Itinerary:
- Morning 6 AM (Recommended pick-up time, subject to weather conditions): Depart for Agra via the Yamuna Expressway (3-4 hours drive) – a top-notch expressway connecting Delhi and Agra. Along the way, you’ll find clean rest stops offering restrooms, fuel, emergency first-aid, and hygienic food options.
- Upon arrival in Agra, your driver will introduce you to a government-licensed local guide (timing adjusted for sunlight). Your first stop will be the masterpiece of love – the world-famous Taj Mahal. This symmetrical wonder took 22 years (1630–1652) and 20,000 artisans to complete. The guide will assist you in obtaining tickets, including a water bottle and shoe cover. A comprehensive Taj Mahal Tour typically spans 2-3 hours (you can take your time), and you’ll return to the parking area via Golf Cart.
- Following the Taj Mahal tour, head to Agra Fort. This fort exemplifies Mughal architecture and showcases the architectural differences between North and South Indian forts.
- After the fort tour, your driver will recommend one of Agra’s finest restaurants for an authentic Indian meal (reservation recommended).
- Next, visit I’timad-Ud-Daulah (Baby Taj) after savoring the flavors of Indian cuisine.
- I’timad-Ud-Daulah, situated on the Yamuna’s left bank, features mausoleums set amidst a sprawling cruciform garden. After your Baby Taj tour, you will have completed the Agra sightseeing experience.
- If time allows, en-route back to Delhi, you can visit the exquisite Hindu Akshardham Temple on the Delhi border.
- Finally, conclude your journey with a drop-off at your Hotel or the Airport, based on your planned itinerary.
