Duration: 4 Nights / 5 Days
Places to Visit: Delhi - Agra - Jaipur - Delhi
Day One Delhi
Arrival at Delhi
Company representatives will receive you on arrival at the international airport
in Delhi late in the night or midnight. Transfer to your hotel. Relax.
DELHI, the capital of kingdoms and empires is now a sprawling metropolis with
a fascinating blend of the past and the present. It is a perfect introduction
to the composite culture of an ancient land. A window to the kaleidoscope -
that is India.
Overnight will be at Delhi.
Day Two Delhi - Agra
Start a full-day tour of Old and New Delhi after breakfast.
OLD DELHI - A sightseeing tour of Old Delhi would entail visiting the Raj Ghat
- the memorial site where Mahatma Gandhi was cremated; Jama Masjid - the largest
mosque in India and the Red Fort - once the most opulent fort and palace of
the Moghul Empire.
Enjoy the cycle rickshaw ride from Jama Masjid to Chandni Chowk.
NEW DELHI - An extensive sightseeing tour of New Delhi would include a visit
to the Humayun’s Tomb, the Qutub Minar, a drive along the ceremonial avenue
- Rajpath, past the imposing India Gate, Parliament House, the President’s
Residence, Lotus Temple and would end with a drive through the Diplomatic Enclave.
Start for Agra and reach by early evening.
Day Three Agra - Mathura - Vrindavan - Agra
Two great Mughal monarchs, Akbar and Shah Jahan, transformed the little village
of Agra into a befitting second capital of the Mughal Empire - giving it the
name Dar-ul-Khilafat (seat of the Emperor). Today a visitor to Agra is caught
up in a world of contrasting edifices, of red sandstone and white marble, narrow
galleys and quaint buggies, and that irresistible charm that this favorite city
of the Mughals still retains. It is not surprising, that modern Agra still reflects
its Mughal heritage most conspicuously. A walk down the narrow bustling streets
of the city will introduce the visitor to the wafting aroma of Mughlai cuisine.
Little needs to be said about this architectural wonder which is always the
soul raison-de-etre for every tourist's visit to Agra. Built by Shah Jahan,
the Taj is a white marble memorial to his beautiful wife Mumtaz Mahal. This
monument took 22 years to be completed and was designed, and planned by Persian
architect Ustad Isa. Apart from its stunning design balance and perfect symmetry,
the Taj is also noted particularly for its elegant domes, intricately carved
screens and some of the best inlay work ever seen.
Proceed for visit to the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort.
Drive to Mathura and Vrindavan after lunch.
Visit the Krishna janambhoomki at Mathura and proceed towards Vrindavan.
Upon arrival witness the evening aarti at Vrindavan
Day Four Agra - Jaipur
Drive to Fatehpur Sikri after breakfast
The deserted, red Sandstone City, Emperor Akbar built that as his capital and
palace in the late 16th century is an exhilarating experience. It a veritable
fairytale city and its "ruins" are in pristine condition... it's not
hard to imagine what the court life must have been like in the days of its grandeur.
Also visit the Bulund Darwaza, the largest gateway in the world.
Upon arrival in Jaipur check in at the hotel.
In the afternoon visit the observatory and the City Palace. A delightful blend
of Mughal and traditional Rajasthani architecture, the City Palace sprawls over
one-seventh of the area in the walled city. It houses the Chandra Mahal, Shri
Govind Dev Temple and the City Palace Museum.
The largest and the best preserved of the five observatories built by Jai Singh
II in different parts of the country. This observatory consisting of outsized
astronomical instruments is still in use.
The ornamental facade of this "Palace of Winds" is a prominent landmark
in Jaipur. It is a five-storey structure of sandstone plastered pink encrusted
with fine trelliswork and elaborate balconies. The palace has 953 niches and
windows. Built in 1799 by Pratap Singh, the Mahal was a royal grandstand for
the palace women.
Day Five Jaipur - Delhi
Proceed for a morning excursion to Amber Fort after breakfast. Elephant ride
ascent to the fort.
Amber is the classic romantic Rajasthani fort palace. Its construction was started
by Man Singh I in 1592, and completed by his descendent Jai Singh I. Its forbidding
exterior belies an inner paradise where a beautiful fusion of Mughal and Hindu
styles finds its ultimate expression.
