| Delhi and overland to the Great Cattle and Elephant fair at Sonepur | 9th-24th Nov 2010 | |
| Tutor: Rob Fairley | From: £1595.00 | |
| Location: India | ||
| A unique expedition which offers an epic Indian adventure.
Setting off from Delhi after taking in the wonders of Lutyens' New Delhi and the Mughal architecture of Old Dehli, we journey via Varanasi, described by Mark Twain as "older than history, older than tradition, older than legend and looks twice as old as all of them put together" to the extraordinary elephant sale at Sonepur, possibly the largest animal fair in Asia. A riot of colour, culture and excitement – this is a once in a life-time experience which ensures total immersion in the Indian way of life. | ||
