What you can expect

Day 01: Amritsar Tour

Begin your exploration as your guide choices you up from your specified location in Amritsar. Your first destination is the revered Golden Temple, the Harmandir Sahib. Marvel at the temple's dome, extravagantly covered in pure gold, a testament to the generosity of Maharaja Ranjit Singh. This temple is a religious symbol and the epicentre of the Sikh faith in India.

Visit the temple's vast community kitchen, acclaimed as the world's largest, where about 100,000 visitors daily partake in a communal meal. Following this, your guide leads you to Jallianwala Bagh, the poignant site of the 1919 massacre by General Dyer.

In the evening, experience the patriotic fervor at the Wagah Border ceremony, a daily display of discipline and pride by the Indian Army. The day concludes with a drive back to your hotel for an overnight stay.

Day 02: Amritsar Tour

After enjoying breakfast at your hotel, the day continues with a visit to the Durgiana Temple. Resembling the architectural style of the Golden Temple, this sanctuary is dedicated to Goddess Durga and surrounded by serene ponds. Founded by Guru Shai Mal Kapoor in 1921, it offers a peaceful retreat.

Next, explore the Maharaja Ranjit Singh Museum, formerly the summer palace of the first Sikh king. This museum houses an extensive collection of artefacts that illuminate the Sikh community's rich history during the 18th and 19th centuries.

As evening approaches, immerse yourself in the bustling markets of Amritsar. Delight in the local crafts, including intricately designed Jutis and vibrant bangles, and savour the flavours of Amritsari culinary specialities like butter-laden naan, kulchey, and Choley Bhature. The journey through Amritsar concludes with a return to your hotel.
