Experience
Shared by the TravellerNorth India With Kathmandu Himalaya Adventure tour of
mine to India has been a very balanced tour. Adventuring Rajasthan and
Kathmandu, is an experience of a lifetime as I got the opportunity to mount
on Elephants and daunted to climb the un-disputable mountains of the
Himalayas. I remember my guides constantly staying by my side when I was
rafting on the rivers of the Himalayas. So, my sincere thanks go to my
agents. Actually, being in Kathmandu was a sigh of relief as this place is
less populated and nestles on the serenity of the Himalayas. It was like a
heaven. However, I also was deeply moved on my visit to Varanasi as I felt
that the river Ganga really cleansed my soul when I took a dip in this holy
river.
