Pleasures of the Provocative Golden Triangle Tour

One of the most popular tourist circuits of India, the Golden Triangle tour fulfills all the conditions of a fantasy and dream luxury vacation. The classic tour option of Northern India, Golden Triangle consists of three major cities - Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. Usually 7 or 8 days long, the cost of a standard Golden Triangle tour packages include flight tickets and transfers, hotel accommodations, guided sightseeing tour of the three cities and a private coach to drive you to the three major destinations. Most of the time, the trip starts and ends at Delhi - the Capital of India.

Presenting a true kaleidoscope of grandiose monument, imposing forts and majestic palaces along with rich cultural and religious heritage, the three cities of the Golden Triangle tour presents a dazzling vista of Indian pageantry. While Jaipur represents the royal spectacles of Rajput warriors who once ruled the princely states of Rajasthan, Agra won its place in the Golden Triangle through its Mughal legacy. Delhi presents a cultural potpourri of true India with Mughal impressions prominent in Old Delhi and British reflections and recollections that one can see at New Delhi.

Each city of the Golden Triangle has a distinctive identity that combines sophistication and opulence in a unique mix to reflect its history. One of the hottest picks for foreign tourists, the Golden Triangle Tour beckons tourists by offering modernistic comforts and unrivaled tourism facilities along with the charm of the bygone eras deep-rooted in the culture and traditions of the three cities. The majestic architectural specimens strewn around Delhi include the Red Fort, Jama Masjid, India Gate and the President's House. At Agra, you will marvel at Taj Mahal, a poem in stone and one of Seven Wonders of the World along with Agra Fort and Itmad-ud-Daullah's Tomb.

Jaipur displays impeccable skills, great aesthetic sense and scientific ingenuity of its local artisans in the subdued magnificence of its structures such as Hawa Mahal or the Palace of Winds with its natural air-conditioning system and delicate screen façade. The palace was once used as the Summer Palace for the royal ladies and the five-storey façade was meant to keep them veiled from prying eyes while allowing them to see whatever is happening in the central market area without any interruption. The City Palace or the House of the Royals; and the Jantar Mantar or the Royal Observatory built on the blueprints of Raja Sawai Jai Singh II in the 16th century are other wonders of the city. The huge masonry instruments of Jantar Mantar can still be used to make accurate calculations of astronomy.

Pushing imagination to farthest limits, the kaleidoscope of the Golden Triangle Tour has an ethereal quality that makes the entire trip feel like a fairy tale or hallucination with histories and legends that overlap with each other, seamless transfer from one scene to another without breaking flow of our thoughts or our visualization of the era, and surrealistic visions painted by expert guides whose narrations will transport to the past times. The Golden Triangle Tour of North India weaves brilliant images of regal splendors of the past and offers you an opportunity to embrace some of the best Oriental handicrafts pieces in your artwork, jewellery and wardrobe collection.
