    We will start our tour of North India with a visit to Jama Masjid in Old Delhi. Jama Masjid is one of the largest mosques in India and was built by the great Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in 1650 when Delhi first became the capital of the mughal empire. The main mosque is crowned by three onion shaped domes made of white marble and inlaid with strips of black slate. Jama Masjid also has two minarets made of red sandstone and white marbles which are 40 meters in height. The mosque has great religious significance as it houses a hair from the beard of the Prophet and a chapter of the Holy Quran written by the Prophet.

    Then board a rickshaw to enjoy a ride through the intricate alleys of Chandni Chowk and reach Red Fort.

    Red Fort occupies an area of 120 acres and was also built by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in the mid 17h century. It was the political center of the Mughal empire and served as the main accommodation for successive emperors and their households. It reflects the power and grandeur of the Mughal court. Red Fort remains relevant even today as the seat of power as the prime minister of India addresses the Indian republic on Independence day from the Red Fort every year.

    Later, we continue with our Delhi tour as we proceed to New Delhi and visit India Gate. India Gate is the landmark of New Delhi, situated at the ceremonial axis to the Rashtrapati Bhawan or President’s house. India Gate is a war memorial built to honor the soldiers who had laid their lives during World War 1 and the third Afghan War. It was designed by British architect Edwin Luytens and took ten years to build.

    The parliament building situated nearby is the most important political establishment in India, the world’s largest democratic country. Here members of parliament meet everyday to debate and pass laws for the country and also contains offices of various ministries. This circular imperial style architectural monument comprises of open air verandah and 144 columns.

    Rashtrapati Bhawan is the residential estate of President of India. Rashtrapati Bhawan has 4 stories and 340 rooms. It is famous for the beautiful ‘Mughal gardens’ that are situated at the back of Rashtrapati Bhawan and is open for visitors during February every year.

    Hi Rinki,

    Just wanted to say thank you for all the organisation for our India trip. Everything went very smoothly. Our vehicles, drivers and accommodation were all faultless.

    Look forward to our next trip now whenever that may be.

    I’d like to just comment on one thing… please encourage clients to do Chittorgarh as a day trip. The accommodation there must’ve been really good at some point but is quite run down now. They were lovely and very obliging but when we compare the accommodations it wasn’t the best.

    I know I’d said I wanted a night in Chittorgarh but I wasn’t as conversant with availability there as someone who knows the areas more.

    Thank you once again from my mum, massi and I.

    Best wishes and regards to your team,

    Ps. Next visit we must meet!! 🙂

    Good morning Rinki,
    Emily and I are home now, and we would like to thank you for organising what turned out to be a wonderful trip. We enjoyed visiting all the various places, and the hotels were comfortable. People were very friendly and helpful. The pace of the trip was perfect, travelling but not exhausting. The driver Chandra was very good and I would have no issue with recommending him as a driver. He was very polite, punctual, and courteous. We felt he was a very safe driver, and would like to extend our thanks to him as well. With the benefit of hindsight, I would have stayed an extra day or two in Verkala rather than the extra days in Mumbai, but that is as I say with the benefit of hindsight. Once again, thank you so very much for all your help in organising this trip for us, which we will remember fondly for many years to come.

    Dear StateExpress
    To whom it may concern, we are writing you regarding the package booked with andanitravel for the India golden triangle from the 01/03/2020 to the 11/03/2020. On the 4th of March ’20 the staff from the Sher Gary Resort in Road Village Sherpur, Khilchipur, Rajasthan 322001, Ranthanbore, following the Advise from the Government of Rajasthan, invited us to leave the resort and the State of India as soon as possible due to our Italian Nationality. Immediately we contacted the DCM Italy of Rajasthan, Mr Carini, who told us there was a mistake and the Advise number 27 of the 4th of March 2020 was withdrawn with immediate effect. Although we informed on a timely manner the resort staff, we have been asked to leave anyhow. Only after the DCM Italy informed the resort about the mistake, we have been given the opportunity to leave the resort the following morning. All these difficulties, the constant hostility by the people in India despite the advise number 28, the decision made by the State Express emergency contact( Harish Bhatt) to interrupt our trip and the news regarding the spread of COVID-19 in India, induced us to arrange autonomously for a flight back home as soon as possible. At least but not last we kindly ask you to let us know of any official way to provide a positive feedback to the great support, empathy, help, kindness, professionalism, flexibility and special assistant given by the driver Mr Ashok Yadav in the sphere of his competences.
