INDIA - From Rajasthan to the Himalayas

Per person:
Accommodations: €230 to €395 (double or single room)

The accommodations, transfers, and program activities listed are recommendations. You will pay the respective costs yourself directly on site.

The organizational fee of €590 is due no later than October 15, 2026.

Thanks to my long-standing contacts in India, I can recommend many services at favorable rates. I am personally familiar with most of the accommodations, or they have been recommended to me by friends and long-standing local contacts.

Based on experience, the listed prices are generally reliable. Since services are booked and paid for directly on site, prices are subject to change—over which I have no control.

You decide for yourself which of the suggested activities you’d like to participate in, or whether you’d prefer to explore on your own in between. The only times we’ll travel together as a group are during the shared trips from one location to the next—Pushkar, Jaipur, and Rishikesh.

At each location, there are two opportunities a day to eat vegetarian meals. Some of the meals are prepared specifically for our group according to Ayurvedic principles.
India offers a wide selection of delicious vegetarian dishes. Sometimes meals are prepared especially for us. The food is “sattvic,” meaning it is very easy to digest, not spicy, and particularly well-suited for meditation. Even people with sensitive stomachs generally tolerate this food very well. There is also often the option of choosing European dishes.

We will primarily eat at our accommodations or at recommended restaurants to avoid unpleasant surprises.
On excursions, we’ll bring a packed lunch with us.

Since this is a consciousness-expanding journey, we will abstain from all mind-altering substances such as alcohol, drugs, etc.
