Start your day with a guided tour of Old Delhi’s Mughal masterpieces, including the majestic Red Fort and the sprawling Jama Masjid. Navigate the vibrant chaos of Chandni Chowk on a traditional rickshaw before paying your respects at Rajghat, the memorial to Mahatma Gandhi. The afternoon features the soaring Qutub Minar, the serene Lotus Temple, and a drive past the stately Rashtrapati Bhavan and India Gate. After a full day of discovery, return to your hotel for a lavish dinner and a restful night’s sleep.
Travel through the scenic countryside toward Agra, observing the rhythmic daily life of local villages along the way. Upon arrival, visit the Agra Fort, a massive red sandstone citadel offering stunning views of the Yamuna River.

Finish your evening by checking into your hotel for a relaxing overnight stay in the city of the Taj.
Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Taj Mahal as the first light of dawn hits its pearly facade. After breakfast, depart for Jaipur, stopping en route at the “Ghost City” of Fatehpur Sikri.
