Delhi segment:
You must see the Red Fort, Tomb of Humayun, and Qutub Minar. Though there are few post-independence significant monuments, you can skip them as the history buffs. But, if Indian freedom struggle and British era does tickle your history buds, you should check out India Gate, Birla house, Janpath, parliament, etc. Old Delhi is a great place to shop as well. Chandni Chawk is the best place to see how the real India glows for the bridal shopping, which is the central offering of most shops in this market.
Agra segment:
Most North India tours include Agra for Taj Mahal. The true beauty and the legend around it make it a timeless piece of historical monument. But, a true history lover will visit Agra with a historian or really good travel guide and explore the nuances of this monument and its beauty. But, you must visit Agra Fort and Tomb of Itimad-ud-Daulah. There are so many facets of these historical monuments that you can spend a lifetime imploring the legends, folklore and documents. Agra has a fascinating tale to share with the history lovers. But, champagne at Taj Mahal or the stories session with open-air barbeque tends to be a fun late night for travellers.
Jaipur segment:
This is one of the best holiday packages in entire North India. Though it is a part of Golden Triangle tours, it is a quite self-sufficient holiday package too. The Mughals of New Delhi are just as famous as the Rajputs of Jaipur. The walls of this simple town were drenched with blood at one point of time in history. The best part of this holiday package is stay in heritage hotels of Jaipur. This is your true opportunity to be a royalty. You can live where they did. You can eat what they did and travel where they did. So, get ready to explore the mesmerizing sites likeAmber Fort, Jaigarh Fort,Nahargarh Fort, HawaMahal, City Palace, Mubarak Mahal, GovindDevji Temple, JalMahal, Lakshmi Narayan Temple, JantarMantar, Ram Niwas Garden, and more.
