Leading Australian adventure travel company, World Expeditions, has launched its 2013-14 Himalaya brochure and it’s packed with exciting new itineraries, including new family adventures, mountaineering expeditions, cutting edge treks, community projects and exotic Indian tours.
To celebrate the launch of these incredible new journeys – and the new brochure, World Expeditions is offering a special earlybird deal of 15% off the second traveller, when two people book on any trip in the new Himalaya & Indian Sub Continent brochure.
Some of the new trips are the Zanskar Ice Trek, on which travellers trek over frozen rivers under crystal clear winter skies in the Indian Himalaya, a new 9 day trek through the remote ethnic villages of North Rajasthan, a 13 day Forts and Palaces of Rajasthan tour and two new family holidays in Nepal – the Tamang Family Trek & Village Experience (Introductory – 12 days) and the Everest Family Trek (Moderate – 15 days).
Other new itineraries have been crafted to co-incide with some of the colourful festivals in the region, including the Thimphu Festival & Trek in Bhutan and three new festival trips in India, organized around the 12 day Jaipur Literature Festival (including two nights at the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel), the Pushkar Camel Fair and the Holi Festival of Colours.
World Expeditions has been running organized treks in the Everest region for many years and with great success. The stunning mountain scenery and the unique cultural experiences deliver an unforgettable experience that’s hard to beat. Itineraries are crafted to allow generous acclimatisation and a leisurely pace. Accommodation is in a combination of comfortable permanent campsites, wilderness camps and hand-picked eco lodges in the main villages.
The new Himalaya and Indian Sub Continent range of adventures is underpinned by the company’s genuine interest in maintaining a small footprint with its range of responsible tourism initiatives while also providing benefits to the local people with employment opportunities.
