Road Rating – Quest
This is a short trip with comfortable accommodation and no sharing, we have included one train trip so you can get a taste of local transport but apart from that all transport is by road in airconditioned vehicles. Please remember in India there is a highly recommended dress code for women so as not to cause offense culturally – arms and legs should be covered by either a full-length dress or pants with knee length kaftan or shirt. Men are strongly advised to wear trousers. Delhi can be hot at certain times of the year so be sure to bring light clothes. Public toilets you may encounter may also be of the eastern squat variety.
A note about fitness
To get the most enjoyment out of this trip at minimum you should be able to walk up to 2.5km during scheduled sightseeing, be confident walking over uneven surfaces and be able to carry your own luggage to the hotel, as well as on and off the train.
In addition, you should be in good health, with no major chronic conditions requiring frequent medical attention. For more information please see our booking conditions.
Single supplement
Traveling by yourself? No problem, we love single travelers and don’t believe in penalising them by charging half the trip price again for our single supplement. With us you are only paying the actual cost to have a room all to yourself. If you’re up for making a new friend, you can elect to share with another single traveler of the same sex and only pay the twin-share price. The choice is yours!
Itinerary disclaimer
This itinerary is correct at the time of upload to our website and we have composed it in good faith. From time to time we may elect to make changes before departure, if we are making a big change we will of course notify you, however if it is a small change this will be reflected in the final trip notes. So, make sure you download these prior to departure. Small changes prior to departure are usually made with the groups best interests in mind and come about due to liaising with our best resources – our past travelers and of course our trip leaders! The ability to change and evolve depending on what our travelers enjoy is what makes us such a great trip operator.
While we strive to operate our trips exactly to the letter of the itinerary, sometimes we may need to make changes on the ground while the group is on the road. This is all part of the adventure of traveling and we would ask that you come on your trip with an open mind and a good sense of humour because as much as we want it to, everything doesn’t always go to plan. In fact, these impromptu situations often make the best stories that you can have a laugh with your friends about later.
