Walking with the Buddha: A Pilgrimage to India & Nepal; February 8-21, 2025

The Buddha said there are four sites that every committed dharma practitioner should visit: Lumbini, where he was born; Bodhgaya, where he attained enlightenment; Sarnath, where he gave his first sermon, and Kushinagar, where he passed into parinirvana.

Take a once-in-a-lifetime journey to visit these sacred sites across Northern India and Nepal. On this special triple-carbon-offset pilgrimage, coming up February 8-21, 2025 (with option to extend in Kathmandu until February 24), you’ll visit some of Buddhism’s most holy places with an intimate group of like-minded seekers and practitioners.

With the expert guidance of Buddhist teacher and author Vishvapani Blomfield, RetreaTours owners BJ Graf & Lauren Rathvon, and an expert local guide, Tricycle pilgrims will retrace the steps of the Buddha, exploring the iconic locations where he lived and taught.

Sustainability is our priority. RetreaTours is officially a Carbonfree® Partner with Carbonfund.org. Their “carbon negative” commitment means that throughout every step of the pilgrimage, RetreaTours offsets more carbon than is produced, making this trip as sustainable as it will be memorable.
