Best place
Days 1-2: Delhi
Begin in Old Delhi for maximum sensory impact. The Red Fort is magnificent but what surrounds it — Chandni Chowk's labyrinthine lanes, the Jama Masjid's scale, a rickshaw ride through spice markets — is the real introduction to India.
Best place
Day 3-4: Agra
Take the Gatimaan Express (90 minutes). Go directly to Mehtab Bagh for a sunset view of the Taj. Rise before dawn on Day 4 — the Taj Mahal at sunrise is one of those rare moments that genuinely lives up to every photograph you've ever seen.
