Travel Itinerary


We have put our travel itinerary on a map at Google Maps (also shown in sidebar). We start at New Delhi and head northeast to Rishikesh. The final location we visit is Kolkata, where we'll take a train ride back to New Delhi.

The points in the map were added in the order that we will be visiting them.
