Tour Plan
- 9:00 AM: Pickup from your desired location in Delhi, whether it be the airport, railway station, hotel, or another meeting point. Begin your half-day city tour of Delhi.
- Visit the Qutub Minar, an 11th-century tower built by Qutub-ud-din Aibek of the Slave Dynasty, which stands at a height of 72.5 meters and is adorned with intricate carvings and verses from the Qur’an.
- Explore the India Gate, a memorial honoring around 90,000 Indian army soldiers who died in World War I, the Northwest Frontier operations, and the 1919 Anglo-Afghan War.
- Drive past Parliament House (Sansad Bhavan), which houses the two houses of the Indian Parliament, Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. You'll also see the grand government buildings, including the President’s House, all dating back to the British Raj.
- In the early evening, transfer to Agra, approximately a 3-hour drive via expressway.
- 6:00 AM: Early morning pickup for a visit to the Taj Mahal at sunrise. This UNESCO World Heritage Site, known as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, is the ultimate expression of love. Built by Shah Jahan as a memorial for his beloved wife, it features exquisite white marble and semi-precious stones. (Note: The Taj Mahal is closed on Fridays.)
- After visiting the Taj Mahal, enjoy breakfast before exploring the Agra Fort, another UNESCO World Heritage Site. This imposing red sandstone fortress houses the Mughal rulers’ imperial city, including stunning palaces like Jahangir Palace and Khas Mahal, as well as beautiful mosques.
- Enjoy a shopping tour in Agra, where you can explore local handicrafts, including marble inlay work, fine carpets, jewelry, embroidery, brassware, leather goods, and more.
- After your Agra city tour, embark on a 4-hour drive to Jaipur, the old walled city founded by Maharaja Jai Singh II. Known as the ‘Pink City,’ Jaipur is meticulously constructed based on the Shilpa-Shastra, an ancient Hindu treatise on architecture. You’ll also have the option to stop at Fatehpur Sikri (at your own expense), a perfectly preserved ghost town built by Akbar in the late 16th century.
- After breakfast, check out and visit the Amber Fort, located on a ridge outside Jaipur. The fort is beautifully reflected in the lake below, and you’ll see the famous Jai Mandir temple with its dazzling Sheesh Mahal, where mirrors adorn the walls and ceiling, creating a mesmerizing effect.
- Make a photo stop at Jal Mahal, the Rajput-style “Water Palace” situated in the center of Man Sagar Lake, around 11:00 AM. The lake often dries up in summer but transforms into a beautiful water-filled area during the winter monsoons.
- Next, visit the Hawa Mahal, known as the Palace of the Winds, for more photo opportunities. This five-story pink sandstone structure, built in 1799 A.D., features semi-octagonal, delicately honeycombed windows.
- After lunch, proceed to the City Palace and Jantar Mantar, located in the heart of the old city. The City Palace was once the royal residence of the King of Jaipur, showcasing a blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architectural styles with intricately crafted columns and carved arches. Jantar Mantar is an 18th-century stone observatory.
- If time permits, enjoy some shopping in Jaipur, where you’ll find a wide variety of goods, including gemstones, silver jewelry, bangles, textiles, and blue pottery.
- In the evening, embark on a 4-hour drive back to Delhi, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel or another location of your choice.
