In the afternoon, head south to admire Qutub Minar, the world’s tallest brick minaret and a masterpiece of Indo-Islamic architecture. Continue on to New Delhi, where broad boulevards and stately buildings reflect the grandeur of the British Raj. Highlights include the Presidential Palace, the imposing Secretariat buildings, and the historic India Gate. Conclude the day with a visit to the stunning Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, easily recognized by its shimmering golden dome and spiritual ambiance.

After breakfast at the hotel, transfer to Delhi airport for your flight to Jodhpur. Upon arrival, you'll be met and transferred to your hotel for check-in. Jodhpur, the capital of the historic kingdom of Marwar, is famously known as the "Blue City" for the vivid indigo hue of its old town houses, creating a mesmerizing contrast against the golden desert backdrop.
In the afternoon, set off on a guided city tour. Begin with a visit to Jaswant Thada, an elegant marble cenotaph built in 1899 by Maharaja Sardar Singh in memory of his father, Jaswant Singh II. This peaceful site is known for its delicate carvings and serene lakefront setting.
Next, ascend to the mighty Mehrangarh Fort, one of the largest and most impressive forts in India. Perched on a rocky hilltop, the fort was founded by Rao Jodha in 1459 and offers panoramic views over the blue-hued city below. Within its massive walls lies a museum showcasing exquisite artifacts, from royal palanquins and costumes to intricate miniature paintings and antique weaponry.
After your visit, enjoy some free time to wander the atmospheric streets of Jodhpur, soak in the daily life, and perhaps browse local bazaars for handicrafts and spices.
Overnight stay in Jodhpur.
After breakfast at the hotel, begin your scenic journey by road to Udaipur, often called the “City of Lakes.” En route, stop to visit the awe-inspiring Jain temple complex of Ranakpur, one of the most remarkable temples in India. Built in the 15th century, this architectural masterpiece is famed for its intricate marble work and its 1,400 individually-carved pillars—no two alike. Admire the delicate motifs, sculpted deities, and the serene atmosphere of this sacred space.
Following the visit, continue your drive through the picturesque Aravalli Hills toward Udaipur. Upon arrival, transfer to your hotel and check in. Enjoy the remainder of the day at leisure, soaking in the romantic ambiance of this lakeside city.
Overnight stay in Udaipur.
After breakfast at the hotel, begin your day exploring the romantic “City of Lakes.” Your first stop is the magnificent City Palace, perched on a hill with sweeping views over Udaipur and its shimmering waters. This sprawling complex is a striking fusion of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture, adorned with balconies, domes, and intricately decorated walls featuring crystal and tile inlays. Inside, you'll discover a museum housing a fascinating collection of glassworks, ceramics, and miniature paintings.
Continue to the Jagdish Temple, an architectural gem built in 1651 by Maharana Jagat Singh. It enshrines a striking black stone idol of Lord Vishnu and is guarded by a captivating statue of Garuda, his divine mount, at the entrance. Then, take a peaceful stroll through Saheliyon Ki Bari, or the Garden of the Maidens—an enchanting retreat with lotus pools, ornate fountains, and stone elephants nestled among lush greenery.
Enjoy some free time to wander through Udaipur’s vibrant markets and quaint lanes, perfect for soaking up the city’s charm and picking up local handicrafts.
In the afternoon, set out on a serene boat ride on Lake Pichola. This tranquil lake, framed by hills and historic structures, offers stunning views of the City Palace and two island palaces—Jag Mandir, with its grand marble domes and garden courtyards, and Jag Niwas, now the luxurious Lake Palace Hotel. Drift through the calm waters as the sun casts a golden glow over the cityscape.
Overnight stay in Udaipur.
Enjoy breakfast at the hotel before transferring to Udaipur airport for your flight to Jaipur, the vibrant capital of Rajasthan. Upon arrival, head straight to the beautiful Birla Mandir, a modern yet striking Hindu temple built in 1988. Crafted entirely from white marble, the temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi and stands out for its serene atmosphere and elegant architecture, making it a peaceful contrast to the city’s buzz.
Following the temple visit, transfer to your hotel for check-in. The remainder of the evening is yours to relax or explore Jaipur at your own pace. Overnight stay in Jaipur.
After breakfast at the hotel, dive into a full day of discovery in Jaipur, the Pink City. Start your morning with a shared jeep ride through the grand entrance of the former royal residence. Enjoy sweeping views of the Amber Fort and the shimmering Lake Maota, where ornate palaces and richly decorated pavilions reflect centuries of Rajput grandeur.
Back in Jaipur, stop to photograph the picturesque Jal Mahal, a palace that appears to float gracefully on the Man Sagar Lake. Continue to the Jantar Mantar, the largest of the five observatories built by Maharaja Jai Singh, where stone and marble instruments were engineered to track celestial movements with remarkable accuracy. Pause at the iconic Hawa Mahal, or Palace of the Winds, famous for its intricate façade designed to allow royal women to observe street life unseen.
In the afternoon, step into the regal City Palace complex—an architectural fusion of Rajput, Mughal, and European styles that once served as the residence of Jaipur’s maharajas. While there, you’ll have the chance to try your hand at traditional crafts: learn to tie a Rajasthani turban or sari and get adorned with intricate henna designs.
Later, enjoy some free time to browse the colorful bazaars brimming with local crafts, jewelry, and textiles. For an enriching cultural finale, consider an optional culinary experience—join a local Jaipur family for an evening of cooking and shared stories over a delicious home-cooked meal.
Overnight stay in Jaipur.
After breakfast at the hotel, it's time to hit the road toward Agra, a journey filled with fascinating stops along the way.
Your first stop is the remarkable Chand Baori, one of India's hidden architectural gems. Built over a thousand years ago by King Chand, this awe-inspiring stepwell served as an ancient water storage system. Shaped like an inverted pyramid, it plunges 20 meters deep with a stunning geometric design of 3,500 precisely carved steps—making it not only one of the largest but also one of the most beautiful stepwells in the world.
Next, explore the hauntingly well-preserved ghost city of Fatehpur Sikri. Once the Mughal Empire’s capital under Emperor Akbar, the city was abandoned due to water shortages but remains a testament to Mughal grandeur. Walk through its historic highlights, including the Diwan-I-Am (Hall of Public Audience), Diwan-I-Khas (Hall of Private Audience), Jodhabai’s Palace, Birbal’s House, Marian’s House, and the five-story Panchmahal—all exquisite examples of imperial architecture and design.
After the visit, continue onward to Agra. Upon arrival, transfer to your hotel and enjoy the rest of the evening at your leisure.
Overnight stay in Agra.
Before sunrise, set off to witness the breathtaking beauty of the Taj Mahal at first light. This iconic monument—crafted from the purest white marble—was commissioned by Sultan Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. Designed by Persian architect Ustad Isa and completed over 22 years, the Taj is renowned for its perfect symmetry, graceful domes, intricate marble inlays, and finely-carved latticework. As the early morning light washes over the monument, watch the marble shift in colour—a truly unforgettable sight. It’s no wonder this masterpiece holds the distinction of being a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Return to the hotel for breakfast.
Later, visit the imposing Agra Fort, a red sandstone fortress built by Emperor Akbar between 1565 and 1573. Blending formidable defensive design with the elegance of Mughal architecture, the fort also contains beautiful marble structures and royal halls. From its walls, enjoy a view of the Taj Mahal—just as Shah Jahan did during his final years, imprisoned by his own son, Aurangzeb.
After the visit, journey back to Delhi by road. Upon arrival, transfer to the hotel and enjoy your evening at leisure.
