The journey
Forts, palaces and the Taj at dawn
From the layered chaos of Delhi to the Taj Mahal glowing at first light, then deep into Rajasthan's land of blue cities, honey-gold forts and lake palaces. This is the classic sweep of northern India, a procession of colour, ceremony and Mughal grandeur. Like every journey we make, it's a starting point: tell us what moves you, and we'll shape it around your family, your pace and your budget.
