Perfect for: First‑time visitors to India, couples, families and small groups who want a classic introduction to North India with an extra Rajasthan experience in Udaipur, feel free to contact us.
On arrival at Delhi airport or railway station, you will be greeted by our representative and your private driver, who will assist you with your luggage and transfer you to the hotel. After check-in, take some time to rest and recover from your journey.
Depending on your arrival time and energy level, you can either relax at the hotel or enjoy a light introductory drive around New Delhi. This is a good way to get a feel for the city without rushing straight into a full sightseeing day.
This first evening is intentionally kept flexible so that you can adjust to the time zone and climate. Your driver will be available if you wish to go out for dinner at a nearby restaurant, or you can dine at the hotel and rest.
After breakfast, you begin a full day exploring both Old Delhi and New Delhi with a local English-speaking guide. This day helps you understand the layers of history that have shaped India’s capital over many centuries.
In Old Delhi, once the Mughal capital of Shahjahanabad, narrow lanes, bustling bazaars and old havelis give a glimpse into traditional city life.
Later, you move into New Delhi, with its wider roads, parks and grand government buildings.
At the end of the day, your driver will take you back to the hotel. If you still have energy, you can explore a local market or try a traditional North Indian dinner.
This morning, check out after breakfast and drive to Agra via the modern expressway, which offers a smoother and faster journey compared to older routes. You will see the landscape gradually change from urban Delhi to small towns and fields along the way.
On arrival in Agra, check into your hotel and take a short break. In the afternoon, you meet your local guide for a first look at the Mughal city.
During the evening, you can stroll in a local market, visit a marble inlay workshop to learn how the intricate pietra dura work of the Taj Mahal is created, or simply rest at the hotel to be fresh for the next day’s sunrise visit.
Today is often the most memorable morning of the trip. Before sunrise, your driver will take you to the Taj Mahal, where you meet your guide and join the early visitors entering the complex.
Seeing the Taj Mahal in the soft pink and golden light of dawn, before the heat and larger crowds of the day, is a truly special experience. Your guide will explain the love story of Emperor Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal, the architectural symbolism of the monument, and the intricate marble work and calligraphy that decorate it.
After spending ample time inside the complex, you return to the hotel for breakfast and check-out. Then you begin the drive towards Jaipur, with an important stop on the way:
Continue by road through the Rajasthan countryside towards Jaipur, passing through small towns, roadside markets and agricultural land. Short tea or snack breaks can be taken along the way as you prefer.
Arrive in Jaipur by late afternoon or early evening and check into your hotel. The rest of the evening is at leisure.
Jaipur, the Pink City, is known for its impressive forts and palaces, as well as its vibrant markets and royal heritage. After breakfast, meet your local guide and head out for a full day of sightseeing.
Back in the city, continue your exploration:
Later, you have time to explore Jaipur’s markets for textiles, jewellery, handicrafts and spices, or to relax in a café. Your driver can recommend reliable shops if you are interested in specific items.
After breakfast, check out and start your journey to Udaipur, often called the “City of Lakes” and one of India’s most romantic destinations. The drive takes you through rural Rajasthan with views of villages, fields and the Aravalli hills.
There is flexibility to stop along the way for tea, photos or lunch. In some itineraries, guests choose to add a brief stop at local temples or small towns en-route; this can be discussed with your driver based on your interests and timings.
On arrival in Udaipur, check in at your hotel. The rest of the day is free to relax after the long drive. If you wish, you can take a gentle evening walk around the old city lanes, visit a lakeside café, or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere from your hotel terrace.
After breakfast, meet your local guide for a full-day exploration of Udaipur. This charming city, surrounded by hills and lakes, has a softer, more relaxed feel than many larger Indian cities.
In the afternoon, you have some free time to wander the old streets, browse for miniature paintings and handicrafts, or relax at a café overlooking the lake. Udaipur is also known for evening cultural shows featuring traditional Rajasthani music, dance and puppetry, which can be arranged on request.
Towards sunset, enjoy a shared boat ride on Lake Pichola (subject to water level and weather). From the water, you get lovely views of the City Palace, lakeside havelis and island palaces, making it a perfect way to close your Rajasthan journey.
After breakfast, free time until check-out. Depending on your flight or onward travel schedule, you may have a little time for last-minute shopping or a final walk by the lake.
Your driver will then transfer you to Udaipur airport for your flight, or arrange a drive / further connections to Delhi or another city as per your customised plan.
Your 8-day journey through Delhi, Agra, Jaipur and Udaipur ends with rich memories of India’s history, architecture, culture and hospitality.
