Day 1: Arrival & Agra’s Highlights
Your adventure begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Delhi around 9 AM. Relax during your air-conditioned drive to Agra, where timeless wonders await. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel and freshen up before meeting your knowledgeable guide.
Start the day with a visit to the Tomb of Itmad-ud-Daulah, lovingly called the “Baby Taj.” This exquisite marble structure is renowned for its delicate inlay work and poetic charm. After soaking in its beauty, take a short lunch break (at your own expense) at a multi-cuisine restaurant.
In the afternoon, explore the majestic Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and architectural marvel that narrates the power and legacy of Mughal emperors. Continue to the scenic Mehtab Garden, also known as Sunset Point, where you’ll witness the Taj Mahal glowing in an orange hue as the sun dips below the horizon. The view from across the Yamuna River offers a serene, postcard-perfect moment. Return to your hotel for a restful overnight stay.
Day 2: Sunrise & Optional Excursion
Start your morning early with a 6 AM pickup for a Sunrise Tour of the Taj Mahal. As dawn breaks, watch the white marble transform to soft shades of pink—a truly magical experience. With your guide, explore the mausoleum's intricate interiors, wander through the Gardens of Paradise, and capture envy-inducing photos for your social feed.
After your visit, enjoy a hearty breakfast back at your hotel and recharge for the rest of the day.
