Day 1: Delhi Arrival

Location: Delhi

Accommodation Name: hotel

Welcome to Delhi! This is a monumental city boasting a fascinating mix of old and new bazaars, elegant British boulevards, powerful Mughal palaces and forts, and intricate, ethereal towers, temples, and tombs. Upon arrival at Delhi International Airport, you will be met by our company representative and transferred to your hotel.




Overnight in Delhi

Day 2: Delhi - Agra (205 Kms / 3 Hrs) (B/-/-)

Location: Agra

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

After breakfast embark on a tour of Old and New Delhi. You will visit Raj Ghat, Mahatma Gandhis serene and evocative cremation site, India Gate (the War Memorial) and the Presidents House (exterior views), and the Bahai Lotus Temple (closed on Mondays). This distinctive lotus-shaped marvel in marble is a symbol that represents peace. From there you will continue your journey to the Qutub Minar, a stunning 240-foot minaret and the tallest in the world, surrounded by an elaborate complex built in the Indo-Islamic architectural tradition. Drive to the medieval city of Agra, home to the famous Taj Mahal. Agra is one of Indias top tourist attractions for this reason specifically — although its attractions also feature a wide range of other impressive historical sites. The Taj, however, is in a league of its own and is a must-see for any visitor to the city. Commissioned by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in the 15th century as a memorial to his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, it is an architectural masterpiece of exquisite craftsmanship and perfect proportions. Enjoy your evening at your own leisure (no services offered). You may visit the citys hidden alleyways and lively spice markets or hop on a cycle rickshaw and admire colorful Hindu temples and traditional mosques. Choose to visit a local restaurant to enjoy incredible Indian food.




Overnight in Agra

Day 3: Agra (B/-/-)

Location: Agra

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

Today you will visit the Taj Mahal (closed on Fridays). Widely considered the pinnacle of Mughal art in India, the Taj Mahal was built by Emperor Shah Jahan for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. When declaring it a World Heritage Site, UNESCO described it as “The Jewel of Muslim Art in India”. Few words can be used to describe the magnificence of this monument. Marvel over the lights and colors which transform this stunning monument in the beautiful dawn glow. Return to the hotel later to enjoy a Marble craftsmanship demonstration.




Overnight in Agra

Day 4: Agra - Jaipur (250 Kms / 5 Hrs) (B/-/-)

Location: Jaipur

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

Today you will drive to Jaipur. Enjoy an en-route visit to Fatehpur Sikri — an eerily abandoned capital from the Mughal Empire (1570-1586). Akbar built this city to celebrate the birth of his son and future heir to the throne, Emperor Jahangir. Although Akbar is believed to have been illiterate, he took great interest in the arts and architecture. Fatehpur Sikri is one of his greatest masterpieces. Sadly, the historic town served as the capital for a little over a decade and was abandoned for its lack of accessible water. Later, enjoy a demonstration of gem-cutting and polishing. Upon arrival in the evening, check-in to the hotel. Jaipur, Rajasthans capital, is also known as the Pink City. The origin of this nickname will become immediately apparent as you enter the old city walls and discover the pink-colored buildings that rise at every turn!




Overnight in Jaipur

Day 5: Jaipur (B/-/-)

Location: Jaipur

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

Begin your day with an exhilarating excursion to Amber Fort. Situated on a hillside on the outskirts of town, the palace was constructed by Maharaja Man Singh, the commander of Akbars army, in the 1590s. Maharaja was largely motivated by the highly defensible location. This is a beautiful and very well-preserved structure, built on four levels and surrounded by ruins, which served as the backdrop for the Mira Nair movie “Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love.” Enjoy an afternoon at leisure or perhaps join our optional tour.




Overnight in Jaipur

Day 6: Jaipur - Pushkar (140 Kms /3.5 Hrs) (B/-/-)

Location: Pushkar

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

Before breakfast, join our optional tour of Hot Air Ballooning over Jaipur at sunrise.



In the morning you will drive to Pushkar — a sacred city for Hindus. Surrounded by hills on three sides and dunes on the fourth, Pushkar offers a fascinating location and perfect setting for the annual religious and cattle fair (held in November). What is a quiet, secluded desert town for 51 weeks a year, for a few days it turns into an incredible and authentic extravaganza during the annual Pushkar Fair. Drawing people from all around the globe, this festival is arguably the largest camel and cattle-trading fair in the world. Upon arrival in Pushkar, you will check-in at the hotel. Enjoy a walking tour of, Brahma, the holy city of God. Visit the holy Pushkar Lake and the famous 8th century Brahma Temple dedicated to Lord Brahma, the creator of the universe and the only bull temple in the world. Experience a special Pooja ceremony at a Ghat with a Hindu priest on the banks of Pushkar Lake.




