Journey to Northern India

India exists at a remarkable crossroads of the modern world intersecting with life as it has been lived for millennia. It is a place like none other, and one that travelers never forget.

From the capital city of New Delhi to the breathtaking vistas of Rajasthan, take in this colorful and mind-boggling country. Admire the magnificent work of Mughal architecture at the Taj Mahal; take an elephant ride at Amber Fort; discover the opulent forts and palaces of Jaipur; and visit the "Blue City" of Jodhpur on the edge of the Thar Desert.

Discover a rural and remote part of India on our jeep excursion in Rohet. Experience Diwali, the Festival of Lights, and marvel at the romantic lake city of Udaipur.

Witness the Hindu rituals in Varanasi and take a sunrise boat ride on the Ganges.

Learn from local experts about modern India during guest lectures. Optional extension to the Pushkar Camel Fair is available.
