From the breathtaking scenery of the mountain kingdom of Nepal to the Moghul splendors of northern India, this is an overland journey to stir the imagination. We visit the lakeside town of Pokhara for a taste of some of the world's most breathtaking scenery before descending the hills and crossing the border into India. We join Hindu pilgrims in Varanasi, experience village life in Orchha and visit the beautiful Taj Mahal before finishing in Delhi.
