Leh and the Golden Triangle
12 days from £2585 per person

Leh | Delhi | Agra | Jaipur | Udaipur

This tour combines two completely different regions of India; Ladakh and Rajasthan, each stunning in its own way. Ladakh is often called Little Tibet due to the great similarities in its people, plateau landscape surrounded by the Himalayas, culture and religion. Using Leh as a base, explore the surrounding region with its impressive and ancient monasteries, many populated by communities of Buddhist monks. Spend a day visiting Alchi to see the 900 year old temples with their beautiful wall paintings and wood sculptures which fortunately survived the Mughal invasion of India. Return to Delhi and spend a day discovering the city's many layers of history and architecture. Continue to Agra, one of the jewels in the Mughal crown before visiting the regal Rajput cities of Jaipur and Udaipur. The contrast between the simplicity of Ladakh and the colourful opulence of Delhi and Rajasthan is striking and makes this tour most interesting. This tour is purely a suggested itinerary. It can be booked as is or alternatively used as a starting point for creating your own perfect tailor made holiday to Ladakh and Rajastan.
