Northern Jewels of India 14 days [ Click here to view trip itinerary] India
This great country spreads from the Himalayas in the north (the highest mountain range in the world), and slopes southward into a large fertile plain that covers much of India. Three mountain ranges extend from the Indus River in the northwest, to the Brahmaputra River in the east, including the Himadri, Himachal and Shivaliks - all with deep canyons gorged by the fast-flowing water. The land rises slightly into two plateaus, bordered in the central and south by lower mountains (Ghats) that gently slope into narrow coastal plains. The Ganges is one of the most significant rivers on the planet stretching from high in the mountains to the Bay of Bengal. No matter where you go and what you see, India will jostle your entire being and a place you will want to return to time and time again to try and capture all it has to offer.
