Perhaps we’ve all felt it: that nagging urge for change, redefinition, new pathways and deeper understandings.
That’s when India calls. A vastly resplendent country, prodigiously textured, outrageously technicolored, spellbindingly ancient, ever welcoming and mysterious; it manages to be both a gloriously indulgent sensory overload and a calmingly clear connection to that proverbial search for the meaning of life. If a quiet ashram — read: monastery — for the study of yoga, chakras and the centuries-old science of Ayurveda seems too extreme for your next transformational travel adventure, boutique Uniworld has something to suit.
With the mission to navigate the complex country with clarity, Uniworld has developed a collection of India sailings to immerse guests in the nation’s heart-opening yoga and spiritual history while exploring a panoply of monuments, foods, sights and unique experiences. Aboard Uniworld’s India river cruises, guests can take advantage of an exclusive wellness program that offers twice-daily yoga classes with an onboard dedicated yogi, holistic living workshops, one-on-one meditation and yoga practices, and daily Indian-focused, educational seminars that unveil the mysteries of an alternative approach to well-being. All the while, guests will be visiting once-in-a-lifetime locales such as the Taj Mahal; staying in the country’s most luxurious hotel; relaxing in palatial staterooms during the sail; tasting the country’s tempting culinary offerings; and cruising on the sacred Ganges River past villages full of artisans schooled in techniques passed from generation to generation.
