Welcome to Nepal. Swap hellos with the crew, settle in, and let the journey ease into motion.

Today, we’ll hit the streets, diving into Kathmandu Durbar Square that tells the story of the city’s past. Check out landmarks like Hanuman Dhoka and the Kumari Ghar before heading up to Swayambhunath (a 2,000 year-old Buddhist Stupa) for an epic view of the city. The afternoon’s yours to wander, reset, or chase whatever Kathmandu’s throwing your way.

Day Highlight

INCLUDED EXPERIENCES

Kathmandu City Tour
Hit the streets with a local guide and dive straight into Kathmandu’s past at Durbar Square — a maze of temples, royal palaces, and courtyards where Nepal’s kings once ruled. You’ll spot the Kumari Ghar, home of the Living Goddess, and hear how a single wooden pagoda gave the city its name. Then it’s up to hilltop Swayambhunath, one of the valley’s oldest stupas, with spinning prayer wheels, resident monkeys, and big views over Kathmandu.

Rise and shine! Time to roll out of the capital as the city slowly wakes up.

Chitwan National Park
By the evening, jungle takes the lead. We’ll arrive in Chitwan National Park - Nepal’s wild side. This is rhino country, elephant territory, and one of the few places where Bengal tigers still roar.

We’ll ease into the day with an included morning safari, catching the park as it comes alive. Eyes up for wild wonders. Still not satisfied? An optional evening safari is up for grabs — wider trails, changing vegetation, and quiet stops by lakes and lookout towers as wildlife moves on its own terms.

Day Highlight

INCLUDED EXPERIENCES

Go on Safari: Chitwan National Park
Climb into your Jeep and buckle up for an action-packed day. Look out for one-horned rhinos, Bengal tigers, leopards, elephants and peacocks.

Catch an Evening Safari
As the light fades, jump into a shared jeep and head back into Chitwan National Park as wildlife becomes more active. Keep your eyes peeled for one-horned rhinos, deer, elephants, crocodiles, and an impressive spread of birdlife as you cruise wider trails and pause at lakes and lookout points. Different light, different energy — and the chance to spot animals on the move.

Chitwan National Park to Kathmandu
We’ll be up early and back on the road, saying goodbye to the jungle as we begin the long but scenic drive to Kathmandu.

Kathmandu
By the afternoon, we’ll roll back into the capital and check in at the hotel. The rest of the day’s yours — unwind, wander, or soak up a final dose of Kathmandu energy.

Time for those final hugs, final photos, and a final look at those legendary Himalayan horizons transfer to teh Airport for you Flight and next adventure in Delhi.
Welcome to Delhi - the buzzing city where centuries-old forts meet full-throttle city life. Meet your crew and Trip Manager tonight, before we head out for dinner at a local restaurant to kick things off properly.

Delhi to Overnight Train to Bikaner
Morning, travellers. We’ll kick off in Old Delhi with a photo stop at the Red Fort, then hop on rickshaws through the buzzing lanes to Jama Masjid. Next up, we’ll swing by India Gate, cruise past the President’s House and government buildings, then stop at Gandhi’s House to round things off. Hungry? You can opt in to an Old Delhi food tour this evening and taste your way through the chaos.

Overnight train to Bikaner
Tonight we’ll board a basic overnight train to Bikaner and travel proper local-style. You’ll be in 6-berth sleeper compartments with bedding included. Your bags kept in-cabin (space is tight, so an overnight bag will be your best mate). Settle in, get some rest, and let the rhythm of the rails do the work while we roll towards Rajasthan.

Overnight Train

Hello Rajasthan! We'll jump off our overnight train and have brekkie at our homestay.

Bikaner
We're now fueled and ready to head out and explore Junagarh Fort (one of the region’s most impressive strongholds and seriously stunning inside). The afternoon is yours to roam. Opt in for a heritage bike ride past ornate havelis, and dive into the local street food scene.

Breakfast included

Bye bye, Bikaner. You’ll have the morning for a breakfast run, then we’ll hit the road towards Jaisalmer with desert scenes incoming.

Jaisalmer
Welcome to the Golden City, where the legendary Jaisalmer Fort glows in sandstone. It’s one of the world’s rare living forts, and you’ll feel that energy as you admire from the outside. Tonight we’ll grab a rooftop spot and watch the sunset turn the whole city even more golden.

Kick things off this morning with a guided walk through this real-life sandcastle. Then you’ll have time to roam the fort’s winding lanes with the crew before we switch gears and head straight into the Thar Desert. Time to check into our tents near the dunes of Khuri. Come sunset, it’s camel ride o’clock (!) followed by a bonfire night of Rajasthani folk music, dance and a family-style dinner under the stars. Wow.

Dinner included

Jaisalmer, you were unreal. We’ll grab one last camp breakfast by the dunes, then hit the road towards our next Rajasthani gem. Blue City, we’re coming for ya'

Jodhpur
Dive straight into Jodhpur with an orientation through its old city lanes and buzzing markets, plus a photo stop in front of the mighty Mehrangarh Fort (camera rolls will be filling fast). After some free time to explore your way, we’ll check into the hotel and take the evening to wander and grab dinner with the crew.

Breakfast included

A free day in Jodhpur? Yes please. Maybe hop in a tuk-tuk for photo ops through those iconic blue lanes, chase down a fort viewpoint, or café-hop between market finds. From skyline views to street eats, the options are endless in this city.

After two nights in Jodhpur, we’ll hit the road for Pushkar, a city that plays by its own rules and proudly so.

Pushkar
No meat. No alcohol. Just colourful markets, cool cafés and a whole lot of spirituality. We'll get to know one of India's oldest towns with an orientation around the holy lake and ghats (and even visit the iconic Brahma Temple and an evening Aarti as chants drift across the water). Wanna grab the crew and head to a cute rooftop cafe overlooking the lake?

Wakey wakey. We’ll rise before the sun and take on the 970 steps up to Savitri Temple, climbing 750 feet for panoramic views over Pushkar as the city wakes below. (That early alarm will be worth it, promise!).

Jaipur
Next up: the oh-so-pretty, Pink City. We’ll get straight into it with a hands-on block printing session at the Anoothi Project, supporting a powerful local initiative. Later (once the new crew has joined) we’ll head out on an evening orientation walk through Jaipur’s buzzing bazaars and sandstone streets. With 3 nights here, there’ll be time to slow the pace, dive deeper, and make the most of a city packed with colour, culture, and plenty to do.
