Day 1: Welcome to Delhi – The Historical Heartbeat
Your tour begins in Delhi, India’s vibrant capital that beautifully blends ancient charm with modernity. After checking into your hotel, you'll explore the contrasting faces of the city.

In Old Delhi, you'll visit the majestic Red Fort, the spiritual Jama Masjid, and navigate the bustling bazaars of Chandni Chowk by rickshaw. The chaotic charm of Old Delhi is both thrilling and unforgettable.

Later, New Delhi awaits with its wide avenues and grand colonial buildings. Highlights include India Gate, Rashtrapati Bhavan, Lotus Temple, Humayun’s Tomb, and the towering Qutub Minar. Wrap up your day with a delicious Indian dinner and overnight stay in Delhi.

Day 2: Delhi to Agra – City of Love
After breakfast, you’ll set off for Agra, a journey of about 3–4 hours via the modern Yamuna Expressway. Upon arrival, you’ll visit the crown jewel of Indian architecture—the Taj Mahal. This ivory-white marble monument, built by Emperor Shah Jahan for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, is a breathtaking symbol of eternal love.

Post lunch, head to the grand Agra Fort, where Mughal emperors once resided. Optional visits may include the Itimad-ud-Daulah (Baby Taj) and Mehtab Bagh, which offers a riverside view of the Taj Mahal at sunset.

Spend the night in Agra and enjoy some local shopping—especially for marble crafts, leather goods, and sweet delicacies like petha.

Day 3: Agra to Jaipur via Fatehpur Sikri
After breakfast, you’ll leave Agra and drive towards Jaipur, the Pink City. En route, stop at Fatehpur Sikri, a 16th-century Mughal city that was once the empire's capital. This UNESCO site features stunning architecture, including Buland Darwaza and Jama Masjid.

Continue your journey to Jaipur, which takes another 4–5 hours. Once in Jaipur, check in at your hotel and enjoy a relaxing evening. You may also explore local markets filled with colorful textiles, traditional jewelry, and handmade crafts.

Day 4: Discovering Jaipur – The Royal Capital
Begin your day with a visit to the majestic Amber Fort, located on a hill overlooking Maota Lake. Ride an elephant or a jeep to reach the entrance and explore the beautiful courtyards, halls, and mirror palace inside.

Next, visit the City Palace, which showcases a blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture and still serves as the royal residence. Nearby, you'll find the Jantar Mantar, a well-preserved astronomical observatory and UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Stop by the iconic Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds) for photos and then head to Albert Hall Museum if time permits. End your day with a cultural evening of Rajasthani folk music and dance, along with a traditional dinner.

Day 5: Return to Delhi or Optional Extension
On the final day, you’ll have the option to either drive back to Delhi or extend your trip with an optional excursion to places like Pushkar, Ranthambore, or Ajmer. If returning to Delhi, the drive takes approximately 5–6 hours. Depending on your flight schedule, you may be dropped off at the airport or your hotel.
