India’s Golden Triangle features on the bucket list of many travellers. Comprising Delhi, Jaipur, and Agra, each city offers a glimpse into India’s rich cultural heritage, from the bustling streets of Delhi and some of India’s most famous landmarks, the Red Fort and Qutub Minar. Jaipur is known for its palaces and vibrant markets and Agra is home to the world-famous Taj Mahal.
On a long-haul holiday, it makes sense to make the most of the long journey by maximising your time there. On Good Housekeeping’s luxury holiday to India, you can combine a tour of India’s Golden Triangle before boarding a seven-night luxury cruise aboard the Ganges Voyager II to sail the sacred Ganges River, spotting Hindu temples and local villages as you make your way down the river.
You’ll be joined by Atul Kochhar, a Michelin-starred, UK-based chef from Jamshedpur in India who will demonstrate the best of Indian cooking during your trip and join you on a trip to a colourful food market.
