Golden Triangle with Amritsar — Supersaver 9-Day Tour

From the lanes of Old Delhi to the sacred shores of Amritsar, discover India's most iconic cities in nine remarkable days.


The Golden Triangle with Amritsar is one of India's most celebrated touring routes, connecting the historical grandeur of Delhi, the regal pink streets of Jaipur, the Mughal magnificence of Agra, and the spiritual heartland of Amritsar in a single, well-structured itinerary. Designed for first-time visitors and returning travellers alike, this nine-day journey presents the subcontinent's most significant monuments, bazaars, and cultural landscapes in a comfortable, easy-paced format.

Delhi anchors the tour with its layered history, blending Mughal-era mosques and forts with wide imperial boulevards and colonial landmarks. Jaipur follows with its amber-hued palaces and bustling bazaars, while Agra draws the eye to the enduring beauty of the Taj Mahal. The extension to Amritsar adds a deeply moving dimension, from the serenity of the Golden Temple to the charged atmosphere of the Wagah border ceremony.

Throughout the journey, accommodation, guided sightseeing, and transfers are arranged so that travellers can focus entirely on the experience rather than the logistics. Each city reveals a distinct chapter of India's long and layered story.

This itinerary suits those seeking a reliable first encounter with India, combining well-known highlights with a pace that allows genuine absorption of each destination. The Supersaver format keeps the experience accessible without compromising on the quality of the sites visited.

Explore Old and New Delhi, including the Jama Masjid, Qutab Minar, India Gate, and the Humayun's Tomb.

Tour the magnificent Amber Fort in Jaipur, with its Sheesh Mahal mirror palace and ornate Ganesh Pol gate.

Visit the City Palace complex in Jaipur and browse the famous Johari and Tripolia bazaars for jewels and crafts.

Stand before the Taj Mahal in Agra, the 17th-century marble mausoleum built by Shah Jahan for his queen Mumtaz Mahal.

Discover Agra Fort, whose red sandstone battlements enclose the Diwan-i-Am, Diwan-i-Khas, and the Mina Masjid.
