Day 1: Delhi to Agra
Begin your journey with pickup from your hotel or the airport in Delhi. Explore Old Delhi’s vibrant charm — visit Jama Masjid, India’s largest mosque, then ride a rickshaw through Chandni Chowk, and admire the Red Fort from outside. Continue to Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, a Sikh temple where the community kitchen feeds thousands daily.
In New Delhi, visit Humayun’s Tomb, that inspired the Taj Mahal. Continue to the Qutub Minar, the world’s tallest brick minaret, and admire the Lotus Temple, a serene lotus-shaped architectural wonder before a drive past India Gate, Parliament House, and Rashtrapati Bhavan. Later, drive to Agra (approx. 3–4 hours) and check in to your hotel for an evening at leisure.
Day 2: Agra to Jaipur
Rise early to experience the Taj Mahal at sunrise, glowing in soft pink and gold hues, as your expert guide shares the timeless story of Emperor Shah Jahan’s love for Mumtaz Mahal. Return to your hotel for breakfast, followed by check-out. Later, explore the Agra Fort, a UNESCO-listed, complex of Mughal palaces and royal halls, followed by a visit to the Baby Taj, famed for its delicate marble inlay work.
After lunch, choose one of the following:
• Elephant Conservation & Care Center – Meet rescued elephants in a caring environment (no rides or performances).
• Fatehpur Sikri – Explore the former Mughal capital, its grand gates, and royal courtyards.
Continue your drive to Jaipur (approx. 4 hours), check in at your hotel, and relax.
Day 3: Jaipur to Delhi
After breakfast, visit the magnificent UNESCO-listed Amber Fort, perched atop a scenic hill. Ascend by jeep or on foot (no animal rides). See the Panna Meena Stepwell, an elegant marvel of symmetry, and stop at Jal Mahal, the stunning palace floating on Man Sagar Lake.
Explore Jaipur’s colorful local markets, filled with handmade jewelry, fabrics, and other artisan crafts. Visit the City Palace, a Mughal-Rajput masterpiece, and the Jantar Mantar, an ancient astronomical observatory. Snap photos of Hawa Mahal from its best street viewpoint.
Later, head to serene royal cenotaps of Gaitor Tumbas, intricately carved marble pavilions, and conclude with a stunning sunset at Nahargarh Fort, overlooking the Pink City. Afterward, drive back to Delhi (approx. 5 hours) or choose drop-off in Jaipur or Agra as per your onward plans.
