Detailed Description

The treasures of India will come into sharp focus during this 7-day family tour of the Golden Triangle. You will discover the marvels of Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur during an exceptional trip that will immerse you in the local culture and provide private transfers, specialist guides, and the comforts of family-friendly accommodations. From the preserved monuments in Delhi’s Mehrauli Archeological Park to the sandstone courtyards of Fatehpur Sikri, you and your family can bask in the opulent designs of India’s distinctive heritage.

Your family-friendly India adventure will begin with two days in Delhi. You will have a chance to discover Delhi at your own pace and follow your guide through the districts that display the layers of the city’s heritage. You can wander the lanes of the renowned Chhatta Chowk bazaar and view Qutub Minar, which is the country’s tallest minaret. You will have a private transfer to Agra, where a guide will introduce you to the Mughal artifacts that decorate the cityscape. You will also visit iconic sites, such as the Agra Fort and Mehtab Bagh, before witnessing the sunset over the Taj Mahal.

The following day, you will venture to Jaipur, stopping en route at the remarkably preserved capital of Fatehpur Sikri. The capital city was founded in the 16th century but is now deserted. Your family will uncover the unique designs of the palaces and courtyards before reaching the Pink City and capital of Rajasthan. As you discover the treasures of Jaipur, your guide will lead your family through the Royal Palace Complex to find famous sites, such as the Hawa Mahal palace and Jantar Mantar Observatory.

Before you return to Delhi for a night, your family will have a guided tour of the Amber Fort. The dramatic ramparts protect a complex that consists of four courtyards, palaces, and halls to create a stunning representation of the royal family’s wealth and prestige. Your private driver will meet your family at the hotel on your last day in Delhi and escort you to the airport for your flight home.

India Travel Review: Mumbai, Slum Tour, Speakeasy, Tiger...

We were super-happy with the itinerary and the planning of our tour. Our days were well thought out, with enough touring and time to relax and unwind, getting to enjoy the hotels and amenities.  Zicasso’s travel agent and his associates were very helpful and attentive, and dealt with the couple of issues we had very quickly and professionally. We had a water leak in our first hotel room and they dealt with the hotel while we were on our tour.

Everyone at the travel company, their drivers, and guides were very knowledgeable and took great care of us, and we felt safe and secure the whole time we were there. We loved the hotels and appreciated their local knowledge, as we probably wouldn’t have gone otherwise.

We would definitely recommend Zicasso’s travel company.

All of the guides were personable, extremely versatile, enthusiastic, and gave us a real feel with an inside view of their city. The hotels were wonderful, all well chosen. Zicasso's travel company personalized our tour to our interests. We will probably go to another location with them next year!
