    Excellent service, fantastic memories made!

    We decided to book the trip on the basis of so many good reviews and we were not let down. From the beginning Showkat was very professional and informative on organising the itinerary. Our driver Amit picked us up from the hotel and whisked us to Jaipur, and Agra. He was a fantastic driver, with expert knowledge and always ensured we were comfortable throughout the trip even helping us shopping for provisions along the way. The company arranged the amazing local guide, Jai Singh for Jaipur. Both Amit and Jai expertly adapted when the weather did not permit the walking tour. We look forward to booking our next India adventure with holiday tours & travels.

    Response from the operator: Dear Jason, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re thrilled to know that you had an excellent experience and made fantastic memories during your Golden Triangle & Varanasi tour. We truly appreciate your kind words about Amit and Jai Singh. We’re glad they helped make your journey comfortable and enjoyable, especially when the weather required some flexibility. Thank you for trusting Holiday Tours & Travels based on our reviews. We look forward to welcoming you back for your next India adventure! Warm Regards, Showkat Wani & Team

    Good tour in a short amount of time but wouldn't recommend the Varanasi tour company

    From first enquiring about the trip Showkat was very helpful and accommodating to us wanting to change the itinerary. Whilst we were on the trip Shariq kept in constant communication with us and our driver Amit was professional, friendly and a safe driver. We selected the four star hotel option and these were of a good quality. We also upgraded to the 1st class night train option which we would recommend, this needs to be reserved as early as possible! Our guided tours of Jaipur and Agra were great, we were surprised not to have a guided tour in Delhi. Our driver in Delhi was good but we didn't get as much information about the sights that we would have got with a guide. The whole reason we booked this specific tour was because it included Varanasi, unfortunately we were disappointed with this part of the tour. It seemed to be with a different tour company and the organisation was chaotic. Our driver/ guide tried his best but spoke limited english, so it was hard to communicate basic information let alone provide detailed information about the sights/ ceremonies we were witnessing. We wouldn't recommend the Varanasi tour company as sadly we didn't get as much value out of it as we had hoped.

    Response from the operator: Dear Anna, Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed the Jaipur and Agra tours, hotels, driver Amit, and our communication throughout the trip. We sincerely apologize for your disappointing experience in Varanasi. We take your comments seriously and will review this with our local team to improve the organization and guide services. Thank you for choosing Holiday Tours and Travels and for helping us improve. Warm Regards, Showkat Wani

    Amazing tour! Amit the best 👍

    We are absolutely satisfied with the experience we had so far. Our driver Amit was fantastic in every single thing... professional, emphatic, flexible and very open to provide suggestions and tips. He guided us through the whole tour and he proved to be very successful in transferring the passion for his job and his country. We highly recommend it for sure! Amazing first time in India, can't wait for more of it! 😊

    Response from the operator: Dear Guest Thank you so much for sharing such a heartfelt review! 🌸 We’re delighted to know that your first experience in India was made so memorable with Amit’s guidance and care. His passion for showcasing India’s beauty truly reflects what we strive for at Holiday Tours and Travels. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him – it will mean a lot! We can’t wait to welcome you back for more incredible journeys across India. Until then, keep the memories alive and stay inspired for your next adventure with us!

    An excellent company!

    There is no way we could have seen all the things we did if we had not used this company. Their service and comms were fantastic, the drivers were very professional and safe, and the hotels were spot on. Next time we would probably swap out the train journeys for flights to make better use of our time. The trains are grotty, but the company have no control over this. I would thoroughly recommend this company. They are really nice people ate very attentive.

    Response from the operator: Dear Mr. Shaun, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with Holiday Tours and Travels! We are delighted to hear that you had a great time and that our services met your expectations. Your feedback motivates us to continue providing exceptional travel experiences and top-notch customer service. If you ever need assistance with future trips, we’d be more than happy to help! We look forward to planning your next adventure with us. Safe travels! Best regards, Showkat Wani Holiday Tours and Travels +91-9999230388

    Amazing tour!

    My trip has been wonderful! Amit is a very kind, professional, and helpful driver. He has taken me to amazing places! I have seen so much beautiful architecture and learned so much about Indian culture and history. I’ve also gotten to eat delicious food! And the hotels have been well-located and very comfortable. As a lone female traveler, I felt very comfortable and safe on this tour. I appreciate all the thought and planning that went into everything. I highly recommend!

    Response from the operator: We’re so happy to know you had a wonderful trip and felt safe and comfortable throughout! Thank you for recommending us — we can’t wait to host you again in India!

    7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.

    How much does 7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $195 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New Delhi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide take?

    +

    Plan for about 168 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New Delhi is not rushed.

    Is 7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 40 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in New Delhi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 168-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide?

    +

    Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New Delhi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New Delhi and add a light layer if any part of the 168-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 7-Day Golden Triangle & Varanasi Tour from Delhi with Guide start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New Delhi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in New Delhi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every New Delhi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Taj Mahal & Agra Private Tour By AC Car From Delhi with 5* Meal, Taj Mahal & Agra Fort Private Day Trip From Delhi with 5* Lunch, Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Baby Taj Day Tour from Delhi by Car. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit New Delhi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in New Delhi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
