A visit to Old Delhi is always an experience. Walk through the ancient bustling, twisting alleyways of Chandni Chowk, the bazaar area and the Red Fort as well as the Jama Masjid (India's biggest mosque). For those who want to see more, there is the Raj Ghat where Gandhi was cremated and which today is a peaceful and popular park. The British built New Delhi, carefully planning the city and the main metropolitan area, when they moved their capital here from Calcutta in 1911. With many interesting museums and art galleries, and several monuments constructed by the mighty Mughal Emperors such as Humayun's Tomb and the Qutab Minar, there is plenty to explore in Delhi. Drive past the India Gate and the Rashtrapati Bhawan (The Presidential Palace). Visit also the prominent Sikh temple at Bangla Sahib. Delhi is a shopper's paradise. It is one big emporium for all of India's handicrafts, and home to some of the best contemporary designers that India can boast of. This energetic city now has good dining and night-life options to complement its considerable historical and architectural interest. Overnight at the hotel. (Vehicle at disposal)

Early in the morning you will be transferred to the New Delhi railway station to board a train for Gwalior. On arrival check in at your hotel. Gwalior is the northern-most city of Madhya Pradesh, and is dominated by its imposing fort, which rises 100m above the town and dates back over 1000 years. Within its imposing structure are several palaces and temples, each with its own architectural and aesthetic beauty. Not much frequented by tourists, this city is free from the bustle that is usually associated with tourism, and exudes a unique charm of its own. After lunch we will visit the majestic Gwalior Fort. Gwalior was the capital of the Tomar kings and the fort was built by Raja Man Singh Tomar. Built on a rocky outcrop, it was among the most invincible forts in India. Overnight at the hotel. (Vehicle for transfer and sightseeing)

In the morning you will be transferred to the railway station to board a train for Jhansi. You will be met on arrival at Jhansi and driven to Orchha. Check-in at your hotel. After lunch go on a sightseeing tour of Orchha covering the fort complex, the Jahangir Mahal, the Raj Mahal, the Rai Praveen Mahal and the Chaturbhuj and Laxminarayan temples. Like something straight out of an Indiana Jones film, this sleepy village has much to show of its glorious past. Huge crumbling temples and palaces rise out of the surrounding jungle, overlooking the undulating hills and the wide boulder-strewn Betwa River. A small village can be found amongst the ruins of this once mighty city, which was the capital of the Bundela kingdom from 1531 to 1783. Overnight at the hotel. (Vehicle for transfers & sightseeing at Orchha)

In the morning we will drive to Khajuraho and on arrival check-in at the hotel. After lunch we will visit the eastern & western groups of temples. The small sleepy town of Khajuraho was once the religious capital of the Chandela dynasty, which built 85 magnificent temples here and decorated them with intricate and lively erotic sculptures drawing inspiration from and illustrating the concepts of the Kama Sutra, an ancient Indian text on love. Only twenty-two of these highly erotic sandstone temples remain, though they are well preserved and showcase a prolific period of Hindu temple sculpture, though the importance of eroticism in these temples is still a mystery. Overnight at the hotel. (Vehicle at your disposal)

In the morning we will drive to Bandhavgarh and on arrival check-in at the hotel. Spend the rest of the day at leisure. Set amidst the Vindhya and Satpura range of mountains, the Bandhavgarh National Park is one of the best places to view wildlife in India. It has a relatively high density of Tigers in addition to Deer, Langur monkeys, Sloth Bear and a variety of avian fauna. The park has a huge sandstone cliff in the centre, surrounded by Sal and Bamboo forests. Game safaris go out on jeeps in the early morning and in the afternoon. Domesticated elephants are also on hand and can be used for short explorations into the forest and for tiger sightings up-close. Between game drives, you may explore the temple in the park, which is guarded by a beautiful sleeping Vishnu. Bandhavgarh National Park is open from Oct till June (subject to change).

The Kanha Tiger Reserve is primarily a Sal, Bamboo and mixed deciduous jungle covering 1,954 sq. km, and situated amongst the plateaus and valleys of the beautiful Maikal Hills in Central India. It is one of India's premier Tiger Reserves, having an official count of 129 animals of the species within its boundaries. It is also the only place on earth where one can find the Hard Ground Swamp Deer or Barasingha, a species that was on the brink of extinction not very long ago with just 66 animals, but now numbers more than 450. Other animals observed at Kanha include Leopards, Bison, Wild Dogs, Sloth Bear, Antelopes, Nilgai, Pangolins and Flying Squirrels to name a few. Reptiles and amphibians are found in abundance and a record of almost 300 species of birds have thrilled ornithologists, with each year bringing an unusual newcomer or two to the area. The Kanha National Park is open from Oct to June. Overnight at the hotel. (Vehicle for transfer only)

After breakfast we will drive to Kawardha, and on arrival check-in at the hotel. Of India's many jewels, Kawardha is truly a treasure trove of breath-taking beauty and fascinating reminders of the country's cultural heritage. Kawardha is a small town that lies in the region occupied by the Gond and Baiga tribes, and is famous for its natural beauty and the Bhoramdeo temple (which is also known by the sobriquet, "the Khajuraho of Chhattisgarh")  Kawardha's magic lies in its tranquillity, and its isolation from India's well trodden paths. This peaceful town, at the foot of the Maikal Hills, is located in the relatively unexplored north western region of Chhattisgarh State. Another highlight of the area is the Italian designed Kawardha Palace which is an ideal base for visiting the surrounding tribal areas.
