Now's the time to explore India and Nepal on your terms with this tour that's affordable for young travellers. Make the most of every moment on this fast-paced 15-day adventure. With other young, like-minded travellers, you'll sail the Ganges, have the chance to take a jeep safari in Chitwan National Park, and breathe it all in among the Himalayas of Nepal. Think of this trip like a playlist of backpacker classics like the Taj Majal and Pushkar that you'll want to leave on repeat. We do the planning but leave lots of free time to dance to the beat of your own South Asian drum.


Day 1: Delhi

Enjoy an orientation walk through the market stalls.

Day 4: Jaipur
Embark on a guided tour of Amber Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site to check off your bucket list.

Afterward, head back to Jaipur and spend the free afternoon exploring the city with your fellow travellers and see where the night takes you.
