About This Tour

A 23-day journey across India's ancient heritage — the Taj Mahal in Agra, sacred Varanasi and Bodh Gaya, Kolkata, and the temples, tribal villages, and coastline of Odisha. This is our longest India itinerary, and the only one to reach Odisha — its temples, tribal communities, and coastline are rarely covered on standard India routes.
