Your suggested itinerary
Day 01
Arrive in Delhi — welcome and time to rest
Meet your driver at Delhi airport and transfer to your hotel. Keep the day flexible after your journey, with time to rest. For an early arrival, a short New Delhi orientation may include an India Gate drive-past and the surrounding government district, subject to local traffic and security arrangements. A full sightseeing day begins tomorrow; no major monument visits are assumed after a late flight.
Suggested overnight: DelhiDay 02
Old and New Delhi — Chandni Chowk and Mughal heritage
Begin in Old Delhi with Jama Masjid and the Chandni Chowk area, allowing time for a guided walk or an optional cycle-rickshaw ride. Continue to Raj Ghat if it suits the route, then take a lunch break. In the afternoon, visit Humayun’s Tomb and finish with an India Gate drive-past if not covered on arrival. Qutub Minar can replace an afternoon visit according to your interests, rather than adding another cross-city journey. Access, prayer times and opening schedules will shape the final order.
Suggested overnight: DelhiDay 03
Delhi to Agra — Agra Fort and optional riverside views
Travel by private vehicle to Agra, allowing approximately 4–5 hours including normal breaks, with traffic delays possible. Check in or leave your luggage at the hotel, then explore Agra Fort with your guide. If time and energy allow, choose an optional Mehtab Bagh visit for views towards the Taj Mahal across the Yamuna. Keep the evening relaxed before tomorrow’s early start. Hotel check-in time and monument tickets are confirmed in your quotation.
Suggested overnight: AgraDay 04
Taj Mahal at sunrise — Fatehpur Sikri — Jaipur
Visit the Taj Mahal around sunrise, subject to opening conditions, weather and your agreed schedule. Return for breakfast and check out, then continue to Jaipur with a visit to Fatehpur Sikri en route if included in your proposal. Allow approximately 5–6 hours of road travel plus 1–2 hours for the sightseeing stop and meal breaks; this is a full travel day. Reach Jaipur and settle into your hotel. The Taj Mahal is closed to general visitors on Fridays, so your advisor will adjust the Agra visit or route before confirmation.
Suggested overnight: JaipurDay 05
Jaipur — Amber Fort, City Palace and Jantar Mantar
Start with Amber Fort, allowing time to appreciate its courtyards and architectural details. Stop for an exterior view of Jal Mahal on the return towards the city, then take a lunch break. Visit the City Palace and Jantar Mantar, with a Hawa Mahal façade photo stop planned along the route. The order is adjusted around traffic, opening hours and your pace. If you prefer longer visits or market time, replace one afternoon attraction rather than trying to add everything. Craft demonstrations and shopping stops are optional.
Suggested overnight: JaipurDay 06
Jaipur to Delhi — overnight before the next journey
Drive to Delhi after breakfast, allowing approximately 5–6 hours plus breaks and possible traffic delays. Check in and relax. An optional Connaught Place walk or Gurudwara Bangla Sahib visit can be discussed after an early arrival; no extra cross-city sightseeing is assumed. The overnight separates this road journey from tomorrow’s onward connection.
Suggested overnight: DelhiDay 07
Delhi to Haridwar — Har Ki Pauri and evening Aarti
Drive to Haridwar, allowing approximately 5–7 hours including breaks and traffic, with longer journeys possible during pilgrimage peaks. Check in and rest. Later, walk in the Har Ki Pauri area and observe the evening Ganga Aarti from an appropriate public viewpoint if operating conditions permit. Allow time for crowds and local vehicle restrictions. No temple queue or cable-car outing is promised before the evening ceremony.
Suggested overnight: HaridwarDay 08
Haridwar to Rishikesh — temples and riverside introduction
After breakfast, choose a Mansa Devi Temple visit if access, queues and mobility make it suitable; ropeway tickets are optional and separately confirmed. Continue to Rishikesh, allowing approximately 1–2 hours depending on traffic and hotel location. Check in and enjoy a gentle riverfront walk. Triveni Ghat Aarti can be planned in the evening if desired. Do not try to add every Haridwar and Rishikesh temple to this short transfer day.
Suggested overnight: RishikeshDay 09
Rishikesh — ashram quarter, riverside walks and Aarti
Explore selected areas around Swarg Ashram, the Ram Jhula neighbourhood and the riverside ghats with a guide. Bridge access and pedestrian routes follow current local instructions; no particular crossing is guaranteed. The Beatles Ashram can be included if open and you are comfortable with walking. After a midday break, attend an evening Aarti at Parmarth Niketan if available, or choose Triveni Ghat. Yoga sessions are optional and require advance arrangement; rafting and adventure activities are not assumed.
Suggested overnight: RishikeshDay 10
Rishikesh to Delhi — onward arrangements
Return to Delhi by private vehicle, allowing approximately 6–8 hours including breaks and a traffic buffer. No distant sightseeing is scheduled before the journey. Choose an onward flight only after checking the actual departure time and airport reporting requirements, or add a Delhi hotel night for an early departure. Busy pilgrimage dates and road disruption can extend travel times.
