  • The world-famous Ananda Spa is no-doubt on your 'must-do' list, but, with that hectic schedule of yours, we suspect there's been little chance to get a wee trip organised – so, allow us...
     
  • Our terrific TWX ground-handlers in India will meet you at Delhi airport and escort you to the Taj Palace hotel, where you will spend your first night and have a chance to collect your breath and acclimatise a little before heading out of town the next day.
     
  • From Delhi train station you will board a train for Haridwar in the Himalaya. You will breakfast on board the train (and in great style) as you chug your way toward Haridwar train station.

  • Again, there'll be a helpful TWX representative there to meet you and take you on to the Ananda Spa, rated as the best destination spa in the world by Condè Nast who, let’s face it, know a thing or two.
     
  • Ananda Spa sits in the Himalayan Mountains overlooking the Ganges River - a sacred spot and the perfect site for a wellness retreat.
     
  • …And if the magnificent landscape isn't enough for you, this resort also resides in a palace estate, the former residence of the Maharaja of Tehri Garhwal.
     
  • Along with luxurious Raj-era décor, Tantric art and spa cuisine, you'll find The Wellness Centre. It is staffed by nutritionists, physicians and spa therapists who use a combination of traditional Indian and modern Western techniques, many of which incorporate Himalayan spring waters.

  • The picturesque 21,000 square foot spa offers an extensive menu of over 79 body and beauty treatments, integrating the traditional Indian systems of Ayurveda with the more contemporary Western spa approach.
     
  • …You will, no doubt, achieve the ultimate harmony between the physical and the mental.
     
  • Your Ananda Ayurvedic Rejuvenation schedule will be devised for you by the Spa practitioner. The personalised therapy and activities programs is designed to meet individual needs and health goals = gently guiding you towards a better lifestyle (and undoing the effects of that madcap lifestyle of yours).

  • After your seven nights at the Ananda, you will no-doubt be unrecognisable - and, as hard to imagine as it is, looking and feeling even better than usual. Your driver will collect you from the spa and take you back to Delhi for a restful night at the Taj Palace.
     
  • Naturally, no visit to India would be complete without a visit to the Taj Mahal, so we've incorporated a special side trip to Agra the next day with the help of our expert operators in India.
     
  • You will get to stay overnight in Agra at The Gateway Hotel for your final night in India before returning to Delhi for your onward journey… And we can’t think of a better way to check the Ananda Spa off of your must-do list.
