Eleven days combining India's Golden Triangle with a Nepal arc through Kathmandu, Chitwan, and Pokhara at the highest register. The India half stays at The Imperial in New Delhi, The Oberoi Amarvilas in Agra with Taj Mahal views, and Rambagh Palace in Jaipur. Nepal opens with Dwarika's Heritage Hotel in Kathmandu, moves to Meghauli Serai by Taj in Chitwan — a riverside tented safari camp directly on the park boundary — and closes at Pavilions Himalayas in Pokhara. A senior Farbound trip lead escorts the full circuit. Business class on all flights, most meals included, all tickets pre-arranged.
