Day-by-day itinerary
Day 1 • Old and New Delhi
Start around Jama Masjid and Chandni Chowk if your arrival time allows. Save part of the day for Humayun’s Tomb or Qutub Minar. Ask your guide which Delhi stops fit the time you have.
Day 2 • Agra and the Taj Mahal
Drive to Agra. The listing pairs the Taj Mahal with Agra Fort and mentions Itmad-ud-Daulah and Mehtab Bagh. Agree which views and monuments you want to prioritize.
Day 3 • Fatehpur Sikri and Jaipur
Stop at Fatehpur Sikri on the way to Jaipur. Allow time for the courtyards, Panch Mahal and Buland Darwaza. Continue to Jaipur for the first of two nights.
Day 4 • Amber Fort and central Jaipur
Start with Amber Fort. Then visit the City Palace, Jantar Mantar and Hawa Mahal according to your pace. A photo stop at Jal Mahal can fit between Amber and central Jaipur.
Day 5 • Return to Delhi
After breakfast, return to Delhi. Allow a buffer for the drive if you are going straight to the airport.
What to confirm before you book