Overnight in Pushkar

Day 7: Pushkar - Udaipur (260 Kms / 5 Hrs) (B/-/-)

Location: Udaipur

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

After breakfast, you will drive to Udaipur. Udaipur is a majestic city of lakes and palaces. Founded by Maharana Udai Singh in 1559 and fondly referred to as Rajasthans most romantic city, its rich history is matched by its picturesque setting of the Aravalli Mountains and three manmade lakes. Upon arrival in Udaipur, you will check in to your hotel. After some short rest, explore the city on your own or choose to join our optional tour.




Overnight in Udaipur

Day 8: Udaipur (B/-/-)

Location: Udaipur

Accommodation Name: hotel

Meals Included: Breakfast

We will start our day at the City Palace, overlooking the blue waters of Lake Pichola. Maharana Udai Singh initiated construction in 1559 A.D., and it was subsequently expanded, with impressive uniformity, by several succeeding Maharanas. The palace boasts numerous breathtaking courtyards and gardens. The main hall has been converted into a museum, housing opulent artifacts and original works of art. Inside the complex we will discover the exquisite crystal gallery, exhibiting 19th-century pieces including crystal chandeliers, tables, sofas, and beds. We will continue walking towards the Jagdish Temple to study its many remarkable friezes. Lavishly built in 1651 by Maharana Jagat Singh, it is easy to understand why Jagdish is the most venerated Hindu temple in Udaipur. From there, we will explore the Old City, wandering through the bustling streets lined with art shops, spice vendors, tailors, and more.

Thanks to Indus and Nicko...

13-Sep-2024

Thanks to Indus and Nicko Cruise for a great trip down the Danube. I had not been on a river cruise prior to this and found it a very relaxing way to travel and see some European highlights. The ship was superb. The staff served great meals, were friendly and accommodating. As far as the tours and city visits, they all gave us a reasonable amount of time and insight into the location we were visiting to come away with a sense that we had a good glimpse of the city and were able to spend some free time in the city as well. A special thanks to Dhruv our fearless leader from Indus who was a great organizer. Lastly - nice to meet all of you in our group. terry

07-Dec-2023

Booked Mystical Egypt tour with them visiting Cairo and a 03 Nights Cruise from Luxor to Aswan in May. All services were perfect since the time we arrived at the airport, we were met by a hospitable Indus Representative who helped us with the purchase of local SIM and currency exchange. He was always there in time to assist for transfers. The Amwaj Cruise which we took from Luxor to Aswan was a Gem. We had great guides and all sightseeing worked like a clockwork. We enjoyed visiting Karnak Temples, Temples of Edfu, Kom Ombo and the boat ride to see Phillae Temple. Evening entertainment on cruise were great and engaging. In Cairo and Aswan, we had ample leisure time to explore on own, the Pyramids were impressive and visiting Khan e Khalili was fun. Overall and impressive and enjoyable tour, Thanks to Indus Travels!

09-Jun-2023

Recently went on a Rhine River Cruise, a first for me. I must say the experience was exceptional, their tagline says. The group I was with were some of the most fun and interesting set of people I've ever traveled with. The ground transportation arrangements were top notch and comfortable. Variety in menu that we were provided with in the cruise was astounding. I was a bit worried if they'd have much options for me as I'm a vegetarian. But they not only had options, the taste was something I'd savor for foreseeable future. There's a reason Rhine cruises are popular owing to it's serene and picturesque route. Guided tours were very informative and gave us a bit of an insight of German culture. We had good amount of time to explore the towns on our own too. Strasbourg and Cochem were my favorite stops. Luckily the weather worked in our favour and it didn't rain the way it was predicted originally. No one from our group wanted the tour to end. If this trip was any indication, I can't wait to book my next trip with Indus Travels.

04-Mar-2024

Indus Travel runs a highly professional organization. From customer service to brochures, bookings, tour guides, etc. and the consideration for their customers is superb. This was the first time I had travelled with Indus Travels. We took the Taste of Portugal Tour. Group numbers are small, accommodation comfortable and food excellent. The expert guide who accompanied us was outstanding - passionate, informative, engaging, and entertaining. This company is obviously at the heart of the itinerary planning, and attention to detail is second to none. I would highly recommend this company to anyone wanting a fun, relaxed, educational vacation with fine food - they will deliver! We will never forget this trip and we are already planning for another one to Wonders of Italy, Vienna, Budapest, and Prague.

We were looking for a customized, small group tour. We took a chance on Indus without knowing much about the company. We just returned from our trip to Greece and are more than highly please and satisfied with our experience. They planned an amazing itinerary, booked amazing hotels, hired knowledgeable tour guides and arranged high quality transportation services. Everyone went above and beyond to please us. We are already planning a trip for next year (2024) and will definitely use Indus to do so.
