Mughal Gardens and Palaces - 29 November to 11 December 2012

Palace Gardens Deeg

Our trip to India takes in some of the finest Mughal gardens and palaces of North India. The tour's host John Brookes has arranged a number of special events to make your visits especially memorable.

The palaces and gardens of North India were built by the 16th and 17th-century Mughal emperors to house their great courts.

As well as visiting some of the major sites and gardens, the journey also takes in many of the less visited yet stunning gardens and palaces in the region, thanks to the connections of your tour leader, the distinguished designer John Brookes. A number of events have also been planned for the party.
