What to expect from your experience

This is an Indian experience; we are going off the beaten tourist trail and stay far away from the “Lonely Planet”-places. We want to take you on the same adventure and to experience the same warmth and character we enjoyed when we first explored this area. We will use Indian companies; eat Indian food the Indian style, drink Indian booze and travel the Indian way. We believe in the local support we use and we trust the people giving it. Safety is our priority. The locals are vital to the success of your trip and they love to show you their country. We encourage you to respect all the help and helpers we meet and embrace what is offered to us. Things will be different and cultural differences can be vast, but at the end of the day that’s what the experience is all about.

 

This is India – at its best!

 

Be ready for road and riverside camping

The first couple of nights we will stay in a campsite on the ganges to settle in and get ready for the trip. On the tour the majority of nights we will set up a campsite close to the road or close to the river. These are mostly places owned by the forestry Department for which we have permits. At the end of the trip it is most likely to stay in a hotel in Manali to clean up the mess from the tour.

Be ready for the Indian way

Things are different in india - and that's good! Be prepared for wierd objekts on the road, including cows, elephants, babas, buildings, rivers etc.... Most roads we ride are paved two way- streets, but there are many road constructions and unpaved bits to pass as well. It has been tested before and it is definately do-able!
