| Details | | Intrepid Travel | | | | Day | Destination | Description | | Day 1 | Delhi | The starting point for an adventure, Delhi is a chaotic medley of bazaars, museums, temples, mosques and colonial buildings. Weave your way through the modern cars, rickshaws and bullock carts to experience fast-paced city life. | | Day 2 | Agra | Take a fast train to Agra. This former Mughal capital is home to some impressive buildings, including the romantic Taj Mahal and massive Red Fort, which dominates the skyline. The fort is a maze of halls, mosques, chambers and gardens which forms a small city in its own right. | | Day 3 | Bharatpur Heritage Stay | Explore deserted palaces and pavilions of the Mughal kingdom of Fatehpur Sikri, a perfectly preserved ghost town. Take a rickshaw through Keoladeo Bird Sanctuary to spot exotic species. Have an Indian cultural experience, visiting a rural village and enjoying an evening of music and dance. | | Days 4-5 | Jaipur | The pink sandstone Palace of Winds, the enchanting Amber Palace and lively streets of the Old City make Jaipur a colourful place to visit. This friendly town is brimming with palaces and bazaars full of jewellery, textiles and local art. Be sure to check out the latest Bollywood blockbuster, sitting back in the art deco splendour of the Raj Mandir Cinema. | | Days 6-7 | Delhi | Search for silk, hand painted textiles or folk art in the Jaipur bazaars, then head back to Delhi for a final taste of the bustling city. Pehaps indulge in a traditional aloo gobi, or seek out some of India's famous sweet treats from a foodstall. The National Ghandi Museum and National Museum are both well worth a visit, or explore the ruins of Qutb Minar and Purana Qila. |
