Drive past Humayun's Tomb, the Mughal forerunner of the Taj Mahal, and drive past India Gate, a war memorial with gardens running along its length. Drive past Rashtrapati Bhawan (President's House) and Parliament House to observe contemporary Indian government at work.
Evening visit to Lotus Temple, which is famous for its peaceful ambiance and beautiful architecture, and then a stroll in the crowded streets of old Delhi's Chandni Chowk. You can choose to ride a rickshaw over Jama Masjid, one of India's largest mosques.
Overnight stay at Delhi.
Post breakfast, depart for Agra, the city of Taj Mahal and erstwhile capital of powerful Mughal Empire. Arrive in Agra, check-in to hotel and then set out for sightseeing.
Your first stop is the Taj Mahal, which is a white marble mausoleum that is well-known all over the world. Emperor Shah Jahan constructed the Taj Mahal as a memorial for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. The Taj Mahal is a World Heritage Site and a wonder of the Modern World's Seven Wonders. The Taj is the one that fascinates all the tourists with its beauty, symmetry, and romantic history.
Then proceed to the Agra Fort, another UN World Heritage site. Stroll along the Diwan-i-Aam (Hall of Public Audience), Diwan-i-Khas (Hall of Private Audience), and Jahangir's Palace, all behind high red sandstone walls.
Depending upon time available, watch sunset on the Taj Mahal from Mehtab Bagh, a river front garden along Yamuna.
Night stay at Agra.
After breakfast, check out from the hotel and head toward Jaipur, Rajasthan’s vibrant Pink City. En route, stop at Fatehpur Sikri, an abandoned Mughal capital built by Emperor Akbar. Explore the Buland Darwaza, Diwan-i-Khas, Panch Mahal, and Salim Chishti’s Dargah.
Proceed with your drive to Jaipur, the entrance to Rajasthan's royal heritage. Upon arrival, rest at your hotel.
Evening: There can be a visit to the nearby bazaar or enjoy a folk dance dinner show on request booked by Chetram Holidays. Jaipur bazaars are suitable for the purchase of handicrafts, gems, block-printed attire, and mojari traditional footwear.
Overnight at Jaipur.
Begin the day with a substantial breakfast and then proceed to explore Jaipur's wondrous monuments. Begin at Amber Fort situated on a hillside facing Maota Lake. Travel on elephant back or jeep to the entrance and delight in the Sheesh Mahal, Ganesh Pol, and stunning courtyards within.
Stop over on your return to the city at Jal Mahal, palace-half-submerged in a lake—perfect for pictures. Follow it up at the City Palace, royal antiques, the Rajput times' costumes and arms. At close proximity stands the Jantar Mantar, an 18th-century planetarium with the huge astronomical instruments, another one of the World Heritage Sites at UNESCO.
Finally, bask in the magnificence of Hawa Mahal (Wind Palace), an five-story gem with more than 900 filigree-windowed openings.
Post-sightseeing, you will be driven back to Delhi (around 5 hours) for your subsequent flight or dropped at Jaipur Railway Station/Jaipur Airport, depending on your travel itinerary.
