF-8
Duration: 11 D / 10 N
Destinations: Delhi - Ananda in the Himalayas - Jim Corbett National Park - Binsar - Delhi
Journey Overview:
Though the Indian Himalayas stretch from China to Kashmir, the Uttarakhand (formerly Uttaranchal) region is widely considered to offer the most spectacular scenery. The Himalayas, literally translated as the ‘land of the snow’, are the youngest and tallest mountains on earth, stretching from Arunachal Pradesh on the Burmese border in the east to the icy Karakoram and Hindu Kush ranges that meet along with India, Pakistan and Afghanistan in the north-west. The village walks concept is ideal for this unspoilt and off the beaten track region of India; bringing benefits to local people and to the guests who visit and learn about the culture and environment. Begin with the beautiful tranquility of “ANANDA in the Himalayas” – also an exclusive spa resort, before viewing the rich wildlife in the jungles of the Jim Corbett National Park. Finish off in Delhi, the bustling capital of India. During private touring, experience highlights such as the UNESCO-listed Humayun’s Tomb and Qutb Minar, the Lodi Gardens, and a rickshaw ride through the colorful bazaars of Old Delhi, as well as upscale shopping districts.
