- Michael· February 25th, 2019This Buddha pilgrimage took me to all the sites I wanted to visit. From Lumbini, Nepal (birthplace), through India ... Kapilavastu (childhood home), Bodhgaya (where enlightened), Rajgir, Sravasti, and Vaishali (lectured/taught), and Kushinagar (place of death). Also enjoyed seeing Hindu ceremonies along the River Ganga. Biggest advantage of this tour is driving in a smaller vehicle with a small group, as opposed to a large bus with larger tour group (slower pace).Show moreVaranasi Excursion Pvt Ltd commented on this reviewHello Miichael, thank you very much for your valuable Review and good words.
