Golden Triangle Tours — Delhi, Agra and Jaipur Tour Packages
The Golden Triangle — Delhi, Agra and Jaipur — is India's classic first-time itinerary, and for good reason: three of the country's most distinctive cities within a manageable driving loop, covering the Mughal capital, the Taj Mahal, and Rajasthan's Pink City in one trip.
The tours below run from a two-day Agra-and-Jaipur dash up to an eight-day circuit that adds Khajuraho and Orchha. All of them are private, with your own car and guide for the whole route rather than a fixed-departure coach.

The classic Delhi–Agra–Jaipur route
The standard loop runs Delhi to Agra (Taj Mahal, Agra Fort) to Jaipur (Amber Fort, City Palace, Hawa Mahal) and back to Delhi, usually via Fatehpur Sikri on the Agra–Jaipur leg. Three days is enough to hit all three cities without lingering; five or six days gives each city proper time instead of a single rushed afternoon.

Luxury option
Same three-city route, upgraded throughout: 5-star hotels, a chauffeur-driven sedan rather than a standard tourist vehicle, and private guides with skip-the-line entry timed to avoid the worst of the crowds.
Extensions beyond the triangle
Four routes add a fourth stop onto the classic loop: Ranthambore for a tiger safari, Varanasi for the Ganges ghats and evening aarti, Amritsar for the Golden Temple and the Wagah border ceremony, or Khajuraho and Orchha for their temple architecture. Each roughly doubles the trip length in exchange for a genuinely different experience from the core three cities.
How many days do you need?
Two days covers Agra and Jaipur only, skipping Delhi sightseeing — a fit for travellers with limited time who are already passing through Delhi. Three days is the minimum for all three cities. Five to six days removes the rush. Seven-plus days means you're adding an extension city, not just slowing down the core three.
What is included
A private air-conditioned car for the whole route, an English-speaking guide, and hotel pickup and drop-off are standard across every tour here. Hotel category, meals and monument entry differ by tour and by trip length — check the included/excluded list on each tour page, and compare it against the luxury option above if 5-star accommodation matters to you.
Best time to travel
October through March, for the same reason it's the right window for Rajasthan generally: daytime temperatures that make walking around Amber Fort or standing in the Taj Mahal's queue tolerable, rather than the 40°C-plus heat of an April-to-June trip.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Golden Triangle tour?
A tour covering Delhi, Agra and Jaipur — three cities that form a rough triangle on the map, each around 4-6 hours' drive from the next. It's the most common first-time itinerary for visitors to northern India, combining the capital, the Taj Mahal, and Rajasthan's Pink City in one loop.
How many days should I spend on a Golden Triangle tour?
Three days is the minimum to see all three cities without skipping their major sights. Five to six days is more comfortable and lets you add a stop like Fatehpur Sikri without rushing. Extensions to Ranthambore, Varanasi, Amritsar or Khajuraho typically add three to five more days.
Is the Golden Triangle tour worth it for a first visit to India?
For most first-time visitors, yes — it's the itinerary that packs in the most globally recognisable sights (the Taj Mahal chief among them) in the least amount of ground covered, without the longer travel days that Rajasthan's western cities or South India would add.
Can I add Ranthambore or another extension partway through, once the trip has started?
It's easier to confirm the full itinerary before you arrive, since hotels and the tiger safari permits at Ranthambore are booked in advance. If your plans are still open, message us on WhatsApp and we'll help you decide before booking rather than after.
