Delhi, Agra and Jaipur form India’s best-known first route. Our private Golden Triangle tours improve it through quieter timings, well-positioned stays, specialist guides and extensions chosen for a clear reason.
Delhi, Agra and Jaipur remain the shared foundation. The collection then opens into sacred Varanasi, royal Rajasthan, tiger country, Kerala and the Himalayan north—so the first decision is not only where to begin, but how deeply to continue.
Every route includes private transport, city specialists and one New Delhi point of contact, with the sequence adjusted around opening times, traffic and the way you prefer to travel.

A private tour of the Golden Triangle is not decided by cities and nights alone. We first understand your pace, guiding preferences, hotel style, food interests, tolerance for road journeys and the reason for travelling before we shape the route.
