The Indian Himalayas run through five major states, covering the whole north of India. The most popular regions to visit are Jammu, Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Uttaranchal and Sikkim, although the entire region shares the breath-taking landscapes, outstanding trekking, hospitable locals and jovial cultures that make an Indian Himalayas holiday truly special.

The most memorable parts were the ride on an elephant and seeing the Himalayas for the first time. Not to mention over three hundred bird species that we saw and the fabulous Taj mahal.

The most memorable part of the trip - it's a cliché but, all the pictures in the world do not prepare you for actually being at the Taj Mahal. Most exciting part - rickshaw ride through Jaipur! and white water rafting on the Ganges.

Each monastery had distinct and different features and each day held distinct and different personal experiences.

I enjoyed best the wonderful scenery, the nomadic lifestyle while on trek and the wonderful food being provided by Wallu, the Nepali cook. Thanks a lot.

The highlight was staying with a family. Pack light as you do have to carry your bags around and you WILL shop!!
