Himalayan Swiss Holiday
Dalhousie-Dharamshala – the twin hillstation getaways in the Himalayas could give Switzerland a run for its money. Both these destinations compete for tourists, but hey, in this package we are not asking you to chose — we are taking you to both ’em. Magnificent weather and awe-inspiring landscapes of mountains, rivers and forests make for a peaceful calm refreshing and relaxing holiday in the hills. With stay arranged in the most beautiful of locales, this is a holiday you don’t want to miss.
On our way back, we pay our homage at the jewel of Punjab, the Golden Temple. Also, there we explore Amritsar’s history, culture, handicraft, lip-smacking punjabi cuisine and gregarious bhangra cultural dance at an evening at the fun-fair.

This by far is one of the most exciting and entertaining part of the tour.
Here you will be given a Special Welcome by a group of dhol players (Indian drummers) and dancers as per Punjabi Tradition. You will also witness a special show with renowned folk dances of India -the energetic Bhangra, the vibrant Giddha, and the powerful Gatka – Sikh Martial Art that will both amaze and charm you.
