After breakfast drive to Agra, a sojourn spanning around three hours by road. As the vibrant urban tapestry of Delhi fades into the background, the terrain gradually transforms, guiding you towards the storied city of Agra.

Your voyage through Agra commences with a visit to the remarkable Agra Fort. Originally erected by the Lodi Sultans in the 14th century, this fortress underwent a lavish metamorphosis under the stewardship of Mughal Emperor Akbar, becoming a resplendent palace. The fort’s architectural grandeur is exemplified by its intricate marble craftsmanship and elaborate mosaic motifs, a living testament to the opulence that epitomized the Mughal epoch.

After having your breakfast, start your morning by going on a sightseeing tour of Jaipur’s Old City, also known as the Pink City. You’ll visit the City Palace, a huge and sprawling palace that mixes the styles of Rajput and Mughal architecture. It has lovely courtyards and gardens. Right next to it, you can explore the Jantar Mantar, an observatory with interesting instruments from the 18th century. One of these instruments is the Dhruva Yantra, which helps find the North Star and Zodiac signs. Your last stop will be at the Hawa Mahal, often called the Palace of the Winds. This five-story palace, built in 1799 by Sawai Pratap Singh, is very famous in Jaipur. It was made for the ladies of his royal harem.

In the afternoon, go to the airport and take a flight to Delhi. Once you’re in Delhi, you’ll check in at your hotel.

After enjoying your breakfast, head to the airport for a flight lasting about 1.25 hours to Kathmandu, the historic capital of Nepal. Upon arrival, you’ll receive a warm welcome from our Nepalese team and then travel to the pre-arranged Dwarika hotel.

On the third day of your journey, you’ll have the opportunity to explore two remarkable destinations: Bhaktapur and Swyambhunath, also known as the Monkey Temple.

Bhaktapur, is a city steeped in history and rich in culture. As you wander through its ancient streets, you’ll be transported back in time. Bhaktapur is famous for its well-preserved architecture, intricate woodwork, and traditional crafts. The city’s Durbar Square is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a testament to its regal past. You’ll have the chance to marvel at the palace complex, the towering Nyatapola Temple, and the intricate Peacock Window, each representing the artistic mastery of the Newar people.

Swyambhunath, a sacred site perched atop a hill that offers panoramic views of the Kathmandu Valley. This iconic stupa is one of the most important religious sites for both Buddhists and Hindus in Nepal. The stupa’s white dome is adorned with a gold pinnacle that is said to symbolize enlightenment. As you explore the complex, you’ll encounter colorful prayer flags, intricate carvings, and the watchful gaze of the all-seeing eyes of Buddha. Be prepared to share the space with the resident monkeys, which is why Swyambhunath is affectionately known as the Monkey Temple.

According to our flight schedule, there will be some free time available before we head to the airport. During this period, our Nepalese crew will be there to assist us. They will also accompany us to the airport and say their farewells as we embark on our journey back home.
