Golden Triangle & Rajasthan - Classic Tour

Physicality i
The journey involves city walking tours plus fort and palace visits with some steps and uneven surfaces, and full but unhurried sightseeing days, with no strenuous hikes or long treks.
Easy
Downtime i
Premium departures blend fuller experience days—like combined sightseeing plus evening activities—with scheduled pauses at the hotel, so there is still time for the pool, spa, or an unhurried drink before dinner.

An 11-day private journey that begins with India's Golden Triangle and then expands into Rajasthan. Delhi opens the route through Old and New Delhi contrasts. Agra anchors with the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort, supported by an evening cultural experience that explains the monument's story and symbolism. Jaipur follows with forts, stepwells, and craft neighbourhoods kept practical rather than performative. The pace then slows in Udaipur, where days stay close to Lake Pichola and the old city. Jodhpur closes Rajasthan through Mehrangarh Fort and the blue residential quarters below it, before a return to Delhi. Some drives are long, so arrival days stay light and heavier visits are spaced out. October to April offers the most comfortable conditions.
