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.
