Cox & Kings is the world's oldest travel company, with continuous operations on the Indian subcontinent since 1758. This legendary 22-day tour transports you back in time to ancient cities, cave temples and the palaces of the Maharajas. You will visit the mountain kingdom of Nepal, the deserted imperial city of Fatehpur Sikri, and the famed Taj Mahal, and ride elephant-back through Chitwan National Park in search of the one-horned rhino and the very rare Bengal tiger. Accommodations are in five-star palace hotels and jungle lodges in the national parks. Participation is limited to no more than 20 people per group.

Author lectures and a dinner at the exclusive Gymmkhana Club, formerly a private club for India Civil Service agents during the time of the Raj, are just a few of the special events offered only to Traveller's Bookstore customers.

This tour will be escorted by one principal Cox & Kings tour leader who oversees and coordinates all the details, and who has a minimum of fifteen years experience leading tours in India. There will also be experienced local guides at each stop who specialize in the culture, history and sights of each particular area. To ensure that your trip goes smoothly and you receive only the best care, Cox & Kings has a support staff of over 350 full-time people in India alone.
