Overview
India's most iconic destinations come together in this six-day private journey through the Golden Triangle and the spiritual heart of Varanasi. Your adventure begins in Delhi, where Mughal grandeur meets the organised chaos of Old Delhi's spice-scented lanes. From there, your private AC car takes you south to Agra — home to the Taj Mahal, a monument that genuinely stops you mid-sentence at first sight, especially in the soft light of early morning.
The road from Agra to Jaipur winds through the Rajasthani countryside, arriving at the Pink City where warrior forts and ornate palaces tell stories of Rajput pride. Amber Fort's mirror-work halls, the honeycomb facade of Hawa Mahal, and the living royal heritage of City Palace make Jaipur one of India's most photogenic cities. A short flight then whisks you to Varanasi — the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world, where the evening Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat is an experience no amount of reading can prepare you for.
Two nights in Varanasi give you time to absorb the city's layered spirituality at your own pace. A sunrise boat ride on the Ganges reveals the ghats waking up — from morning yoga and washing rituals to the smoke curling from Manikarnika's funeral pyres. A day trip to Sarnath, where the Buddha delivered his first sermon, rounds out this journey beautifully. Throughout, your personal guide handles all logistics while you focus on the moments that matter. The itinerary is flexible — skip a stop, linger longer, or add a detour. This is your trip.
