Indian Mutiny Tour

After you arrive at the Delhi airport, you would be greeted by our executives and will be escorted to your hotel for an overnight stay.

Our first destination is Meerut, which is considered to be the centre of the actual uprising in 1857. We visit the church, which goes by the name of St John’s Church, established in 1819 and dedicated to Bishop Wilson. Around 15000 people can be accommodated in the church. During the battle period, the church was the place of fighting between the armies of the British and the Indians. We then visit the cemetery of St John’s Church, where all the generals were buried. We then visit Lekha Nagar and go through the parade grounds in the cantonment area. The marshals who gave rise to the mutiny are stated to be John Finn, Carmichael Smith, all of whom are buried in the parade ground. Other important grounds along the mutiny road happen to be the Kali Paltan Temple.

We then go back to Delhi for an overnight stay.
