Day 1’s itinerary includes the majestic Red Fort, Jama Masjid, Raj Ghat, and more. A shopping trip to the vibrant Chandni Chowk market is also planned.

Red Fort - This globally renowned citadel and UNESCO World Heritage Site was established in the 17th century. Surrounded by red stone walls, bastions, and gates, this massive monument is an architectural wonder. Located on the right bank of the Yamuna River, it was completed over nine years.

Friday Mosque (Jama Masjid) - The largest mosque in India, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a must-see and serves as the main mosque of Old Delhi.

Humayun’s Tomb - Built in 1570, this tomb holds cultural significance as the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, including the Taj Mahal.

Lotus Temple - Shaped like a half-open lotus floating among pools and gardens, this temple has no idols of any deity. It is the only Bahai house of worship in Asia.

Raj Ghat - This black marble platform marks the site of Mahatma Gandhi’s cremation on January 31, 1948, a day after his assassination.

Chandni Chowk - Known for its clothes, electronics, Indian spices, and street food.

Parliament House - The Sansad Bhavan houses the Parliament of India, including the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, and is located in New Delhi.

Qutub Minar - This 73-meter high minaret in Mehrauli was started by Qutb ud Din Aibak, founder of the Delhi Sultanate. It is famous for its artistic brickwork on the pillars and arches.

Delhi to Agra

Taj Mahal View Point - At the Taj Mahal Sunset View Point, you can admire the beauty of the Taj Mahal across the river, away from the crowds, during sunset.

Tomb of Itimad-ud-Daulah - Often described as a “jewel box” and sometimes called the “Baby Taj,” this two-story marble mausoleum is considered a draft of the Taj Mahal.

Agra Sightseeing Tour & Later Proceed to Jaipur (enroute visit Fatehpur Sikri & Chand Chand Bawri, Step Well)

Taj Mahal - This ivory-white marble mausoleum on the south bank of the Yamuna River in Agra was commissioned in 1632 by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan to house the tomb of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal.

Agra Fort - A historical fort in Agra, it was the main residence of the Mughal emperors until 1638, when the capital moved to Delhi. The Marathas were the last Indian rulers to occupy it before the British.

Fatehpur Sikri - Built in the late 16th century by Emperor Akbar, this city was the Mughal Empire’s capital for about 10 years. The complex includes one of India’s largest mosques, the Jama Masjid.

Chand Baori (Step well) - Located in the village of Abhaneri in Rajasthan, this stepwell extends approximately 30 meters into the ground, making it one of the deepest and largest in India.

Jaipur City Sightseeing Tour

Hawa Mahal - Palace of Wind - This five-story building resembles a honeycomb and is always windy inside due to its numerous windows and jharokhas. This excellent ventilation is why it is called the Hawa Mahal, or “Palace of the Winds.”

City Palace of Jaipur - A unique complex of courtyards, buildings, pavilions, gardens, and temples. The most notable structures are the Chandra Mahal, Mubarak Mahal, Shri Govind Dev Temple, and the City Palace Museum.

Jal Mahal - Built in the Rajputana architectural style, Jal Mahal offers a stunning view of the lake. Its separation from the land makes it a sight to behold from the Man Sagar Dam on the lake’s eastern side.

Amber Palace - A top tourist attraction in Jaipur, this extensive palace complex is built with pale yellow and pink sandstone and white marble. It sits atop a small hill about 11 km from the main city.

Panna Meena ka Kund - A historic stepwell and rainwater catchment known for its picturesque symmetrical stairways.

Recommended Private Tour Jaipur-Delhi-Agra-Jaipur - We were planning to use a lot of type transportations in India buat then after calculating budget and time frame, we decide to use private car which more comfortable and cheaper as we share the cost. Sameer bhaiya is the contact person and as we landed in Jaipur but start the trip from Delhi, Sameer and Shakir pick us up at late night in Jaipur Airport and drive us to Delhi on midnight. The car is new and very clean. The driver, Shakir bhaiya, is very kind and generous even though his english is very limited. Shakir was very capable to drive around Jaipur but in Delhi, he was a bit nervous as didnt know much about the city but he willing to ask and help, for us it was totally fine. This tour is very recommended! Bahut dhanyavaad Sameer bhaiya and Shakir bhaiya! Phira milanā 🙏
