India - 2019 - New Delhi

Spice Jet took us to Cochin, India where we went through immigration and customs. We left Cochin on an Air India flight to New Delhi.

Our hotel is: Hari Piorko located on the main bazaar street. From a travel agency near the hotel, we hired a private car with driver like we did in Sri Lanka for the entire 8 days in India. We will visit New Delhi, Agra, Jaipur and back to New Delhi to wrap up our trip. 


NEW DELHI 

We had two full days to sight see New Delhi before leaving for Agra. Delhi is a big city and has many tourist attractions that spread all over the city. It's also peak tourist season and long lines waiting to get in everywhere we went. Fornutaly, with our own private car and driver, we were able to visit many main attractions in Delhi.
