“The same routes by train and guesthouse”
Overnight trains, guesthouses and no private cars. Slower and a fraction of the price, and the trains are half the point.
Punjab done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Good value for what's included.
Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Worth every rupee.
Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Crew were professional without being stiff about it. No hesitation recommending them.
Glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you on another trip.
Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. No hesitation recommending them.
Punjab done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed. Recommended.
Cover your head, remove shoes and socks, wash your feet at the entrance, no alcohol or tobacco, no photography inside the sanctum. Head coverings are available free at the gate. Everyone is welcome regardless of faith.
