Delhi

Strident, modern and multicolour city.

Old Delhi is where all shades of humanity could be seen and felt.

Mandawa

A town built in 18th. Century located in the Shekhawati region of Rajasthan. Expect an outdoor museum every step while experiencing the heritage walks around its Havelis (Traditional, exquisitely decorated mansions during Silk Route) . Enjoy and ease your spirit in our Mandawa Kothi property.

Jaipur

Capital of Rajasthan. Historical and royal Pink City where at the city’s heart, the Palace continues to house the former Royal Family. A flamboyant state where past and present merge in a unique way.

Agra

The place where the legacy of the Mughal empire has left a Wonder of the World born from a love story: The Taj Mahal.

Fascinating tombs and mausoleums, forts and bustling chowks (marketplaces), await you.

Varanasi

Holy River Ganges made of sacred waters where liberation of the soul is awaited. Mysticism is expressed in every cremation and puja ceremony. Hinduism Sanctuary where devotees await rebirth of their souls.

Lumbini

The birthplace of Siddhartha Gautama – better known as Lord Buddha – in the 7th century BC. During the years following the Buddha's lifetime, was a teeming monastic complex and a major place of pilgrimage, but the site was lost to history until the discovery in 1896 of an inscribed pillar left behind by the Buddhist emperor Ashoka, amidst a sea of monastery ruins.

A contemplative mood prevails in the city.

Chitwan National Park

A unique natural World Heritage Park in the Terai. The subtropical southern part of Nepal with total of 68 species of mammals, 544 species of birds, and 126 species of fishes. Reknown for its protection of One Horned Rhinoceros, Royal Bengal Tiger and Gharial Crocodile.

Pokhara

Spectacular scenery, adventure activities, accommodation and food choices galore. Known for being the gateway to the world-famous treks around Annapura and beyond.

Lakeside Pokhara is the perfect place to recharge your batteries.

Kathmandu

A city where all is experienced at once: riot of sights, sounds and smells, timeless cultural and artistic heritage that still reveals itself in hidden temples overflowing with marigolds, courtyards full of drying chilies and rice.

Endlessly fascinating, and sometimes infuriating, place.

Nagarkot

Well know for being top spot for enjoying Himalayan views from the comfort of your hotel balcony. Broadest incredible views of the Himalaya, with eight ranges visible: Annapurna, Manaslu, Ganesh Himal, Langtang, Jugal, Rolwaling, Everest and Numbur.
