What's this trip about?

    Three iconic cities in northwest India comprise the world famous Golden Triangle, each with a wealth of cultural and historical splendour. The captivating capital, Delhi, presents a timeline of eclectic architectural styles spanning more than a millennium; the ‘pink city’ of Jaipur mesmerises with its opulent palaces and vibrant bazaars; and Agra’s exquisite Taj Mahal will never be forgotten. The Golden Triangle combines perfectly with a safari stay in Ranthambore, and game drives in search of the majestic, elusive Bengal tiger. Whether you are visiting India for the first time, the second time or once in a lifetime, this is the holiday to choose.

Itinerary

Day 1 London - In flight Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service collects you from home, for your journey to London Heathrow Airport and your direct, scheduled overnight Virgin Atlantic or Jet Airways flight to Delhi. Day 2 Delhi Upon arrival, we transfer to the Grand New Delhi (5T). After a little time for refreshment and relaxation, we head out on an afternoon sightseeing tour of New Delhi, first passing the India Gate memorial, built to commemorate the Indian soldiers who died during the Great War, before continuing to Rashtrapati Bhavan, the official residence of the President of India. Later we continue to Qutab Minar, the tallest brick minaret in the world, and designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Day 3 Delhi - Agra Our morning tour concentrates on Old Delhi, also known as Shah Jahanabad. We visit the great Jama Masjid, the principal mosque of Old Delhi, built in 1656 by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. Later we reach Raj Ghat - the memorial to Mahatma Gandhi - a simple black marble platform that marks the spot of his cremation. Later we visit Humayun's Tomb, the memorial of the Mughal Emperor, Humayun. Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this is the first example of Persian inspired Mughal architecture in India. We drive to the riverside city of Agra in the afternoon, where our hotel for two nights is the Radisson Blu Agra (4T). Day 4 Agra Often described as the greatest monument to love ever created, the Taj Mahal is another grand edifice that dates back to the glory days of India’s Mughal emperors. It took 20,000 skilled labourers to create this mausoleum and memorial to Shah Jahan’s favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal. Some see it as a profoundly sad creation, infused in every stone with grief and loss, others an exuberant celebration of love and life. After a morning dedicated to contemplation of this undoubted wonder of the world, we visit Agra’s imposing fort - a walled city of palaces, mosques, halls and residences occupied for more than 900 years. Day 5 Agra - Ranthambore Our journey continues with a visit to Fatehpur Sikri. As the political capital of the Mughal Empire for a little over a decade in the 16th century, Fatehpur Sikri must have been a breathtaking sight to behold - an architecturally harmonious wonderland of palaces, pavilions, public residences, mosques and parks. But, superseded by a new capital at Lahore - better located for waging war on the Afghan tribes - Fatehpur Sikri remained abandoned and virtually unknown for hundreds of years. Visitors today may appreciate the original buildings in a stunningly-good state of preservation, along with the palpable mystique of a ‘ghost city’. Later, we continue by road to Bharatpur and join our train bound for Sawai Madhopur. On arrival we take the short transfer to Ranthambore National Park. Formerly the private hunting ground of the maharajas of Jaipur, the park is now better known for its 1,000-year-old fort, surrendering slowly to the encroaching jungle, its picturesque turquoise lakes and, of course, its Bengal tiger reserve. Our lodge for two nights is the Ranthambore Regency (3T+) or Jungle Vilas (3T+). Day 6 Ranthambore National Park Two safari drives present the opportunity to spot characterful residents of this wildlife haven, including leopard, monkey, sloth bear and myriad species of bird. The grand prize is a sighting of the Bengal tiger - a greater possibility thanks to the work of the Ranthambore Foundation, which has striven to conserve the forest cover and increase the bodies of water; work which has borne fruit in a tiger population much increased since 1998. Day 7 Ranthambore - Jaipur A third safari drive inspires yet more fond memories of this fine national park and its enchanting residents, and then we drive to Jaipur, popularly known as the ‘pink city’, where our hotel for two nights is the Holiday Inn City Centre (4T+) or LaLit Jaipur (4T+). Day 8 Jaipur A full day tour of Jaipur and its environs reveals why this great city is considered one of India’s foremost cultural attractions. After an early breakfast, we drive up to Amber Fort, as remarkable for the majestic grandeur of its surroundings as for its sturdy battlements and beautiful red sandstone palaces. We tour the hilltop redoubt, then head to the serene foothill lake, where the fort is romantically reflected and where elephants are often seen to bathe. Back in Jaipur itself, the splendid City Palace, an engaging fusion of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture, the 18th century Jantar Mantar observatory, with its huge stone instruments used to study the movement of the constellations, and a view of the stunning Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds), with its instantly recognisable latticed façade, occupy our afternoon. Day 9 Jaipur - Delhi We depart Jaipur for Delhi and a final night at Roseate House (5T) or Holiday Inn Aerocity (4T). Day 10 Delhi - London Our Indian journey at an end, we transfer to Delhi Airport for a direct, scheduled Virgin Atlantic or Jet Airways flight to London Heathrow. On arrival you will be met and guided to your Titan vehicle, for the journey home.

