INDIA PRIVATE CAR DRIVER DELHI / AGRA / JAIPUR 1 / 3 The Golden Triangle by Private Car and Driver Six days through Delhi, Agra and Jaipur, with tips for booking a driver Cover image courtesy of India Private Car Driver. Six days is a useful starting point for a first Golden Triangle tour in India. Spend two nights in Delhi, one in Agra and two in Jaipur, then use the last day for your departure or return to Delhi. That plan works best if your arrival and departure times leave enough room for the road journeys. Choose the order around your Agra date Delhi → Agra → Jaipur is a practical route if you land in Delhi and want to finish in Jaipur or return to the capital. Before reserving hotels, check which day you want to see the Taj Mahal. The official visitor website lists Friday as its regular closure day. Check the official Taj Mahal visitor information for your travel dates. Count nights before counting sights A late flight into Delhi makes Day 1 an arrival day. An early flight out of Delhi can also change the final night of the trip. Put your flight details above the itinerary, then build your sightseeing around the time left. INDIA PRIVATE CAR DRIVER DELHI / AGRA / JAIPUR 2 / 3 A six-day route with room to adjust Day 1 · Arrive in Delhi Check in and take a short outing if you feel up to it. A walk or dinner near your hotel is enough after a long flight. Keep any sightseeing flexible until you know when you will reach the city. Day 2 · Explore Delhi Choose a morning in Old Delhi or around Humayun’s Tomb, then plan the rest of the day around the part of the city you are already visiting. If Qutub Minar is a priority, give it a clear place in the schedule rather than squeezing it in before dinner. Day 3 · Drive from Delhi to Agra Make Agra Fort the main visit after arrival if your transfer leaves enough time. Staying overnight gives you a morning in Agra before the next road journey. Day 4 · Visit the Taj Mahal and continue to Jaipur Visit the Taj Mahal before leaving Agra if the schedule and opening arrangements suit. Consider Fatehpur Sikri as an optional stop. Drop it if you want more time in Agra or an earlier arrival in Jaipur. Day 5 · Explore Jaipur Start with Amber Fort, then choose how to spend the afternoon. City Palace and Jantar Mantar suit visitors who want time inside the sites. A walk near Hawa Mahal and the markets is another option if you prefer more time on foot. Day 6 · Depart from Jaipur or return to Delhi Build the last day around your confirmed departure. If you are flying from Delhi, ask your driver for a realistic transfer window. Consider a Delhi overnight if the connection would otherwise be tight.

INDIA PRIVATE CAR DRIVER DELHI / AGRA / JAIPUR 3 / 3 Compare private car quotes against the same route Give each provider your pickup point, final drop-off, travel dates, planned stops and luggage details. Ask for the total for your group and whether the price covers fuel, tolls, parking, driver expenses and any vehicle return charge. Confirm hotels, tickets and local guides separately in the same quotation. If you are comparing a sedan with a larger vehicle, describe the bags as well as the passenger count. A vehicle that seats your group still needs enough space for suitcases. Ask for the exact category and what happens if the vehicle is replaced. For a breakdown of pricing factors, see the private car and driver cost guide for India. Decide what to change if you have fewer days With five days, choose fewer Delhi visits or depart from Jaipur if your onward plans allow it. With seven days, use the additional night where it solves a real problem. That might be a late arrival in Delhi, a short Jaipur stay or a return to Delhi before an early flight. Send a clear enquiry before booking Share your arrival and departure times, group size, bags and the attractions you most want to visit. Ask which days the operator would treat mainly as transfers and which stops are optional. If you plan to continue beyond Jaipur to Jodhpur or Udaipur, use our guide to hiring a private driver in Rajasthan to prepare questions about additional transfers and overnight stops.
