Places : Delhi - Jaipur - Agra - Varanasi - Delhi
Duration : 0 8 Nights / 09 Days
Day 01 - Arrive Delhi, India 
You'll arrive in Delhi and be transferred to the pre-booked hotel. You
have the rest of the evening free to relax or to begin to explore Delhi on
your own. Overnight at hotel.
Day 02 - Delhi
The best place to begin your exploration of Delhi is in the old section
of the city. Your full day city tour starts from the Red Fort -the most
opulent palace of the Mughal Empire. The fort's Lahore Gate faces the
colorful, bustling market of Chandni Chowk. You'll see Raj Ghat, the
simple square platform of black marble that marks the place where Mahatma
Gandhi was cremated. After lunch the tour continues through New Delhi,
which was designed and built by King George V's architects as an "Imperial
City." You'll begin at Delhi's main avenue, the Rajpath, then you'll
see the India Gate and the imposing Presidential Palace before stopping to
visit Qutab Minar and Emperor Humayun's Tomb. Overnight at hotel.

Day 03 - Travel to Jaipur
Today you'll head to Jaipur (252 kms / 5 hrs.), Rajasthan's Pink City.
Following an afternoon arrival, the rest of the day is free to explore the
old bazaars of the city.
Day 04 - Explore Jaipur
This morning's excursion takes us just north of Jaipur to the Amber Fort.
We'll approach the fort in the traditional way: riding on elegantly
caparisoned elephants. The high gateways allow us to enter on these
broad-backed animals. The afternoon is spent touring the city of Jaipur,
with visits to the astonishingly accurate observatory of Maharajah Jai
Singh, built in 1727, the elaborate Palace of the Winds, and the art-
filled City Palace. Overnight at hotel.
Day 05 - Travel to Agra
As you drive to Agra (232 kms / 5 hrs.), you'll see women dressed in
brilliant saris, as well as camels, elephants and scenes of rural life.
We'll stop at the perfectly preserved, red sandstone "ghost town"
of Fatehpur Sikri. This fairy tale city and its remaining buildings and
artifacts are still in pristine condition, making it easy to imagine what
the court life must have been like in the days of its heyday. Overnight at
hotel.
Day 06 - Agra - Varanasi
After breakfast you'll have a chance to experience for yourself one of
the most majestic and recognizable structures in the world. The
magnificent Taj Mahal, built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his
beloved queen, took 20,000 craftsmen over 18 years to complete. We'll also
visit the Agra Fort and drive through Agra's local markets. Late evening
transfer to Railway Station to connect Train to Varanasi ( Holy City)
Overnight on board.

Day 07 - Arrive Varanasi
Morning
arrive at Varanasi (also known as Benares), one of the oldest cities in
the world and the center of the Hindu faith. This afternoon see that this
area holds a special place for Buddhist devotees as well. Just south of
Varanasi you will visit Sarnath, which is said to be the actual spot where
Buddha delivered his first sermon. Visit Sarnath's excellent
archaeological museum, which displays the capital of the Ashoka Pillar: a
circle of back- to- back lions that has become the state symbol of the
modern Indian Republic. In the evening you can take an optical visit back
to the river where you can witness the magnificence of the evening prayers
from a boat. Overnight at hotel.
Day 08 - Varanasi - board train to Delhi
Varanasi is the religious centre of the Hindu religion. Situated on the
banks of the holy river Ganges, it is a unique city that some say vibrates
with cosmic forces beyond comprehension. At dawn, you'll enjoy a boat ride
on the Ganges River where you'll see thousands of devout Hindus descending
to the holy waters of the Ganges for purification - a moving sight. Also
visit Benaras Hindu University and various temples. Evening bord train for
Delhi
Day 09 - Varanasi - Delhi / Out
Arrive Delhi in the morning. Laer transfer to the international airport
to connect flight for onward destination.
