Delhi • Shimla • Manali • Palampur • Dharamsala (Mcleod Ganj) • Amritsar Explore India's mountainous areas in our 12-day "Spirit of the Himalayas" journey. From Delhi and its spectacular sites we head to the cooler climes of the mountains and Shimla, enjoying a heritage walk. Experience the World Heritage listed "toy train", the Tibetan centre of Dharamsala, and the exquisite Golden Temple, a spiritual centre for devout Sikhs. |
Days 1 - 2 Delhi Explore Old Delhi on an exciting rickshaw ride, and visit sites including the Moghul classics of the Jama Masjid and Humayan’s Tomb, Tibet House and the impressive new Akshardam Temple. Days 3 - 4 Shimla Travel by rail and road to Shimla, the former summer capital of the British Raj. We ride the famous ‘toy train’ to Khanda Ghat, where we enjoy lunch in the Himalayan meadows, explore the colonial buildings and mingle with the locals on The Mall. Hotel: Oberoi Clarks Days 5 - 6 Manali We head deeper into the Himalayas, passing glacier-fed streams and tiny mountain settlements of the picturesque Kullu Valley. We explore the temples and wooden houses of Manali on foot, stop by Naggar Castle and learn more about some of the traditional local trades with a visit to an apple orchard. Days 7 - 9 Palampur & Dharamsala Visit the ancient Hindu temple complex at Baijnath and the Norbulingka Institute with its Tibetan crafts before continuing on to Dharamsala, centre of Tibetan culture and spirituality in India. Explore its monasteries and bustling market streets. Days 10 - 12 Amritsar & Delhi Descend to the fertile plains of Punjab and holy Amritsar. At the nearby Pakistani border, we witness a pompous display of patriotic rivalry as guards on both sides lower their flags and close their border posts. The next day, rise before dawn to witness the glorious Golden Temple at sunrise. Explore Amritsar further before boarding your comfortable express train to Delhi. Your journey ends with an airport transfer on day 12.
