• Start in Old Delhi—tight lanes, spice markets, and neighbourhood temples—then take a rickshaw ride through the heart of it.
• Move into New Delhi for a change of scale: broad avenues, landmark architecture, and calmer spaces.
• Visit Humayun’s Tomb (and/or nearby heritage areas) for a strong first-day monument without overfilling the schedule.
• Keep the evening open so the day can land properly after travel and first impressions.

Personalise: Add a night before arrival to recover from international travel, or keep Day 1 lighter if you’re landing late.

• Drive south toward Agra and settle in without rushing straight into monuments.
• Keep the afternoon light—rest, a café stop, or a slow walk—so the Taj day feels unforced.
• Include a unique cultural experience in the evening that adds context to the Taj’s story (music, movement, and narrative), not a generic show.
• Dinner and downtime stay flexible based on energy.

• Visit the Taj Mahal and take it at a steady pace—time for the symmetry, the gardens, and the changing light.
• Continue to Agra Fort for the political and architectural counterpoint: walls, halls, and river-facing views.
• Add a craft layer to the day with a visit to a local zardozi workshop, so Agra isn’t only monuments.
• Afternoon is intentionally lighter—rest, a quiet corner of the city, or a simple add-on if you want it.

• Travel west into Rajasthan with a clear mid-day stop at Chand Baori (Abhaneri)—pure geometry, scale, and shadow.
• Continue into Jaipur and check in with a calmer arrival plan, not a full sightseeing push.
• Use the first Jaipur evening for a simple introduction: a neighbourhood walk, a market lane, or an easy dinner.
• Sleep early if you want a strong fort morning the next day.

• Start with Amber Fort for hilltop architecture, courtyards, and long views over the valley.
• Move into the city for City Palace and Jantar Mantar—royal life, courtyards, and Jaipur’s obsession with order and measurement.
• Spend time in a working craft neighbourhood—block printing, textiles, metalwork—kept practical and pressure-free.
• Choose a Jaipur sunset moment: a viewpoint, a rooftop tea, or a quiet drive as the city cools down.

• Fly into Udaipur and shift gears—less monument-hopping, more lakeside pace.
• Check in and ease into the city with a slow first layer: a promenade walk, a café by the water, or a short heritage lane.
• Sunset boat ride on Lake Pichola—calm, scenic, and worth doing early in the Udaipur stay.
• Evening stays open for a relaxed dinner and early night.

• Visit Udaipur City Palace for art, courtyards, and lake-facing views that explain why the city feels different.
• Add one quiet contrast: Saheliyon-ki-Bari, a small museum, or a short gallery lane—simple, not crowded.
• Optional outdoor break around Badi Lake for air, space, and a softer side of Udaipur beyond the core sights.
• Afternoon is unstructured by design—markets, cafés, or downtime back at the hotel.

• Drive north toward Jodhpur with a meaningful stop at Ranakpur Jain Temple—a marble marvel with increible detailingand quiet intensity.
• Arrive and check in without forcing a full city tour on arrival day.
• Take a first look at the Blue City from above, or keep it simple with an early dinner and rest.
• Evening stays light so the fort day feels strong.

• Visit Mehrangarh Fort for scale, collections, and views that explain the city’s layout in one sweep.
• Step down into Blue City lanes for texture—doorways, steps, daily life, and small shrines tucked into the neighbourhood.
• Jaswant Thada for a quieter architectural counterpoint and a calmer pause in the day.
• Keep late afternoon flexible: a market lane, a café stop, or downtime back at the hotel.

• Fly back to Delhi and reset with an easy arrival plan.
• Add one clean final monument layer: Qutub Minar and the surrounding heritage complex at an unhurried pace.
• Keep the evening open—rest, packing, or a final dinner depending on flight timing the next day.

• Start with Bangla Sahib for a calm Delhi morning before the city ramps up.
• If time allows, add one simple last layer—street-food lane, a short market stop, or a focused museum visit.
• Farewell lunch can sit close to the airport corridor, then transfers run on flight timing.

Personalisation: Add a night after arrival in Delhi to avoid a rushed departure.
