Best of India catered with diversity and explore wonders like Tajmahal, City of Maharaja Jaipur, oldest living city and seat of culture like Varanasi and great structures of Khajuraho. This combination of enchanting destinations however, displays the richness of India’s history, heritage, rural and culture very beautifully in shortest time possible with value of money.

In this tour you are visiting:-

Delhi: Delhi is the best place to experience all that brings people to India: history, culture, food, spirituality, madness, mystery. Spend a day amid its lived-in splendor and you’ll realize why so many battles have been fought over it. Here are the extremes that make India so compelling.

Jaipur: At the heart of Jaipur lies the Pink City, the old walled quarter, whose bazaars rank among the most vibrant in Asia, renowned for their textiles, jewellery and Rajasthani handicrafts. For all its colour, however, the city’s modern outlook and commercial hustle and bustle offer a stimulating contrast to many other places in the state.

Bharatpur: Bharatpur is also home to one of the world’s best-known bird watching destinations, Keoladeo Ghana National Park (KNP). 250 years ago, the then ruler built embankments that allowed flooding of this land, turning it into a marsh.

Agra: The splendour of Agra – India’s capital under the Mughals – remains undiminished, from the massive fort to the magnificent Taj Mahal. You can go shopping for designer marble statues and marble carved stones which is also why Agra is famous for.

Gwalior: Gwalior is northern Madhya Pradesh’s largest city and boasts one of India’s most magnificent hilltop forts.

Orchha: Its tumbledown state, the fortified and now deserted medieval town remains an architectural gem, its guano-splashed temple shikharas, derelict palaces, havelis and weed-choked sandstone cenotaphs floating serenely above the banks of the River Betwa. Clustered around the foot of the exotic ruins, the sleepy village makes an excellent spot to unwind after the hassle of northern cities.

Khajuraho: The resplendent Hindu temples of Khajuraho, immaculately restored after almost a millennium of abandonment and neglect and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are an essential stop on any itinerary of India’s historic monuments. Famed for the delicate sensuality – and forthright eroticism – of their sculpture, they were built between the tenth and twelfth centuries AD and remain the greatest architectural achievement of the Chandella dynasty.

Bhangarh Castle ruins: Believe most haunted palace in the world.

Abhaneri: An Old, beautiful but stunning step well with historic and culturally importance.  

Kakanath Math Temple: A historic Temple without joints.

Sonagiri Hills: A beautiful hill with hundred clusters of Temples.

Datia Palace: An unexplored fort of India.
