🕌🇮🇳 Planning the Golden Triangle Tour (Delhi, Agra, Jaipur) from France 🇫🇷

The Golden Triangle is India’s most popular travel circuit and an ideal introduction for first-time French tourists. This route combines Mughal grandeur, Rajput elegance, and modern Indian life, all within a manageable 6–8 day trip.

  • Flight Time: ~8 to 9 hours

  • Best Months to Travel: October to March (pleasant weather)

📜 Step 2: Visa & Entry Requirements

  • Type: e-Tourist Visa (30-day, 1-year, or 5-year options)

  • Apply Online: https://indianvisaonline.gov.in

  • Required: Passport scan, photo, travel details

  • Approval Time: 3–5 working days

💡 Tip: Print your e-Visa before boarding your flight.

🗺️ Step 3: Ideal Golden Triangle Itinerary (6–8 Days)