Introducing Titan Travel

Titan will never compromise on quality. We continue to make every effort to ensure that, when you travel with us, you enjoy the holiday of a lifetime, every time. Every individual aspect of your holiday has been carefully considered to deliver the best ratio of quality and value, provide complete peace of mind and yet still satisfy the most adventurous travel spirit. The expert planning, choice of hotels and transportation methods, included excursions and the services of an expert Titan tour manager can really enhance your appreciation of a destination and transform an ordinary holiday into a truly inspiring one.

Many escorted holidays sold by British tour operators originate in the destination and are aimed at the international market, with multilingual commentaries, sweepingly general itineraries and local contracted hotels and tour managers. Titan holidays are different. They are expertly crafted in-house and are only on sale in the UK; our well-travelled product specialists know their destinations inside out and select the best hotels, airlines, trains and cruise vessels. Properly balanced itineraries, most unique to us, are designed to include excursions and visits of particular interest to British travelers as well as a number of free days when there is always a choice of relaxation or enjoyable things to do. And, in the majority of cases, Titan holidays are escorted by the best tour managers in the business.

Exceptional Value

Quality often comes with a price tag and, indeed, Titan has never striven to be the cheapest tour operator. What you get with us though is unparalleled value for money, with a host of inclusions as standard and a range of exclusive offers and discounts.

Traveling in style
With Titan, not only does your holiday begin and end at your front door, it also includes scheduled international flights with world-renowned airlines and the most memorable form of touring transport. Where this is a coach, we look to provide the best available, with air-conditioning, w/c and daily seat rotation in the interests of fairness. But escorted tours are not simply limited to coaches. Titan is one of the UK’s leading rail specialists and a number of our holidays incorporate journeys on iconic trains, that seem to transport you not only through some of the most dramatic and beautiful landscapes in the world, but also back in time to a nostalgic ‘golden age’ of luxurious and stylish travel.

If you are undecided between the elegance and relaxation of a cruise and the enthralling insight of an escorted tour, Titan’s Cruise & Tour® holidays could be a perfect choice. You can cruise with some of the most respected names in the industry, including Fred.Olsen and Holland America, around regions of awe-inspiring beauty and head ashore for an extra land-based touring element. Alternatively, the waterways of Europe, Egypt and China link the most spectacular cultural gems in picturesque fashion and a river cruise is an outstanding way to appreciate wonderful destinations from a different and more relaxed perspective. Our river cruise partners include Uniworld, multi award-winning operator of 5★ boutique river cruises.

Included Excursions
We don’t believe that our holidaymakers should pay extra for optional excursions to experience what are obviously the most important attractions of a country or region. You get much better value if they are included from the start. Unless otherwise stated, every visit mentioned in the tour itinerary is included in the cost of your holiday.

Quality named hotels and lodges
Hotels on Titan holidays are much more than simply a place to sleep at the end of the day. They may place you at the heart of a thrilling city or in a retreat of sublime tranquillity; reflect the character and heritage of a destination or play an integral part in its social scene; present inspiring views or a range of exhilarating experiences. Location and quality are key considerations. At Titan, we always seek to provide the best of both choosing a lower priced holiday based on lower quality, more remote hotels can often be a false economy in the time and money you end up wasting during your stay.

Low or No Single Supplements

We are always looking at ways of minimizing or eliminating our single supplements. A number of tours featured on this website have low or no single supplements to pay.

The UK's best holiday price promise

It has always been a Titan principle that the earlier you book, the lower the price you pay. Our holiday price promise provides complete peace of mind – if we subsequently reduce the price to below what you have already paid (after any discounts have been applied), we will contact you to refund the difference†!

This guarantee applies to tour prices only (excluding all Traveller, by Titan holidays and any selected loyalty rewards we may offer to past travelers from time to time) and does not include airline upgrades, holiday additions, extended stays or regional connecting flights and selected special offer products.
