India
India is a big subject. The diversity of culture, virtually unfathomable depth of culture, and long continuum of history, offer endless opportunities to accumulate experiences and memories for a life time. The Indian Himalayas are known as Dev –Bhumi, the ‘abode of the Gods’. Here is the source of India’s Holy River Ganges. The Ganges, starting as a small glacial stream in Gangotri, eventually travels the length and breadth of India, nourishing her people and sustaining a continuum of the world’s most ancient Hindu culture. In the Indian Garhwal Himalayas we visit the Char-Dham, 4 of Hinduisms most Holy places of Pilgrimage nestled in the high valleys of the mountains. Also in the Indian Himalayas we find majestic Sikkim. Darjeeling is famous for her tea gardens, and in Ladakh, even today the traditional culture of Tibet thrives as it did during the medieval period. Wearing the Himalayas like a crown, India is a land of amazing diversity. Home to more than a billion people, you find in India an endless storehouse of culture, tradition amidst the development of the 21st century! A land of legend, from the Palaces and forts of Rajasthan , the beaches of Goa, mountains and jungles and teeming cities, no visit to India is complete without a visit to the Taj Mahal, The Taj Mahal is an Emperor’ monument in marble to the eternal quality of love. Although Karnali Excursions specializes in the Himalayan Region, we also conduct a wide variety of tours in India. India abounding as she does in places of interest and unique diversity always invites the curious and travel enthusiast.

It is our pleasure to develop customized excursions to fit your exact interests.
