Meet our representative upon arrival in Delhi
and check-in at the hotel. India's capital & a
major gateway to the country, Delhi is
contemporary and a bustling metropolis which
successfully combines in its fold the ancient & the modern. Its strategic location was one of the prime reasons why
successive dynasties chose it as their seat of power. New Delhi also reflects the legacy the British left behind. Overnight in
Delhi.
After breakfast, proceed for a full-day tour of Old and New Delhi. This fascinating city has been in existence since the 6th
century BC and has seen ups and downs from the rule of the Pandavas right up to the British Raj. Visit Jama Masjid, which
is the largest mosque in India, commissioned by Emperor Shah Jahan. The courtyard of the mosque can hold about 25,000
worshippers. Enjoy a rickshaw ride in Chandni Chowk, the busiest market in Old Delhi…noisy, chaotic and uniquely Indian.
You will then visit the Red Fort, which was constructed during the rule of Emperor Shah Jahan and served as the residence
for the Mughal royal family. It continues to be significant till date, as every Independence Day, the Prime Minister makes a
speech from its ramparts as the Indian flag is hoisted. Later, drive past President House and several other government
buildings in Edwin Lutyen’s Delhi before you head toward Rajghat, the memorial to Mahatma Gandhi. This simple memorial

On arrival in Agra, check-in into your Hotel. Later proceed for Half Day City Tour of Agra. Visit the Red Fort, which was
commissioned in 1565 by Akbar. The beautiful yet forbidding structure is a handsome example of Mughal architecture.

Mumtaz Mahal. Considered an architectural marvel, its construction took thousands of workers over 21 years to complete.
Overnight in Agra.
After breakfast, drive to Jaipur and enroute Visit Fatehpur Sikri, which was built by Emperor Akbar and is home to many
historical buildings. Akbar wanted to make Fatehpur Sikri his headquarters; however, he had to abandon it due to shortage

Prominent structures inside the fort are the Diwan-i- Aam, adorned with latticed galleries, the Ganesh Pol, with a beautiful
painted image of Lord Ganesh, and the stunning Sheesh Mahal, a hall decorated with thousands of tiny mirrors. Later, stop
to photograph the beautiful Hawa Mahal, also known as the “Palace of the Winds.†This beautiful façade with its ornately
