Day 02 - In Delhi

Explore Delhi today starting with Old Delhi in the morning: enjoy a cycle rickshaw ride in the bustling lanes of Chandni Chowk followed by the Jama Masjid, the largest mosque in India. In the afternoon, drive past Lutyens's New Delhi and visit the tomb of Humayun and the Qutab Minar. Spend some time at the Bangla Sahib Sikh Temple for blessings and see & participate in the community kitchen.

Day 03 - Drive to Agra

[Optional : Visit to the Sherous Hangout Cafe]               
                                            

Day 04 - Drive to Jaipur

An early start this morning, but worth it for sunrise views of the Taj Mahal. It's also the quietest time to visit, before the crowds arrive. Return back to your hotel and drive to Jaipur (05-06 Hrs) where you would be visiting the abandoned city of Fatehpur Sikri enroute. Closer to Jaipur you would stop at the impressive 9th century step well at Abhaneri.
