Tour Itinerary
Your adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel or chosen spot in Delhi/NCR. You'll be greeted by your driver, who will take you in a comfortable, air-conditioned car. Get ready for a 3.5 to 4-hour drive along the Yamuna Expressway, one of India's finest highways.
You’ll arrive in Agra just in time to catch the stunning sunrise. Here, you’ll meet your friendly guide, who will lead you to the iconic Taj Mahal.
As you step through the gates of the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, you’ll witness the first rays of sunlight illuminating its magnificent white marble. The colors of dawn—pink, orange, and gold—create a magical atmosphere. Your guide will share the beautiful love story of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz Mahal, adding a personal touch to this breathtaking sight.
After soaking in the beauty of the Taj Mahal, it’s time to refuel with a delicious breakfast at one of Agra’s popular local spots, where you can choose from a variety of Indian and continental dishes.
Next up is the Agra Fort, a grand 16th-century fortress made of red sandstone that once served as the Mughal emperors' royal residence. Wander through its impressive palaces, courtyards, and towers while your guide shares intriguing stories from history.
Your journey continues to the lovely Itmad-ud-Daulah’s Tomb, affectionately known as the Baby Taj. This exquisite marble mausoleum is a beautiful precursor to the Taj Mahal, featuring delicate inlay work and peaceful gardens.
After a fulfilling morning of sightseeing, sit back and relax as you make your way back to Delhi.
