This is what the journey looks like
Set out on an unforgettable journey through the two most breathtaking faces of northern India. Kashmir welcomes you with emerald lakes, Mughal gardens and the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas, while Ladakh reveals the stark high-altitude landscapes and Buddhist monasteries of “Little Tibet”. Along the way: a shikara cruise on Dal Lake, a night aboard a houseboat, and drives along some of the highest roads on earth. This is an expedition for travellers who value authentic experiences, small, intimate groups and sightseeing at an unhurried pace.
