The ethereal light and fewer tourists make this one of the best times to visit this beautiful monument. A silent battery van will take you up to the entrance, and once inside, you will be enthralled by the magnificence of this quite remarkable white marble building and its setting.
The Taj Mahal is a UNESCO Heritage Site, and the sun rises over it—undisputedly one of the world’s most beautiful buildings. In the soft morning light, as the mist rises from the Yamuna River, it seems to float like a mirage above the surrounding landscape. Built from dazzling marble, its colour changes from white to yellow, cream, and almost orange, an exquisite image that you’ll remember forever. After a relaxed breakfast, drive to Jaipur, stopping en route to visit Fatehpur Sikri.
Fatehpur Sikri is a deserted, red sandstone City built by Emperor Akbar as his capital and palace in the late 16th century. A visit to this veritable fairytale city is an exhilarating experience, its ‘ruins’ in such pristine condition that it’s not hard to imagine what the court life must have been like in the days of its grandeur.

Leave your guide here and continue by car to Jaipur. En route, visit another hidden gem – Chand Baori (stepwell), which is located in the Abhaneri village. This stepwell was built by King Chanda somewhere in the 9th century and is one of the largest stepwells in the world.

It thrills the soul with its massive forts, magnificent palaces, exquisite temples, and lush gardens. Your first stop in today’s sightseeing tour will be Amber Fort.

It houses the Chandra Mahal, Shri Govind Dev Temple, and the City Palace Museum. Next, you will explore Jantar Mantar, which is the largest and the best preserved of the five observatories built by Jai Singh II in different parts of the country. This observatory, consisting of outsized astronomical instruments, is still in use, and incredibly, the sundials can tell time to the nearest second!
The last place to visit in Jaipur is the Hawa Mahal, also known as the “Palace of Winds.” Its five-storey structure of sandstone plastered pink is encrusted with fine trelliswork and elaborate balconies. The palace has 953 niches and windows. Built-in 1799 by Pratap Singh, the Mahal was a royal grandstand for the palace women where they could observe street life and yet not be seen.
