About this trip
Nine days through northern India's classic Golden Triangle, with an extension to Varanasi that most short trips skip. You'll move between Delhi, Jaipur and Agra before heading east to the Ganges, then loop back to Delhi to finish.
The pace mixes big-name sights with genuine atmosphere — Jaipur's pink-hued old city, the Taj Mahal at Agra, and the deeply different rhythm of Varanasi, where life and ritual play out along the riverbanks.
It's an easy-going, partially guided trip, so there's room to explore independently as well as with your group.
