The European and worldwide walking holiday operator has expanded its India programme for 2026 with four new guided walking holidays.
The tours give groups the opportunity to see the best the historic country has to offer, from the high-altitude Himalayan landscapes to tropical southern backwaters.
Led by expert walk leaders, the new itineraries span the states of West Bengal, Madhya Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Ladakh, along with a detour into neighbouring Bhutan. Each itinerary has been created to showcase the diversity and contrasts of India beyond the standard tourist trails and destinations.
Highlights include high altitude trekking into remote lands home to Tubetan Buddhist culture, scenic routes through the Himalayan mountains and Bhutan with a hike to the Tiger’s Nest Monastery and the UNESCO World Heritage Darjeeling Himalayan Railway; and a side trip to the iconic Taj Mahal.
Wayne Perks, managing director, Ramble Worldwide said: “India’s extraordinary geographical and cultural diversity makes it one of the world’s most rewarding destinations for walking holidays, and is a proven favourite with our customers.
“India has also enjoyed heightened visibility recently through mainstream media such as Race Across the World, which has reignited traveller interest.”
