Golden Triangle - Delhi - Agra - Prayagraj 3 Days Tour

Morning:
Your journey begins in Delhi, where you’ll wake up to the bustling energy of India’s capital. After breakfast at your hotel, we’ll start our exploration at the magnificent Red Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that served as the main residence of Mughal emperors for nearly 200 years. As you walk through its massive red sandstone walls, your guide will bring to life stories of royal processions, court intrigues, and the fort’s transformation through different historical periods. The intricate marble inlays and Persian-inspired architecture showcase the zenith of Mughal craftsmanship.

From here, we’ll take a short drive to Jama Masjid, India’s largest mosque. As you remove your shoes and step onto the cool marble courtyard, you’ll feel the spiritual serenity amidst the city’s chaos. Climb the southern minaret for a breathtaking panoramic view of Old Delhi’s labyrinthine streets. We’ll then embark on an exhilarating rickshaw ride through Chandni Chowk, where the scent of spices, the shouts of vendors, and the kaleidoscope of colors create an unforgettable sensory experience.

Afternoon:
After lunch at Karim’s, a legendary eatery serving Mughlai cuisine since 1913, we’ll visit Humayun’s Tomb. This magnificent garden tomb, often called the “dormitory of the Mughals,” represents a crucial architectural transition between the Timurid style and what would later evolve into the Taj Mahal’s design. The symmetrical gardens and water channels create a peaceful oasis in the heart of the city.

As the afternoon progresses, we’ll head to Qutub Minar, the world’s tallest brick minaret. Standing at its base, you’ll marvel at how this 12th-century tower has withstood earthquakes and the test of time. The surrounding archaeological complex, with its mix of Hindu and Islamic architectural elements, tells the story of India’s cultural synthesis.

Evening:

We’ll return to your hotel in the evening, giving you time to freshen up before dinner. For those interested, we can arrange an optional culinary walk through Connaught Place, where you can sample Delhi’s famous street food like golgappas and kebabs, or enjoy a fine dining experience at one of the city’s top restaurants.

Night:

Overnight stay in Delhi, with the option to experience the city’s vibrant nightlife or simply rest for the adventures ahead.
