The very mention of the word 'Himalayas',
inspires a sense of awe and respect towards the snow-capped
peaks of the greatest mountain range in the world. Himachal
Pradesh is a huge, predominantly mountainous state in north
India, bordered by Tibet to the east. It is full of hidden
secrets, meandering rivers and boasts outstanding natural
beauty. During the course of this exhilarating tour, whilst
journeying through high meadows and deep valleys, carpeted
with wild flowers, the full glory of the Himalayan foothills
of Himachal Pradesh will be revealed.
Travel on winding, mountain roads to favourite summer resorts
of the Raj and visit Maharajas' retreats, at a time when azaleas
and rhododendrons are in full bloom. Stay in small, privately-owned
residences, forts and palaces which give you a chance to experience
a way of life in the Himalayas, rarely encountered by others.
