October 22nd – November 5th, 2023
You will need a passport to travel to India. Your passport should be valid until at least May 2024 and it should have 2 full empty pages.
If you don’t have enough empty pages, please contact us and we will send you instructions for getting a new passport in time for the tour.
Every traveler to India needs a visa, however, citizens of the USA, Australia, New Zealand, and most European countries may easily obtain an “e-visa”. With the e-visa, you can simply take care of the procedures online.
Overall, the process is very easy, takes about 5 minutes and costs about $50 USD. We recommend applying for your e-visa 1 month prior to the tour. We will send out the detailed instructions to obtain the visa through the official government website once the dates get closer.
Canadian citizens need to obtain a visa from the Indian Embassy/Consulate. To apply for this visa, please make an appointment at BLS – the official Indian visa processing agency in Canada – at your earliest convenience. BLS will provide you with the visa instructions.
Please note that the arrival and departure airport for this tour is Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) and your flight to/from India should be for this airport only.
In order to participate in this tour, you will have to provide proof of travel/health insurance. Travel insurance provides peace of mind that, in case something happens, you don’t have to worry about paying for any health-related costs you may need or about being reimbursed for any travel expenses associated with flight delays or trip cancellations due to unforeseen reasons. It will also cover your possessions in the event that they are misplaced during the trip.
There are many options out there, so we suggest shopping around. Once you have it, please send proof of that insurance to team@wanderingearl.com for our records. You can do so by attaching a screenshot or downloading the policy confirmation.
