What Makes 16 Days in India Special?
16 days gives you the perfect balance of exploration and rest. You're not racing through places, you're savoring them. You’ll have time to explore historic cities, enjoy free afternoons for shopping or cafes, experience a cooking class, or just soak in the atmosphere from a heritage haveli or riverfront hotel.
You'll get to combine at least two distinct regions—say, the Mughal marvels of the north and the coconut coastlines of the south. Add a dash of wildlife, a sprinkle of spirituality, and a lot of local flavor—and you’ve got the perfect Indian journey.
This Itinerary is Perfect For:
- First-time travelers wanting a rich, well-rounded introduction to India
