This tour is specially designed for devout Buddhists who wish to visit all pilgrimage sites of Nepal and India. Since Buddha was born in Lumbini, Nepal is a very important place for all Buddhists all over the world.

In India, Lord Buddha attained the supreme bliss of enlightenment at Bodhgaya and had given his first sermon at Saranath after enlightenment.
