Golden Triangle Tour — 6 Nights / 7 Days
Tour Overview
The fullest telling of India’s classic story. Our Golden Triangle Tour over 6 nights and 7 days is the most complete version of the famous circuit — two unhurried nights in each of Delhi and Agra, the Taj Mahal at both sunset and sunrise, and the magnificent abandoned Mughal capital of Fatehpur Sikri on the road to Jaipur.
Across the week you’ll add Akshardham, Humayun’s Tomb, the Itimad-ud-Daulah (Baby Taj), mighty Agra Fort, the Abhaneri Stepwell and the palaces of the Pink City — all in a private air-conditioned car with an expert English-speaking guide, with airport transfers and a hotel of your chosen standard each night. It’s ideal for travellers who want to see North India properly, without ever feeling rushed.

Our driver meets you at Delhi International Airport, holding a placard with your name, and transfers you to your hotel. Check in and unwind, recovering from your journey and preparing for the week ahead.
Full day sightseeing in Old & New Delhi

In the evening, schedule permitting, head to the far bank of the Yamuna for a mesmerising sunset view of the Taj Mahal — a perfect, peaceful first encounter with the monument.

In the afternoon, visit the exquisite Itimad-ud-Daulah (Baby Taj) and its delicate Mughal-era inlay work, then return to your hotel for the evening.
Agra to Jaipur via Fatehpur Sikri
After breakfast and check-out, drive towards Jaipur, stopping to explore the historic Fatehpur Sikri, the beautifully preserved UNESCO-listed city built by Emperor Akbar — a fascinating glimpse into Mughal architecture and history.
Continue with a stop at the famous Abhaneri Stepwell (Chand Baori), one of the deepest and most stunning stepwells in India, before checking into your Jaipur hotel to relax.
A full day in Jaipur, the Pink City
After breakfast, explore the hilltop Amber Fort (optional elephant ride to the gates), the City Palace and the Jantar Mantar observatory, with photo stops at the Hawa Mahal and the lakeside Jal Mahal.
Spend time among Jaipur’s colourful bazaars — local arts, crafts and jewellery — before returning to your hotel to rest.
