Ladakh & Rajasthan... A Perfect Summer in North India

15 days from £9,240 for 2025 per person

This itinerary is one of Ampersand's Top 10 Cultural Holidays.

This tour combines two completely different regions of India; Ladakh in the Himalayas, and Rajasthan Indias driest state, each region completely stunning in its own way.

Ladakh is both physically and culturally spectacular. Often called Little Tibet due to the great similarities in its people, plateau landscape surrounded by the soaring Himalayas, and its culture and religion, Ladakh is a raw and awe-inspiring ancient land and is home to one of the best-preserved Tantric Buddhist societies in existence. Using Thiksey as a base and staying at the fabulous Chamba Camp, explore the surrounding region with its impressive and ancient monasteries, many populated by communities of Buddhist monks. Spend a day visiting Alchi to see the 900-year-old temples with their beautiful wall paintings and wood sculptures which fortunately survived the Mughal invasion of India

Next, return to Delhi and spend a day discovering the citys many layers of history and architecture. Continue to Agra, home to the impenetrable Agra Fort and the majestic Taj Mahal, the jewel in the Mughal crown. Continue your journey onto the regal Rajput cities of Jaipur, also known as the Pink City, and the beautiful and tranquil lake city of Udaipur. The contrast between the simplicity and vast landscapes of Ladakh and the colourful opulence of Delhi and Rajasthan will blow you away, and it is what makes this tour so fascinating.

Client Testimonials

We really enjoyed the trip and were happy that we squeezed so much into a few short days. The Burmese people were lovely and the sites were fantastic. We really enjoyed the balloon ride and would highly suggest it to others in the future. The trip went super smoothly and a good time plus learning happened for all. Yangon was nice as the Strand was quite amazing and we of course loved the giant gold temple. Many thanks for all of your help and look forward to future travel with you.
