Golden Triangle with Varanasi / Ganges ( 7 Nights /

This is a private, fully guided tour through India's classic Golden Triangle, extended to take in Varanasi on the Ganges. You move between Delhi, Agra and Jaipur before flying on to one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.

The pace is easy and sightseeing-focused, with a guide and driver throughout rather than a group to keep up with. It suits travellers who want the big Indian landmarks alongside something more spiritual and less polished around the edges in Varanasi.

Expect forts, palaces and the Taj Mahal in the first stretch, then a shift in tone as you reach the ghats and river life of Varanasi.

What you'll do

• Explore Delhi's mix of old city and colonial-era landmarks over three nights
• See the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort
• Visit Jaipur's palaces and forts in the Pink City
• Take a boat out on the Ganges at Varanasi
• Watch the evening aarti ceremony along the ghats
