Tour Duration - Minimum 07 Nights
Delhi
Delhi is one of India’s most vibrant cities. It is not only a city that has played capital to various dynasties, but is also one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Today, apart from being at the political forefront, it also leads the country in terms of art, culture, culinary experiences, shopping, entertainment and overall standard of living. The city, like other ancient cities, is a beautiful homogeneous mix of the old and the new.
Delhi is a microcosm of all that is India.
In Delhi you will get to experience the best of what Old and New Delhi have to offer including a couple of World Heritage Sites.
Agra :
Agra was the erstwhile capital of the Mughal Empire. Located in central India, on the banks of the Yamuna River, this city has always been very important in the country’s history. Today, it is known around the world as the home of the Taj Mahal. Unlike most other Indian cities, Agra has not grown into a large metropolis, but maintains its small-town status. It is replete with monuments and places of interest.
Though you would be staying for only 1 Night in Agra, given the proximity of Agra to Delhi, you will have plenty of time to explore The Agra Fort (Red Fort) and Taj Mahal.
In the morning of Day 04, we recommend one more visit to Taj Mahal at Sunrise to experience its beauty as the first rays of the sun hit the marble.
After Breakfast drive to
Ranthambore National Park
.
Ranthambore National Park
is one of the prime examples of Project Tiger’s conservation efforts in Rajasthan. The forests around the Ranthambore Fort were once the private hunting grounds of the Maharajas of Jaipur. The desire to preserve the game in these forests for sport was responsible for their conservation, and subsequent rescue by Project Tiger.
The Park sprawls over an estimated area of 400 sq. kms. Steep crags embrace a network of lakes and rivers, and on top of one of these hills, is the impressive Ranthambore Fort, built in the 10th century. The forest is the typically dry deciduous type, with dhok – Anogeissuslatifolia, being the most prominent tree.
Your arrival would be around late afternoon, and we recommend a minimum of 3 Safaris over the next 2 days, we are looking for Royal Bengal Tigers and Sloth Bears and if we are lucky even Leopards. (If you are serious about your Wildlife Experience then you should add another night here and 1 more Safari)
Today you will go on a Morning Safari Drive to the Park. Post Breakfast Drive to Jaipur. Built by Maharaja Jai Singh II (after whom it was named), Jaipur was India’s first planned city. Jaipur was built on the classical architectural principals of Shilpa Shastra. The city was divided into blocks and for the first time there was a segregation of residential and commercial areas.
The City Palace built at its heart covered almost a seventh of the area of the entire city. It is popularly known as Pink City, due to the hue of the buildings across the old town.
In Jaipur you will have time to explore the Bazaars, the Amber fort, the City Palace and the Astronomical Observatory.
The Tour ends and you have the option to either drive back to Delhi and depart India or you can extend your trip. This can be discussed during the Discovery call.
