About this Tour

There’s something magical about blending history with spirituality—and that’s exactly what this 9-day Golden Triangle Tour with Haridwar and Rishikesh offers. Starting in the bustling heart of Delhi, you’ll explore the vibrant streets, majestic Mughal architecture, and grand monuments that echo centuries of history. From there, journey into the royal heritage of Jaipur, the Pink City, before being swept away by the timeless romance of the Taj Mahal in Agra.

But this isn’t just a history tour—it’s also a soul-stirring retreat. After exploring India’s cultural triangle, we head into the divine lands of Uttarakhand. In Haridwar, experience the surreal Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri, and in Rishikesh, feel the peace settle in as you cross the iconic Laxman Jhula and soak in the tranquil Ganges. From ancient temples and spiritual chants to riverside yoga and a scenic cable ride to Mansa Devi Temple, every moment is deeply enriching.

Whether it’s sunrise over the Taj or the rhythmic aarti chants under the Himalayan sky, this journey weaves together India’s sacred and regal sides into one unforgettable story.
