Amritsar — 2 Nights / 3 Days Tour
Punjab & Chandigarh · Holy city — The Golden Temple is one of the few places in India that is genuinely as impressive as photographs suggest, and it is at its best at night and again before dawn, when the crowds thin and the marble is cool. Entry is free, open to everyone, and the langar kitchen serves tens of thousands of meals daily to anyone who sits down — volunteering there for an hour tells you more about Sikhism than any tour. Jallianwala Bagh next door is sobering and takes twenty minutes. The Wagah border ceremony is a long afternoon and divides opinion sharply: it is either compelling theatre or uncomfortable nationalism depending on your temperament, and we will tell you honestly which we think you will find it. This 2-night tour is built around the destination's key sights, priced on enquiry and tailored to your dates — the day-by-day below is a flexible framework, confirmed with you at quotation.
