Package Overview

A same-day trip to the Taj Mahal from Delhi offers a quick yet enriching experience, perfect for travelers short on time but eager to explore India’s rich Mughal heritage. The journey begins early in the morning from Delhi or the NCR region, taking you to Agra to visit major landmarks—primarily the Taj Mahal, often followed by Agra Fort and occasionally other nearby attractions. The tour concludes with a return to Delhi by evening.

The drive typically takes 2 to 3 hours each way via the Yamuna Expressway, depending on traffic. Starting early not only helps you avoid crowds and hot weather but also allows for better photography conditions, especially during sunrise tours.

Highlights
Witnessing the breathtaking beauty of the Taj Mahal, particularly in the soft glow of early morning during a sunrise visit.
Exploring the historic Agra Fort, known for its grand courtyards, intricate halls like Diwan-i-Am and Diwan-i-Khas, impressive palaces, and striking red sandstone architecture.
Optionally visiting Itmad-ud-Daulah, often referred to as the “Baby Taj,” admired for its detailed marble inlay craftsmanship.
Enjoying picturesque views of the Taj Mahal from Mehtab Bagh, especially during sunrise or sunset, across the Yamuna River.
Immersing yourself in Agra’s local culture through its cuisine, traditional handicrafts (like marble inlay work), sweet treats such as petha, and bustling local markets.
