Beyond the Taj mahal
Delhi, Agra & the Taj Mahal and the Indian countryside
Delhi | Taj Mahal | Agra | Chambal | Bateshwar
Discover an alternative to the traditional ‘triangle’ of Delhi, Agra and Jaipur.
Instead of heading for Jaipur we take you ‘left’ and in to Uttar Pradesh and the delightful wildlife resort of Chambal, where new roads ensure that travelling is comfortable from the time you leave Delhi.
Visit and marvel at the Taj Mahal, but afterwards enjoy a unique tour of Agra and leave for the birding lodge of Mela Kothi at Chambal where you can relax, enjoy spectacular birdwatching & other small wildlife on a country boat river journey, take a stroll into the local village and visit fascinating Bateshwar, a riverside village with white painted temples resembling Varanasi, but without the crowds.
Highlights
- Experience New Delhi and Agra
- Marvel at the Taj Mahal
- Chambal River safaris
- Birdwatching
- Interesting villages and village craftsmen at work
- Local street markets
