This is truly the trip of a lifetime. The diversity of India cannot be captured in a single visit, yet this itinerary takes you on a very special spiritual journey. From the silver-clad temple of Akshardham to the Monkey Temple of Hanuman, your time in Delhi will be spent exploring little-known gems. After an unforgettable overnight train journey, you will find yourself in the exiled home and temple of the Dalai Lama, in the foothills of the Himalayas. An itinerary like no other, we will also whisk you away to the iconic Taj Mahal, to celebrate the culmination of the tour! However, all of these delights pale into insignificance compared to your trek up into the snowy Himalayas. This is the truly awe-inspiring part of your journey! Over five days you will make your way along donkey tracks, past ramshackle villages where friendly children giggle and shy ladies in beautiful saris tend to their goats and cows. You will camp next to clear, babbling springs, under skies full of stars.

I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

Manu and his team are just amazing! This trip was everything and more than I dreamed of. The magic never stopped with all the delights India had to offer from the wacky tuk tuk races in Delhi to the serene mountain tops above Triund. Fleecy lined sleeping bags and mats that you sank into sum up the level of hi spec equipment and attention to detail Manu Adventures provides. Nothing is to much for any of the staff and they constantly tweaked the trip around all our desires to experience more and more! The passion, knowledge and support provided by Manu and his team outshines any other company I have travelled with - just book it as you'll never have any regrets!

Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that Manu and the team exceeded your expectations. Your kind words highlight what we strive for—making each trip unforgettable. Looking forward to welcoming you on another adventure soon!

Fantastic India trip

India - a vast and fascinating country with a diverse culture. To sample just part of this in 12 days Manu had arranged the perfect itinerary which we all thoroughly enjoyed. From the jaw dropping vistas & beautiful unspoiled rural villages of his incredible mountain hike in the Himalaya foothills to the bustling cities of Delhi & Agra which included visits to the iconic Taj Mahal & the Delhi Red Fort he was always there with us ensuring we were having the best possible experience. The equipment provided for the trek was of great quality & perfect for the job and the freshly cooked food provided delicious ! Hotel accommodation & transport provided were also spot on. Manu himself was warm, friendly with a great sense of humour & would never rest until everyone was happy. To experience India, we would definitely recommend Manu Adventures to anyone looking for a similar experience. Thank you again to Manu & his team !!

Response from the operator: Thank you, Andrew & Wendy! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed exploring India with Manu and appreciated the well-planned itinerary. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we're delighted you had such a memorable adventure. Safe travels!

The best way to experience the Magic of India

Manu looked after us so well at all times of our trip. He organised everything seamlessly, including good quality transport, bunks all together on the sleeper train, hotels with rooftop views of the Taj Mahal - nothing was too much trouble for him. Our trekking experience was made even more amazing because we were so comfy in brand new tents, warm sleeping bags and thick, cushioned mats. Everything was just one notch above the experiences I've had with other companies. Manu really understands that we want to experience the "real india", whilst still enjoying some of our creature comforts. And the food was always amazing!

Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you soon. 🙏

Best experience I’ve ever had

I had the best time ever with Manu Adventures India. Manu himself is kind, very helpful, and full of humour. I can guarantee anybody who loves the outdoors and loves discovering cultures from across the world, will definitely love every moment of this experience as did I and the group I went with. It was honestly an incredible experience and it will not be the last time I will see Manu and his team! I took my camera with me this trip and caught some absolutely amazing moments. Thank you Manu and the team, you guys were incredible!

Response from the operator: Thank you, Alex! We're thrilled to hear you had such an incredible experience with Manu Adventures India. Capturing those amazing moments with your camera sounds fantastic. We look forward to welcoming you and your group back for more adventures!

Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.

How much does Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek cost?

+

Prices start at ₹120,000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New Delhi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek take?

+

Plan for about 264 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New Delhi is not rushed.

Is Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in New Delhi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek?

+

No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

Is Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 7. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 264-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek?

+

Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New Delhi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New Delhi and add a light layer if any part of the 264-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New Delhi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in New Delhi?

+

On Outty we rank every New Delhi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Taj Mahal & Agra Fort Private Day Trip From Delhi with 5* Lunch, 5 Nights 6 Days Private Golden Triangle Tour - Delhi Agra Jaipur, Old & New Delhi Private City Tour – Traveler’s Choice (Top Rated). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit New Delhi?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in New Delhi?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

What is included in Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek?

+

Included: Train tickets; Lunch; Dinner; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Breakfast. Not included: Airport and departure taxes; and Tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

Does Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek include hotel pickup?

+

Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around New Delhi. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time.

What languages is Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek offered in?

+

It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek?

+

Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

Is Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek wheelchair or stroller accessible?

+

The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

What happens to Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek if the weather is bad?

+

It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in New Delhi. Standard cancellation terms apply.

What do travelers say about Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek?

+

Across 8 reviews averaging 5.0 out of 5, recurring themes include food and drink, organization. The tastings and food stops are a highlight for most reviewers.
