A Dazzling Drive
Meet your private driver for a transfer to Agra. Approximate travel time is 5-6 hours with breaks.
This evening, experience Agra in a really special way; the Taj Mahal looks stunning from its grand entry but its benefactor, Emperor Shahjahan felt the best view of the Taj Mahal was from a grassy, crescent-shaped flood plain across the river Yamuna that is known as Mehtab Bagh. It is believed that this garden was built originally by Babur, but later Shahjahan transformed it into a moonlit pleasure garden profuse with white plaster pathways, breezy pavilions, pools and fountains. Today, the plaster pathways, pools, and fountains are not visible however what remains is one of the most spectacular views of the Taj from a less often visited perspective. Enjoy access to this little-known gem and return to your hotel with the help of your guide and driver after you've taken in your fill of the grand, ancient wonder.

AGRA TO DELHI



A Sight To Behold
Immerse yourself in the magic of the Taj Mahal at sunrise, a breathtaking monument to love and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On this morning, you’ll explore this magnificent example of Mughal architecture, entirely crafted from white marble, during a private tour with your personal guide and driver. Start your day early with a morning coffee and prepare for an unforgettable experience as you witness the Taj Mahal at daybreak. The monument's colors shift with the changing sunlight, making sunrise the perfect time to capture stunning photos of this iconic site. Stroll through this opulent structure, commissioned in 1632 by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, who died during childbirth. The mausoleum stands proudly amidst a beautifully manicured garden, and its interior is just as captivating, adorned with intricate inlay work made from precious and semi-precious stones. After this enchanting visit, enjoy a lovely return journey to your hotel.
Today, head to Agra Fort, whose domineering 70 walls can be seen off in the distance from major centers of Agra including the Taj Mahal. The fort is a massive structure with 1.5-mile-long walls that, much like a compound, encompass an astounding collection of well-preserved buildings, many of them completed during the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. Notably, the emperor intended to build a second tomb in Agra - in black marble, a negative image of the white Taj for his wife Mumtaz. Tragically, before he could begin construction, he was deposed by his son and imprisoned in the Agra Fort where he remained until his death, spending the rest of his life looking out along the river to the final resting place of his wife. Although visitors certainly prioritize the more-famous Taj, no trip to the city is complete without an all-encompassing delve into its history and a visit to this famous fort.
