Your Golden Triangle with Varanasi Tour at a Glance

Day 1Arrival in Delhi; Old Delhi and Mughal Landmarks

Arrive in Delhi and take time to settle in after your flight. Later, visit the Red Fort, the grand Mughal fortress and UNESCO World Heritage Site, followed by Jama Masjid, one of India’s largest mosques.
 
In the evening, explore Old Delhi on a rickshaw ride and heritage walk through its lively lanes. You may also enjoy a curated street-food walk, sampling local chaats, kebabs and traditional sweets.

Begin your Delhi sightseeing at Humayun’s Tomb, the elegant Mughal garden tomb that helped inspire the Taj Mahal. Continue to Qutub Minar and its historic 12th-century complex.
 
Drive past India Gate, Delhi’s war memorial, and continue to the serene Lotus Temple, admired for its distinctive flower-like design.

Day 3Delhi to Agra; Mughal Heritage and Taj Mahal at Sunset

Continue to Itmad-ud-Daula, often called the Baby Taj. Its delicate marble inlay and intimate scale offer a graceful contrast to Agra’s grander monuments.

Later, see the royal cenotaphs of Gatore Ki Chhatriyan and pause at Jal Mahal, the Water Palace set in Man Sagar Lake.
