The best Golden Triangle tour with heritage hotels is our Heritage palace journey: eight days through Delhi, Samode, Jaipur and Agra with your own car and driver and a licensed guide, from $460 per person, two travellers sharing. Hotels are arranged by category, heritage palace or five-star, never promised by name.
Heritage hotels are old palaces and havelis turned into places to stay. Many travellers choose the Golden Triangle partly for the nights, not just the days.
We ranked journeys that give those nights room, with enough days in each place to enjoy the hotel and not only sleep there. We arrange by category and discuss the options when we plan.
