Important notes
A 5-day private itinerary. Longer versions add stops rather than padding existing days.,The Mahabodhi Temple and the Nalanda ruins shut at sunset, and the monasteries close for part of the afternoon — the order is built around them.,Bodh Gaya fills to capacity for the Dalai Lama's December and January teachings, so accommodation there should be booked well ahead.,Routes that cross into Uttar Pradesh for Sarnath, Varanasi or Kushinagar, into Jharkhand, or into West Bengal include those states' places in the same itinerary.
