The Experience

Before You Go

Carry Local ID and Copies

Original passport is required for some bookings; keep a photocopy and one digital photo to speed entry processes.

Beat the Heat with Early Starts

Plan major visits (Taj Mahal, Amber Fort) for first light to avoid midday heat and peak crowds.

Comfortable Footwear

Expect uneven stone floors and stairs—sturdy closed-toe shoes make forts and palace courtyards far easier to explore.

Cash for Small Purchases

Carry small denominations for street food, tips and market purchases—ATMs are available but not always convenient.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Mehrauli Archaeological Park (less visited archaeological site near Delhi)
  • Baseri Bazaar lanes in Jaipur for block-printed textiles and quieter street food stalls

Wildlife

  • House sparrows and mynas common in city gardens
  • Nilgai and peafowl sometimes seen on Jaipur outskirts

Conservation Note

High visitor numbers stress monuments—follow established paths, avoid touching marble surfaces, and use refillable bottles to reduce plastic waste.

The Golden Triangle links Mughal-era Agra and Delhi with the Rajput capital of Jaipur; much of the route reflects 16th–18th century political shifts and court architecture.
