Across the Universe you will journey…and live like the Beatles if only for a moment… you will never forget this remarkable time in India…it’s guaranteed to raise a smile.
“So we were enquiring into all sorts of various things, and because George was into Indian music, the natural thing was to ask: ‘Well, what is this meditation lark? Do they levitate? Can they really fly? Can the snake-charmer really climb up the rope?’ It was just pure enquiry, and after we met Maharishi and thought about it all, we went out to Rishikesh.”
-Paul McCartney
from “The Beatles Anthology”

marking an Anniversary. Making history. The Gala Signature Experience.
In addition, 2018 marks the 50th Anniversary of the Beatles historic journey to Rishikesh, India. Beatles India Tours is proud to announce our “Gala Signature Experience” for this very special occasion. Our celebration tour will follow in the footsteps of the Beatles – traveling during the exact dates of their travel 50 years ago.
We will utilize vintage transport, provide custom garments inspired by the Indian clothes they wore at the ashram in Rishikesh, and we will explore topics in casual talks and presentations that touch on what they learned with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi at his spiritual center. While there will be luxury beyond belief at every turn, we will have a humble and simple experience while we devote time to nature, to music, and to learning while we are in Rishikesh – giving a sense of what the Beatles themselves experienced on their historic trip.
Making this very special anniversary a “Gala Signature Experience” means we have designed other aspects of this journey around the most spectacular accommodations and locations in India. These places are among the best in the world. Our traditional tour uses a mix of heritage and luxury properties. But we felt this important occasion should be enjoyed in an even more lavish and unique manner befitting a Beatle…and you will see what we mean.
Palaces, forts and fairytale settings on this gala journey will overwhelm your senses. Plus great attention to the details of Beatles history will be woven throughout…and every effort will be made to make this experience every fan’s dream come true. This is our sincere mission.
This gala experience is limited to 8 passengers. Deadline for reservation is January 15, 2018 with travel commencing on February 17, 2018.
