Delhi Luxury Tours

A kaleidoscopic feast for the senses, this bustling metropolis combines its ancient past and vibrant historic traditions with the sweeping avenues and glimmering skyscrapers of modern-day India. Our Golden Triangle tour begins in the 17th century walled city of Old Delhi. Wander labyrinthian alleys and shop for hand-crafted souvenirs at the buzzing and vibrant bazaars as aromatic spices cling to your nostrils and customers barter prices with market vendors. Weaving through this timeless city, you’ll marvel at the grand beams, alcoves and arches of the magnificent garden tomb of Humayun, built in 1572, before admiring the architecture of the Red Fort, its towering red sandstone ramparts and the Stream of Paradise. Visit the grand Qutub Minar minaret, fashioned from marble, quartzite and sandstone, and the fascinating 11th century ruins of the surrounding Qutb Complex – the site of Lal Kot, Delhi’s oldest fortified city. Step into the modernity of New Delhi, a world away from its historic counterpart. Gaze up at the India Gate war memorial, inspired by the Arc de Triomphe, then observe the grandeur of the Rashtrapati Bhavan. Stroll through the meticulously manicured Mughal Gardens and admire tranquil fountain channels, neighboured by creepers of jasmine, rose, adenocalymma and China orange trees. Observe avant-garde paintings and sculptures at the National Gallery of Modern Art; excite your taste buds with the rich spices of Delhi street food, from panipuri (fried dough filled with spiced potatoes, chili, onions and chickpeas) to mouth-watering kebabs; and silently reflect in the serenity of the Lotus Temple. Alternatively, experience Delhi as part of a luxurious four-day rail journey aboard the Maharajas’ Express. Enjoy sumptuous gourmet meals as you travel across the dramatic Indian landscapes, taking in striking vistas of rolling hills, soaring monuments and futuristic skyscrapers, stopping off at Delhi, Agra and Jaipur.
