India's Golden Triangle: Delhi, Agra & Jaipur — 4 Days
Mughal monuments and royal palaces across three cities: Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, with sunrise at the Taj Mahal
The Golden Triangle route connects three of India's primary historical centres over four days. Delhi holds Mughal-era tombs and ancient archaeological sites; Agra contains the Taj Mahal and the fortress palaces of the Mughal court; Jaipur is known as the Pink City. The itinerary includes a sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal, a stop at Fatehpur Sikri—the 16th-century capital of Akbar—and guided tours of major monuments in each city. Private transfers by air-conditioned car connect the three destinations, with local English-speaking guides at each stop.
