Over into Nepal the Kangshung face of Everest, Makalu and Lhotse are visible, as well as extensive views into both Sikkim and Bhutan. Descending past traditional villages, this journey through the summer retreats of the Raj is complete with a visit to the famous, historic Himalayan Hotel, Kalimpong before returning to Delhi.
