Overview
Book online and enjoy exclusive savings on G Adventures 15 Day Northern India: Riverside Safaris, Ancient Fortresses & The Taj Mahal. Explore, hike, and cycle through India on this 15-day odyssey where every moment will feel like a dance between tradition and enchantment.

Next, Agra and Pushkar await, with their bold forts and ancient temples spinning tales that echo through the ages. Ranthambore National Park invites you to discover animals roaming freely,...read more peacocks putting on dazzling dance moves and maybe even a tiger or two. Pack your sense of wonder and let India unfold in all its glory.
Itinerary
You will be met at the airport by your included arrival transfer through the G Adventures-supported Women With Wheels project. After a welcome meeting with your CEO and group, go on an orientation walk and then head to a local restaurant for a welcome dinner. Stay: Maidens Hotel (D)
Join your CEO on a walking tour of some of the oldest parts of Delhi, through ancient ruins and diverse religious sites. In the afternoon, discover Old Delhi and its narrow bylanes of Kinnari bazaar and the old havelis of Chandni Chowk. Wander through bazaars, spice markets and even ride a rickshaw to dive straight into daily life in India's biggest city. Stay: Maidens Hotel (B)
After riding the train to Agra, visit both sites with your CEO and local guide. In the evening, drive to Dholpur and check into your OMG Stay- a tranquil set of stone cottages that feels a million miles away from the busy atmosphere of Delhi. Stay: Narsingh Bagh (B/L/D)
After spending the morning on the river, the afternoon is dedicated to exploring the land. Get out on a bicycle to discover the lush jungle surrounding Narsingh Bagh, and join your guide in looking for a number of bird species local to the area. Stay: Narsingh Bagh (B/L/D)
Your Indian safari adventure continues as you leave Dholpur and drive to Ranthambore National Park. Spend the afternoon on safari before a delicious dinner at the lodge. Stay: The Tigress (B/L/D)
After an early morning safari, you'll drive to one of the most colorful cities in India, Jaipur. Known for its colored gems and pink buildings, take it all in on a walking tour of the city. Stay: Shahpura House (B/D)
Spend the morning exploring at Hawa Mahal and the Amber Fort. After lunch, take a special tour of Jantar Mantar, one of the most important astronomical observatories of the pre-modern world. Stay: Shahpura House (B)
Your OMG Day starts in the holy town of Pushkar with a visit the famed Brahma Temple to meet a local pandit to understand and partake in ancient rituals. Then the choice is yours: choose to take an hour long yoga class followed by a wellness and spirituality discussion, or drive to the base of Savitri Temple hill for a hike up the 900 steps for a birds-eye view of Pushkar. Stay: Camp Landsend (B/L/D)
After a leisurely start to the morning, hop into jeeps to visit the small villages and hamlets outside Chandelao Garh, culminating in a visit to Pipar village to learn more about the 100 year old crafting techniques. An overnight in this unique heritage property awaits. Stay: Hotel Chandelao Garh (B/L/D)
After a morning of discovery at the extraordinary Mehrangarh Fortress and the Blue City of Jodhpur, visit the Sunder Rang Cooperative and discover how this small social enterprise is helping more than 30 women and their families to provide meaningful support for their community. From textiles to handmade crafts, each unique item showcases the talent and creativity of the women who have made them. Stay: Hotel Chandelao Garh (B/D)
Together the group drives to Ranakpur to visit the famous Ranakpur Jain Temples before reaching Udaipur. After an orientation walk of the old city, enjoy a group dinner at a lakeside restaurant. Stretch your legs on walk along the lake or take a tuk tuk back to your hotel for the night. Stay: Chunda Haveli (B/D)
This afternoon is at leisure to explore as you please. Grab a tea at a cafe or do some exploring on foot with your camera. In the evening, climb aboard for a sunset boat ride to explore Lake Pichola. Stay: Chunda Haveli (B)
After a relaxing morning with some leisure time in Udaipur, your flight takes you to the busiest city in all of India, Mumbai. Take a driving tour of the city after your arrival before reaching the hotel. Stay: Trident Nariman Point (B)
Visit the Gateway of India before you board your private boat to Elephanta Caves. Travel for an hour to reach the UNESCO World Heritage site. Spend a half-day visiting these rock-cut stone temples that date back to the 5th century. The afternoon is at your leisure to relax, eat, shop, or all three!
