Day-by-day plan

Morning, afternoon and evening structure tuned for groups. Adjust freely in CollabTrip.

  1. Day 1: Arrival, orientation and first group vote

    Start 08:30

    Arrive in Delhi, keep luggage and check-in simple, then choose one low-friction experience such as forts and palaces. Start early for monuments and keep afternoons lighter for food and shopping.

    Track Delhi costs by stay, food, local transport, forts and palaces, optional extras and buffer.

  2. Day 2: Slow final morning and return

    Start 10:00

    Keep the final day in Delhi flexible for one nearby stop, packing, pending payments and return transfers. Close shared expenses before the group splits.
