Eleven days combining India's Golden Triangle with a Nepal arc through Kathmandu, Chitwan, and Pokhara. The India half runs through Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur at a pace that makes each city land properly rather than blur together. The Nepal half shifts register entirely: Kathmandu's sacred precincts and Newar craft quarters, a Chitwan wildlife day with canoe and jeep safari, and Pokhara's lake-and-mountain close. A Farbound tour director coordinates pacing, flights, guides, and on-ground flow across both countries, adjusting timing live. Built as a premium private circuit for first-time multi-country India and Nepal travellers. All domestic flights included.
