Agra Sightseeing & Drive to Ranthambhore (5-Hour Drive)

Taj Mahal - Start the journey with a pick-up at 6 am from your hotel or any preferred location in Agra. At sunrise, explore the world-renowned symbol of love – The Taj Mahal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site (closed on Fridays). Immerse yourself in its stunning architecture, rich history, and beauty. While the Taj Mahal is captivating at any time, the most breathtaking views occur during sunrise and sunset, when the sky creates a symphony of colors, and the monument’s translucent marble absorbs and reflects the magical light. Return to your hotel afterward to enjoy breakfast.

Agra Fort - Following breakfast, visit Agra Fort (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) - a historic fort along the Yamuna River in Agra. It served as the main residence for the Mughal Dynasty emperors until 1638 and is one of India’s finest Mughal forts. As you walk through the courtyards of this grand red-sandstone and marble fortress, you’ll be amazed by the scale and grandeur of what was constructed here.

Ranthambore Tiger Reserve - In the afternoon, head to Ranthambhore National Park, a 5-hour drive from Agra. Ranthambhore is a favored national park in India due to its high density of tigers living in their natural environment. Upon arrival, check in to your Jungle Resort.

Ranthambhore Jungle Safari and Drive to Jaipur (3-Hour Drive)

Ranthambore Tiger Reserve - Embark on a morning safari in the Tiger Reserve in a shared Jeep/Canter, searching for the elusive tiger. While wild boars, monkeys, spotted deer, and antelopes are more commonly seen in the dry, deciduous forest, this is the ideal place to witness tigers in their natural habitat. Drive through the park with an expert guide who knows the park and its big cats intimately. After the safari, return to your resort for breakfast and some relaxation before your afternoon safari.

Ranthambore Tiger Reserve - In the afternoon, enjoy another excursion into the national park with an expert naturalist in a shared Jeep/Canter. Besides wildlife, the park features lakes, palace ruins, traditional Chhatri, old fortifications, and a majestic 1,000-year-old fort.

Jaipur - After your second safari, drive 3 hours to Jaipur, affectionately known as the Pink City. This picturesque destination earned its name when all its buildings were painted pink in 1876 to welcome Queen Victoria. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel.

Jaipur City Tour and Drop-off in Jaipur

Amber Palace - After breakfast, check out from the hotel and visit Amber Fort. This magnificent, imposing, honey-hued fort comprises an extensive palace complex built from pale yellow and pink sandstone and white marble, divided into four main sections, each with its own courtyard.

Jal Mahal - Stop for a photo at Jal Mahal (Water Palace) - located near the cenotaphs of Jaipur’s maharanis and beautifully set in the watery expanse of Man Sagar. Its origins are uncertain, but it is believed to have been extensively restored, if not built, by Jai Singh II in 1734.

Hawa Mahal - Palace of Wind - Stop for a photo at Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds) - Jaipur’s most iconic landmark, an extraordinary pink-painted, delicately honeycombed hive that rises five stories high. It was constructed in 1799 by Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh to allow royal ladies to observe city life and processions.

City Palace of Jaipur - Afternoon sightseeing includes a visit to The City Palace, the residence of the royal family. This complex of courtyards, gardens, and buildings is a striking blend of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture.

Jantar Mantar - Jaipur - Visit Jantar Mantar Observatory (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) - a collection of curving geometric structures carefully calibrated to monitor the movement of stars and planets.

Monkey Temple - Finally, visit the 15th-century Galtaji Temple (The Abode of Monkeys), also known as Monkey Temple, famous for its complex structure. It features three sacred pools of water and is surrounded by two granite cliffs, where many monkeys can be seen bathing.
