Day 01 : Delhi

Welcome to your journey! In India, we live by the philosophy of ‘Atithi Devo Bhava’—the belief that a guest is an incarnation of the Divine. We are truly honored to have the opportunity to serve you today.

At 09:00 AM, our representative will meet you at your hotel or residence in Delhi to introduce your itinerary. From there, we set out on a full-day exploration of the two distinct souls of this capital city: New Delhi and Old Delhi.

We begin with the architectural wonders of New Delhi. Our first stop is the Qutab Minar, a 72-meter Persian masterpiece, and the ancient Iron Pillar, which has stood for over 1,500 years without a trace of rust.

We then transition into the serene corridors of Lutyens’ Delhi. As we drive through this area, you will witness the scale of the Rashtrapati Bhawan, one of the largest presidential residences in the world, blending Mughal and Western styles. We will also pass the Parliament House and stop at the majestic India Gate, a moving tribute to the bravery of our fallen soldiers.

Before leaving New Delhi, we visit Humayun’s Tomb (1586). Commissioned by Empress Hamida Banu Begum, this UNESCO site is the first true example of Mughal garden-tomb architecture and served as a clear inspiration for the Taj Mahal.

Later, we cross into the walled gates of the Old City. We visit the Jama Masjid (1650), the largest mosque in India, and pay our respects at Raj Ghat, the memorial to Mahatma Gandhi.
