Overview
This is the essential Sikh pilgrimage of central Punjab, paced so it never feels rushed. Over five days you’ll cover Lahore’s sacred sites (Dera Sahib, Samadhi of Ranjit Singh), the birthplace of Guru Nanak Dev Ji at Nankana Sahib, and his final home at Kartarpur, with time for darshan, langar and reflection at each.
We handle airport assistance, hotels, private transport, Punjabi-speaking guides and all gurdwara scheduling, for private families and organised jathas alike. Priced on request as it varies with group size, hotel category and current entry arrangements.
Entry requirements differ by nationality and change over time, especially for Indian passport holders and the Kartarpur Corridor’s separate permit system. We check the current rules for your documents before anything is booked.
