The Golden Triangle Tours & Holidays

If truth be told, India is home to a number of golden travel opportunities, fascinating wildlife, soaring mountain peaks, bustling city centres, moments for spiritual education, and an incredibly delicious and varied cuisine. But one of the best, and most popular routes, to explore in this sprawling South Asian nation, is the Golden Triangle. This traveller’s route connects the country’s capital, New Delhi (at the top) to the home of the Taj Mahal, Agra (bottom right), and the fortress city of Jaipur (bottom left), all of which are home to a number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. This triangle offers tourists a chance to experience some of India’s finest cultural attractions, as well as the country’s varied landscapes along the way.

Your golden adventure commences in Delhi, where prominent landmarks of the 12th-century minaret of Qutb Minar and Humayun’s Tomb, combine with modern Connaught Place’s markets, boutiques, and restaurants. 

In Jaipur, you can experience the Hawa Mahal, also known as the “Palace of Winds”, and the City Palace, both of which are situated at the centre of Jaipur’s historical district. Just a few miles away lies the stunning Amber Fort, built from sandstone and marble in both Rajput and Mughal architectural styles. While you’re in this historic city, fill your bags with purchases from the vibrant bazaars selling handicrafts around the city. 

The highlight of your trip might be Agra when you take a moment to watch the sunrise at the Taj Mahal. From here, continue to Ranthambhore National Park to marvel at its grasslands, streams and beautiful pools and enjoy a tiger talk with a local naturalist.

We are also happy to offer you an expert local guide and a number of additional excursions to excite and delight you.
