Traveller Reviews

★★★★★

“Six days was the perfect pace — never rushed. A full day to explore Old & New Delhi, then a sunset view of the Taj the evening we reached Agra and the sunrise the very next morning. Seeing it twice, in two completely different lights, was magical. Faultless organisation throughout.”

★★★★★

“The Abhaneri step well on the drive to Jaipur was a wonderful surprise, and a full day in Jaipur meant we saw everything from Amber Fort to the Jal Mahal without rushing. Our guides in every city were superb — Perfect Agra Tours looked after every detail.”

Frequently Asked Questions

The 6-day Golden Triangle is the relaxed version. You arrive and settle into Delhi on Day 1, enjoy a full day of Old & New Delhi on Day 2, then visit Akshardham and catch a sunset view of the Taj on the drive to Agra on Day 3. Day 4 is the Taj Mahal at sunrise followed by the drive to Jaipur via the Abhaneri step well, Day 5 is a full unhurried day in Jaipur, and Day 6 is your return to Delhi. No day feels rushed.

Hotels are not included in the base price but can be arranged. We work with vetted 3-star, 4-star and 5-star properties in both Agra and Jaipur. Share your preference when enquiring and we’ll include hotel options in your quote. Agra 5-star options include properties with direct Taj Mahal views from the room.

Entry fees are not included in the base tour price and are paid on-site. Your guide will tell you exactly what each monument costs before you enter — there are no surprises. Entry fee costs for foreign nationals are available from us on request.

October to March — cool, dry and clear across all three cities. November to February is the prime season. April to June is hot (Delhi can reach 45°C) but manageable in an AC car. July to September (monsoon) brings rain but also lush greenery and thinner crowds at the monuments.

Absolutely — we build all Golden Triangle tours to your preferences. Common additions include Fatehpur Sikri en route to Agra, Mehtab Bagh (the sunset garden opposite the Taj), Nahargarh Fort in Jaipur, or extra time at any site. Just mention it when you enquire.

The Taj Mahal is closed every Friday. We always confirm your travel dates avoid a Friday before building the itinerary — this is handled automatically when you book with us.
