Discover the Golden Triangle

Tourism in India has been expanding rapidly, and the favorable exchange rate makes it even more attractive. Beyond the cost, what truly makes India exceptional is its combination of awe-inspiring, thought-provoking, thrilling, surprising, emotional, and stunningly beautiful sights.

While it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, it’s just as easy to fall in love with the country. In fact, many visitors experience both emotions within just a few days, and this blend of contrasts is what makes a trip to India such a unique and memorable experience.

India 101
For first-time visitors to India, the Golden Triangle Tour is the ideal way to kick off your journey. While it may not be an off-the-beaten-path experience, it provides a perfect introduction to the country’s rich history, culture, and blend of ancient and modern lifestyles. The tour takes you through three major destinations: Delhi, the capital city; Agra, home to the magnificent Taj Mahal; and Jaipur, famous for its forts and palaces. From Rajasthan’s regal splendor to the vibrant markets of Delhi, this tour offers a collection of unforgettable sights and experiences.

Delhi

Capital of the great Mughal empire and the British, home to more than 25 million people, city of djinns, Delhi is to the Indian subcontinent what Rome is to Europe. Full of relics dating back centuries, Delhi is perhaps the best place to discover ancient, medieval and modern India in the same breath. Glitzy malls, magnificent nightclubs, trendy breweries and exotic restaurants show how the new generation loves to spend its time, while medieval fortifications, dusty bazaars and colonial wonders and Mughal mausoleums introduce you to the Delhi of yesterday, a city without equal. The main highlights of your stay in Delhi shall include architectural wonders such as India Gate, Qutub Minar and President House, Mughal mausoleums such as Humayun Tomb, the ancient bazaars of Old Delhi and Lotus Temple, a magnificent temple that has been styled after the lotus and features 27 breathtaking white-marble petals.

Jaipur

The next step of your journey takes you to the Pink City, Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. And who hasn’t heard of Rajasthan! Home to some of the most beautiful and alluring forts and palaces on the planet, Rajasthan is one of those must-dos, something you must experience at least once in your lifetime. The chaotic street scenes perfectly mix the old and the new, and leisurely cycle-rickshaw rides let you explore those various neighborhoods in an entirely new light. It often leaves you overwhelmed and frustrated, but in the midst of all this chaos, wonders from a bygone era come into view to evoke a sense of calm and transport you to a different world. While in Jaipur, you will be able to check out architectural gems such as the Amer Fort, City Palace, Hawa Mahal and Jantar Mantar and also enjoy adventures such as elephant rides and shopping.

Agra

Centuries ago, Agra was considered to be one of the most powerful cities in India. It was around that time when many of the wonders you see today were created. Although home to a number of architectural gems such as the semi-circular Agra fort and the red sandstone Fatehpur Sikri, the first thing which comes to mind when you think of Agra is the magical Taj Mahal, a part of the Big 7, an attraction that seems to have different colors at different parts of the day. Considered to be a legacy of the Mughal Empire and an embodiment of true love, the Taj is where you see countless love stories come alive.
