7-Day India and Nepal Tour Packages
Our week-long Buddhist pilgrimages connect the essential sites across India and Nepal. Starting at Varanasi's Sarnath, where Buddha first shared his teachings, you'll travel to Bodhgaya - the place of his enlightenment. The route takes in Rajgir, where Buddha spent 12 years teaching, and includes the fascinating ruins of Nalanda's ancient university. Our TourRadar customers often mention how much they appreciate traveling in smaller vehicles instead of big buses, as it gives them more time to experience places like Kushinagar, where Buddha reached Mahaparinirvana. The journey comes full circle at his birthplace in Lumbini, covering all the most meaningful Buddhist sites along the way.
