Tour Plan
01Day 1: Delhi to Agra – The Iconic Taj Mahal and Mughal Marvels
Your journey begins in Delhi, where you will be picked up early in the morning by your private driver. After a comfortable drive on the Yamuna Expressway, you will reach Agra, the city of love, in about three to four hours.
The first stop in Agra is the world-renowned Taj Mahal, an architectural wonder and one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, this white marble masterpiece is best admired in the soft morning light. Walking through its gardens and admiring the intricate carvings gives you a true sense of Mughal grandeur.
Next, you can head to the Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This red sandstone fortress once served as the residence of Mughal emperors and still holds palaces, courtyards, and towers that narrate stories of its glorious past. If time allows, you may also explore the Mehtab Bagh, a beautiful garden across the Yamuna River, offering breathtaking sunset views of the Taj Mahal.
In the afternoon, you will continue your journey towards Jaipur, also known as the Pink City. On the way, a stop at Fatehpur Sikri, the abandoned Mughal capital, adds more depth to your experience. By evening, you will arrive in Jaipur, where you can check into your hotel and relax. For those with energy left, a walk around Jaipur’s colourful markets offers a taste of Rajasthani culture before calling it a day.
02Day 2: Jaipur Sightseeing and Drive Back to Delhi
The second day of your Golden Triangle tour is dedicated to exploring Jaipur’s royal charm. After breakfast, you will set out to visit the majestic Amber Fort, located on the outskirts of the city. The fort, perched on a hill, is a stunning example of Rajput architecture with its courtyards, palaces, and ornate halls. The panoramic view from the fort overlooking Maota Lake is simply unforgettable.
Back in the city, your sightseeing continues with landmarks such as the Hawa Mahal, also called the Palace of Winds. This pink sandstone structure, with its honeycomb façade, was built for royal women to observe street festivals while staying unseen. Nearby, the City Palace offers a glimpse into Jaipur’s regal heritage, housing museums, courtyards, and grand halls. A short walk away is the Jantar Mantar, an astronomical observatory that reflects the scientific brilliance of ancient India.
For lunch, you can savour authentic Rajasthani cuisine at a traditional restaurant. Later in the afternoon, spend some time shopping in the local bazaars, where you can find handicrafts, jewellery, textiles, and souvenirs that make Jaipur famous.
By evening, your driver will take you back to Delhi, marking the end of your whirlwind 2-day Golden Triangle tour. Though short, this journey offers you a deep dive into India’s history, culture, and royal legacy.
