Itinerary
Tap any day to open its full route — 10 stops in total.
Day 1Delhi → Agra5 stops
Pickup from Delhi NCR
Pickup is available from any hotel, residence, railway station, or airport in Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, Gurgaon (Gurugram), Ghaziabad, or Faridabad — including Delhi (IGI) Airport, Hindon Airport in Ghaziabad, and Noida International Airport in Jewar. You may choose any pickup time from 2:30 AM to 12:00 noon.
Drive to Agra
Travel to Agra via the Yamuna Expressway — a comfortable drive of around 3.5 hours in a private air-conditioned car.
Lunch on Arrival
On reaching Agra, stop for lunch at a restaurant of your choice (optional add-on) before the afternoon’s sightseeing.
Mehtab Bagh — Sunset View of the Taj Mahal
Visit Mehtab Bagh, the riverside garden directly across the Yamuna from the Taj Mahal. It offers a serene view of the monument in the soft light of late afternoon — a favorite spot for photographs.
Hotel Check-in
Check in to your hotel in Agra — in the 3-Star, 4-Star, or 5-Star tier you have selected — and spend the evening at leisure. (The Without Hotel option does not include accommodation.)
Day 2Agra → Delhi5 stops
Visit the Taj Mahal
Your guide meets you at the Taj Mahal for an early sunrise visit. Built by Emperor Shah Jahan in 1632 in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, the white marble glows in the soft morning light — one of the most breathtaking sights in the world. Your guide shares its history and helps you photograph it from every angle.
A note on Friday visits
The Taj Mahal interior is closed every Friday for prayer. If Day 2 of your tour falls on a Friday — for example, a Thursday arrival — the Taj Mahal is visited on Day 1 afternoon instead, and Day 2 covers Agra Fort and the Baby Taj. Your itinerary is re-sequenced accordingly.
Hotel Breakfast & Check-out
Return to your hotel for breakfast and check out. (Breakfast is included with the 3-Star, 4-Star, and 5-Star options.)
Visit Agra Fort — UNESCO World Heritage Site
Explore the majestic Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built by Emperor Akbar in 1573. Walk through its grand courtyards, palaces, and halls, and enjoy a view of the Taj Mahal from its ramparts.
Visit Baby Taj — Tomb of Itimad-ud-Daulah
Visit the exquisite Baby Taj, commissioned by Noor Jahan for her father Ghiyas Beg. Its delicate marble inlay work and Persian gardens are considered a jewel of Mughal architecture.
Fatehpur Sikri (Optional Visit)
Fatehpur Sikri is a beautiful UNESCO-listed Mughal city near Agra. It is offered as an optional add-on rather than a standard inclusion because the site requires a separate entry ticket, a shared shuttle bus from the parking lot, and a local government-approved guide — all of which add cost. It can be added to Day 2 on the way back; please request it at the time of booking. The drive from Agra is approximately 1 hour each way, plus around 45 minutes visiting the site — approximately 3 hours in total added to the day.
Drive Back to Delhi
After sightseeing, relax during the 3.5-hour drive back to Delhi via the Yamuna Expressway. Drop-off is at any hotel, residence, railway station, or airport in Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, Gurgaon (Gurugram), Ghaziabad, or Faridabad — including Delhi (IGI) Airport, Hindon Airport in Ghaziabad, and Noida International Airport in Jewar.
