Tour Overview
The tour is a sample of the splendor of India's famous Golden Triangle, i.e., Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, in a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The tour planned is a fine mixture of culture, history, and architecture that takes the visitors closer to India's history. From Delhi's vibrant bazaars and Mughal splendor, to the stunning beauty of the Taj Mahal at Agra and imperial splendor at Jaipur, this is a journey that will leave you with memories to last a lifetime. You'll travel in style by chauffeur-driven car and be transferred safely and conveniently from city to monument in the skilled hands of our experienced drivers and personally selected guides.
Golden Triangle is India's most sought-after tourist circuit that puts India's imperial heritage within easy proximity of one another. Every city of the Golden Triangle has one thing to show of Indian history—Delhi the union of old and new, Agra the Mughal heritage, and Jaipur the majesty of Rajasthan's imperial heritage. The trip is perfect for culture-freaks, history-freaks, and first-timers who want to sample India's boundless variety in a week or two.
To add to your Golden Triangle trip even more, there are loads of add-on activities and best-kept secrets to include along the way. In Delhi, stroll through the Hauz Khas Village, a blend of medieval forts and trendy cafes, or dine your way along Old Delhi and try such treats as parathas, kebabs, and jalebis. Agra is merely the tip of the iceberg—trips to Akbar's Tomb at Sikandra or Mughal gardens like Ram Bagh provide a glimpse of the imperial heritage of the city.
Jaipur, the city of imperial pomp, has much more up its sleeve than its palaces. Witness Nahargarh Fort against the backdrop of the setting sun over the Pink City, or attend a traditional Rajasthani cookery class and learn local tips of the trade. For a solitary nature experience, an overnight day tour to Ranthambore National Park (best with a longer tour) provides the exhilaration of spotting Bengal tigers in their habitat. Adventure, cultural discovery, or gastronomical delight - the Golden Triangle has something to suit every flavor. Customization options allow the tourists to tailor the trip, thus making it a memorable quest of India's diversities and experiences. Travel to India is here to guide you.
