About this trip
Five days covering India's classic Golden Triangle route: Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. It's the well-worn introduction to northern India, taking in Mughal architecture, Rajasthani forts and one of the world's most recognised buildings.
In Delhi you'll move between the old city's bazaars and the wider avenues of the newer, planned capital. Jaipur brings the forts and palaces of Rajasthan's former princely state, while Agra is built around a sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal on the banks of the Yamuna.
This is a fully guided group tour with meals included, suited to a first look at India's history and architecture rather than deep cultural immersion.
What you'll do
- Watch sunrise at the Taj Mahal in Agra
- Explore the forts and palaces of Jaipur, Rajasthan's former royal capital
- Wander Delhi's old city bazaars
- See Mughal-era buildings alongside Delhi's planned government quarter
- Travel the full Delhi-Agra-Jaipur circuit in one guided trip
- Fast-paced — three cities covered in five days
- Fully guided throughout, with meals included
- Runs around Christmas, New Year and Holi as well as standard group departures
Worth it if you want a well-guided cultural overview with standout local guides and drivers. Think twice if you need certainty on hotel quality and a fully itemised cost breakdown upfront.
- Drivers (Kanwar Singh, Rajesh, Ranvir) and guides consistently praised for friendliness, punctuality, knowledge and going beyond expectations.
- Hotels booked online without site inspection; company doesn't provide links, leaving room to substitute similar-named properties. Monument entry fees not always included upfront.
- Visits to marble and textile shops happen; guides frame as cultural education rather than hard sell, but expect the pitch.
- Solo female travellers consistently report feeling safe throughout. Train option to Taj Mahal available and saves hours versus bus travel.
