Himalayan Reset & Royal India is a private, wellness-led journey that moves from Delhi’s imperial layers into the Ganges valley, before slowing fully into a structured retreat at Ananda in the Himalayas. From there, the route shifts into Rajasthan’s restored-fort quiet and Jaipur’s palace heritage, ending with Mumbai’s coastal energy. Designed as a Signature journey, all meals are included and pacing is adjusted in real time by your Farbound trip lead. Ananda is the centrepiece—set above the Ganges valley near Rishikesh, and known for integrated wellness programmes that combine consultations, therapies, and daily movement practices.

Age : 25–80
Day 1 - Delhi
- Meet your trip guide and begin exploring the contrasts of Old and New Delhi
- Experience Old Delhi by rickshaw, weaving through historic lanes, spice markets, and buzzing bazaars
- Visit Humayun’s Tomb and Qutub Minar, plus other key architectural landmarks of the capital
- Short walks, private transport, and flexible pacing throughout the day
- Evening at leisure, with support in planning how you’d like to spend it — from curated dinner reservations to recommended neighbourhoods and experiences based on your interests
- Personalize: Add an arrival-and-recovery day, or swap markets for a museum-led route
Day 2 - Rishikesh
- Fly to Dehradun and transfer by road into the Ganges valley.
- Arrive and settle into a quieter pace, designed to downshift after city days.
- Late afternoon remains light so you can absorb the setting without being rushed.
- Attend the Ganga aarti in Rishikesh, timed for real crowd and river conditions.
- All meals included, with the evening kept calm after the ceremony.
Day 3 - Ananda
- Arrive at Ananda and shift into a quieter altitude pace above the Ganges valley. The property is designed for genuine restoration: space, silence, views, and a staff cadence that encourages you to slow down.
- Your days here can be as structured or as open as you want—morning yoga or meditation, a wellness consultation if you prefer, spa therapies, fitness sessions, or simply long breaks between meals.
- The focus is not doing more; it’s feeling better. Your trip lead stays in the background, keeping logistics and timing invisible.
Personalize: Prioritise spa therapies, yoga/meditation, fitness, or pure downtime—your mix.
Day 4 - Ananda
- A full day at Ananda built around calm rhythm and choice. Start early or sleep in; keep the morning active with movement practices or keep it quiet with spa time and rest.
- If you want depth, add a wellness consultation to refine what “reset” means for you—sleep, stress, digestion, mobility, or simply recovery from travel.
- Between sessions, the property’s setting does the work: air, elevation, and stillness. Meals are included and paced to keep the day unhurried.
Personalize: Make this a high-treatment day, a movement-led day, or a low-intervention rest day.
Day 5 - Ananda
- Your final full day at Ananda is about consolidation—leaving with steadier energy rather than a packed checklist. Choose one anchor experience (a signature therapy, a longer yoga/meditation practice, or a fitness session) and keep the rest spacious.
- This is where small refinements matter: timing meals to how you feel, building long breaks into the day, and leaving margin for sleep.
- Your trip lead protects that margin by managing practicalities without bringing noise into the retreat flow.
Personalize: Add a signature spa sequence, extend downtime, or include a private session if you want more depth.
Day 6 - Fly to Jaipur
- Fly from Dehradun to Jaipur
- Check in to Rambagh palace hotel for a palace-city base.
- Begin sightseeing at a comfortable pace
- Add landmarks based on your interest: forts, royal collections, or observatory history.
- Downtime is protected so the day still feels like a Signature journey, not a tour grind.
- All meals included, with dinner planned at the finest resteaurants in the city.
Personalize: Add a textile or atelier layer, or keep the afternoon fully open for rest.
Day 7 - Jaipur immersion
- A second Jaipur day to go deeper with more space and less rushing.
- Shape the day around your preferred depth: architecture, craft, or markets.
- Routing is adjusted around heat and crowd peaks.
- Time can be held for a slower lunch, spa block, or quiet return to the hotel.
- All meals included; timing remains flexible around your pacing.
- Personalize: Add an early Amber start, or replace markets with a gallery-led route.
Day 8 - Mumbai
- Fly to Mumbai and check in at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel.
- A short, high‑signal introduction to Mumbai—landmarks that matter, neighbourhoods that tell the story, and no long checklist. We shape the route around your interests and energy level.
- Relax at the hotel or head out for a curated dinner recommendation depending on your mood.
- Personalize: Add an art-gallery route, or keep the day lighter after travel
Day 9 - Mumbai
- Elephanta Caves by speedboat - UNESCO visit with a guided walk through the main sculptural panels and time at the viewpoints.
- Light remainder of the day—perfect for a relaxed lunch, a seaside drive, or simply packing and preparing for departure.
- Transfers & sightseeing are planned around your mood and interests.
- Personalize: If you prefer to skip Elephanta, replace with a slower city finale, boutique shopping, or a neighbourhood walk instead.
