Your tour begins in Delhi with a thrilling rickshaw ride through Old Delhi’s labyrinth of streets and ancient temples, passing the UNESCO listed Humayun’s Tomb and the imposing Red Fort before exploring the wide avenues and colonial-era buildings of New Delhi. Continue onto the Mahatma Gandhi memorial and the 12th century Qutab Minar. Journey onward to nearby Agra and wander through the grounds of the impressive Agra Fort. Next, witness the minarets and gleaming dome of the magnificent Taj Mahal. Taking 17 years and 20,000 men to build, this ivory-white mausoleum was commissioned by grief-stricken Emperor Shah Jajan to hold the remains of his beloved third wife. Stopping next in Ranthambore, set out on a safari by canter through the national park as you look out for native wildlife, including the elusive Bengal Tiger. The ‘Pink City’ of Jaipur offers a treasure trove of sights, including the earth-toned buildings for which it is named. Explore the City Palace, the observatory of Jantar Mantar and Hawa Mahal, whose 953 windows once shielded the faces of royal ladies so they could observe street processions unseen.
