14 Nights 15 Days Golden Triangle Extended Tour
Golden Triangle Extended Tour Overview
The 14 Nights 15 Days Golden Triangle Extended Tour takes the classic Delhi–Agra–Jaipur circuit and keeps going. Instead of returning to Delhi after Jaipur, the journey moves deeper into Rajasthan through Jodhpur and Udaipur, then changes direction completely with Mumbai and the beaches of Goa.
The first five days deliver the landmarks most first-time India travellers expect: Old Delhi, India Gate, Qutub Minar, the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Fatehpur Sikri and Jaipur's Amber Fort. The next stage is slower and more regional. Jodhpur adds Mehrangarh Fort and a Bishnoi Village experience, while Udaipur brings marble palaces, Lake Pichola and the Aravalli hills.
Mumbai introduces a completely different India: busy streets, seafront promenades, colonial-era architecture and one of the country's biggest urban centres. Goa then gives the trip space to breathe. After nearly two weeks of forts, markets and city transfers, the final beach days are deliberately lighter.
This makes the itinerary especially suitable for travellers who want a first India trip with genuine variety rather than a two-week sequence of similar monuments.

- Beach finish: Goa.
Why Choose This 15-Day Extended India Tour?

- Can be customised with premium hotels, private guides and flight upgrades.

Best Time for the Golden Triangle, Rajasthan, Mumbai and Goa
October to March is generally the easiest period for the complete route. Delhi, Agra and Rajasthan are cooler, while Mumbai and Goa are usually more comfortable for outdoor sightseeing and beach time.
December and January mornings can be cold in Delhi and Rajasthan, so pack at least one warm layer even if Goa is expected to be warm.
Goa's monsoon period creates a very different beach experience, with heavier rain and fewer water activities. Travellers visiting specifically for beach time should consider seasonal conditions before booking.
