Discover Northern India's great cities and cites, including the Taj Mahal. The Heart of India tour from Overseas Adventure travel is incredible. I have taken it.

Priced as low as $1,495 (a savings of as much as $2,400) this is an adventure you'll really remember. And, a price that's less than $100 a day.
