For something a little more off the beaten path, take the train right to the heart of India’s colourful culture for a different look at this dynamic country’s northern region.

Experiences like the India-Pakistan Wagah border ceremony and Dalai Lama sights in Dharamsala get you in touch with the spiritual side of India, while the toy trains in Shimla are always a delight.

Riding the rails back to Delhi gives you the chance to see many of India’s well-known highlights, and we even include a G Adventures-sponsored walking tour led by former Delhi street kids. You’ve never experienced India quite like this.
