India's Golden Triangle
The perfect introduction to India, this short trip focuses on the Golden Triangle of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. Explore the many interesting sights in this culturally rich pocket of the subcontinent from the narrow backstreets of old Delhi and the gleaming white Taj Mahal to the honey-coloured Amber Fort and brilliant pink Hawa Mahal.
Begin in Delhi with a stay at the homely Colonel’s Retreat. Explore the many sights of the city with your knowledgeable guide. Highlights will include Qutb Minar, Humayun’s Tomb and the Jama Masjid. Move on to Agra where you will focus on the magnificent Taj Mahal. Visit at sunrise and sunset – the two best times of day – to admire this romantic building. Be sure to go up close to see the intricacy of the carvings on the marble. The historic city of Jaipur is next. Discover the Amber Fort and explore the old pink city. Your guide will also show you the city palace and intricate Hawa Mahal, as well as the curious Jantar Mantar observatory. End back in Delhi armed with plenty of stories for friends and family back home.
