Day Trip from Delhi : Taj Mahal & Agra Fort.

Pick up from Delhi at your preferred location in the morning and drive towards Agra via the Yamuna Expressway, a smooth and comfortable 3–4 hour journey.

Upon arrival in Agra, meet your guide and head straight to the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Marvel at its stunning white marble structure, built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. Explore its intricate carvings, symmetrical gardens, and the serene Yamuna River backdrop, while your guide shares fascinating stories of its history and architecture.

After visiting the Taj Mahal, take a short break and enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, where you can savor Mughlai delicacies. Post-lunch, proceed to Agra Fort, an architectural masterpiece that once served as the main residence of the Mughal emperors. Walk through its magnificent courtyards, royal halls, and impressive gates, including the Diwan-i-Aam, Diwan-i-Khas, and the beautiful Jahangir’s Palace. Learn about the fort’s history, its strategic importance, and how Emperor Shah Jahan spent his final years here, gazing at the Taj Mahal from the fort’s balcony. If time permits, explore local markets for souvenirs such as marble inlay handicrafts and traditional Mughal-inspired artifacts.

Later, begin your return journey to Delhi via the expressway, concluding your memorable day tour with a drop-off at your desired location.
