Welcome to Delhi, the capital city of India!

In this land, fabled to have seen seven cities over the millennia, signs of the old are continuously jostling with the new, presenting a fascinating and ever-changing panorama.

Location: Jaipur

Accommodation: Hotel

Accommodation Name: Hotel Golden Tulip or Sarovar Premiere Jaipur

Meals Included: Breakfast

After breakfast, set out to explore New Delhi. Drive past the India Gate (a war memorial dedicated to the lost lives of Indian soldiers), the President's Residence (formerly the Viceroy's Palace), the Parliament House and the Secretariat Buildings, which interestingly combines Victorian and 20th-century architecture. Later proceed to Jaipur and en-route visit Qutab Minar, one of the ancient archaeological sites of Delhi, gracefully hand-carved and 234ft tall. It's Iron Pillar has withstood the ravages of time and hasn’t even so much as rusted after 1500 years. Once in Jaipur, check-in at the hotel on arrival. This city, known as the Pink City, is the capital of Rajasthan and boasts broad avenues, ancient forts and magnificent royal palaces where Maharajas once lived, all built with a blushing pink stone. Spend the rest of the day at leisure and overnight at the hotel.

Overnight in Jaipur. 

Day 3 : Jaipur

Location: Jaipur

Accommodation: Hotel

Accommodation Name: Hotel Golden Tulip or Sarovar Premiere Jaipur

Meals Included: Breakfast

Set out in the morning after breakfast, on an excursion to Amer Fort, one of the most beautiful constructions in Rajasthan and a shining example of local architecture. It contains a beautiful Sheesh Mahal, a room in which all four walls and the ceiling are completely embedded with glittering mirror pieces specially imported from Belgium. On the way to Amber Fort, stop at Hawa Mahal to snap some pictures of this stunning ‘Palace of Winds’. In the afternoon, visit the Maharaja's City Palace, the former Royal Residence, part of which has been converted into a museum. A private portion of it is still used by the Royal Family of Jaipur. Following that, visit Jantar Mantar, the world-famous observatory made of stone and marble, still in working condition and finish the day at your hotel in Jaipur.

Overnight in Jaipur.

Day 4 : Jaipur – Fatehpur Sikri – Agra (240 Km – 5 Hrs)

Location: Panwari

Accommodation: Hotel

Accommodation Name: Clarks Shiraz or Crystal Sarovar Premiere

Meals Included: Breakfast

In the morning, after breakfast drive to the spellbinding city of Agra, stopping to visit Fatehpur Sikri along the way. Fatehpur Sikri is a deserted capital city built by Emperor Akbar in 1569 AD. It was abandoned 15 years later due to a severe water shortage. Today, it is listed as a World Heritage Monument. After this short visit, continue to Agra and check-in at the hotel on arrival. Agra is one of the most visited cities in India, and most of its visitors come for one thing: the Taj Mahal, which you will visit in the afternoon. Its white non-porous marble is a witness to the true love of emperor Shah Jehan for his beloved Mumtaz Mahal, enshrining in the edifice her mortal remains. For that reason, it is often referred to as a ‘Love Poem in Marble' (closed on Fridays). Your day ends with your return to your selected accommodation in Agra.

Overnight in Agra.

In the afternoon, drive back to Delhi, and check in to your hotel.
