Tour Overview
This 8-day tour covers the best of India's Golden Triangle and adds three days of tiger safaris at Ranthambore. You visit the Taj Mahal at sunrise, explore Agra Fort and Mehtab Bagh, and spend two days in Jaipur covering Amber Fort, City Palace, and the old bazaars.
From Jaipur the tour moves to Ranthambore for five exclusive jeep safaris. Ranthambore is one of India's most productive parks for tiger sightings. A medieval fort sits at the centre of the reserve, and tigers move through the ruins and along the lake edges on every drive.
- The Taj Mahal’s white marble glows beautifully at sunrise, creating a breathtaking and unforgettable sight.
- Ranthambore’s rugged terrain and ancient fort provide a dramatic backdrop for thrilling wildlife safaris.
- Jaipur’s bustling bazaars are filled with colorful textiles, handicrafts, and traditional Rajasthani jewelry.
- Fatehpur Sikri’s grand Mughal structures tell the fascinating story of a once-thriving royal city.
- A hot-air balloon ride over Jaipur offers panoramic views of historic forts, palaces, and the city’s vibrant streets.

01
Delhi
Delhi
The capital in transit - a first night to settle in before the road south.
1 Day · 1 City
02
Agra
Uttar Pradesh
Agra Fort's red sandstone by afternoon, the Taj Mahal at first light - the single most travelled sightline in the country, and still worth the crowds. Fatehpur Sikri on the way out, a Mughal capital abandoned to its own ambition.

Jaipur
Rajasthan
Hawa Mahal catching the morning sun, Amer Fort climbing its ridge above the city, the old bazaars doing brisk trade in between. Rajasthan's pink city, given two full days rather than a rushed one.
2 Day · 1 City

Ranthambore
Rajasthan
Dry deciduous forest closing in around a medieval fort — tigers move through the ruins and along the lake edges on nearly every drive, among the most cinematic settings for a sighting anywhere in India.
