Delhi, Agra and Varanasi Tour Packages: how this trip works
This circuit swaps Jaipur's palaces for Varanasi, the oldest living city in the Ganga plain. It suits travellers who want the Taj Mahal and the spiritual side of India in one trip.
Varanasi is far from Agra, so a flight or an overnight train usually joins the two halves.
The route at a glance
| Stop | Suggested nights | Why it is on the route |
|---|---|---|
| Delhi | 2 | Old and New Delhi. |
| Agra | 1 | The Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. |
| Varanasi | 2 to 3 | Ghats, the evening Ganga aarti and Sarnath. |
Total: 6 to 7 nights. Adjust the split to your dates and pace.
How the legs connect
Delhi and Agra
About three to four hours by road or a fast train.
Agra or Delhi to Varanasi
There are flights of roughly one and a half hours from Delhi, and trains that take most of a night or a day. Check the current options.
Varanasi local
The ghats are best explored on foot and by boat; narrow lanes make cars useless in the old city.
Schedules, rules and fees change. Treat this as a planning guide and confirm current details with your agent.
When to go
October to March is best. Winter fog between December and January can delay Varanasi flights and trains, so avoid tight connections.
