*SPECIAL FESTIVAL OF HOLI (March 13, 2019 departure only): The group will celebrate the famous festival of colours in Varanasi which is the holiest city of the world and a symbol of spirituality and pureness as per Indian Mythology. Celebrating Holi in the holy city of Varanasi is something that should make you throw caution to the wind and book your tickets! Menacing, threatening, ruthless are words that one often hears about Varanasi but brave travellers might love the carefree vibe and the zealous celebrations in the city of Shiva. It’s basically Hindu spring Festival also known as the “Festival of Colors”. The festival signifies the victory of good over evil. Where people smear each other with colors and drench each other. It’s a sign of forgiveness and happiness.
