Monuments & Devotion

Tour Overview

An 8-day journey across North India's classic Golden Triangle, extended east to Varanasi, one of the world's oldest living cities. Beginning among Delhi's Mughal forts and colonial boulevards, the route moves to Agra for a sunrise view of the Taj Mahal, into Jaipur's pink-walled palaces and hilltop forts, and finally to Varanasi's ancient ghats on the banks of the Ganges. Comfortable private transport, handpicked 4-star stays and a domestic flight connect every chapter of the route.

Highlights include Old and New Delhi's landmark monuments, sunrise at the Taj Mahal, the Amber Fort approached through Jaipur's Pink City, and an evening Ganga Aarti ceremony on the banks of the Ganges in Varanasi, followed by a sunrise boat ride past the sacred ghats.
