Full description

Prepare for a full day in Agra City, a city of love (the Taj Mahal), history (Agra Fort), and amazing local bazaars with traditional food. Your driver and guide will meet you at your requested location in Agra, from where you will set off for your adventure in a private vehicle. Your guide for the day will begin by briefing you on what your day will be like. They will also provide you with all the information of what you need to bring with you, as well as what is not permitted inside the monuments. Depending on the weather conditions, you will first move to the Taj Mahal, where you will have plenty of time for amazing pictures throughout your memorable visit. You will then be taken for a traditional lunch, containing Indian herbs and spices (both vegetarian and non-vegetarian) in a western standard restaurant. Following lunch, enjoy the local arts and crafts, seeing the traditional art work of Mughals. You will also learn how the Taj Mahal was built, as well as how they decorated the Taj Mahal in the past. Following that, you will be taken to Agra fort: the big and beautiful fort of Mughals. Once there, discover the spot from where the king used to admire the Taj Mahal from Agra Fort, overlooking the River Yamuna. After your Agra Fort visit, you will be taken to Fatehpur Sikri, a town which is about 40 kilometers from Agra (optional). At the conclusion of your tour, your guide will check with you if you wish to see anything else, before they drop you off to your requested location in Agra,

I booked this tour after having purchased my own train tickets from Delhi and wanted an Agra city tour. Ashik was our guide and was gracious and took good care of me. Took me to the main sights and some carpet and marble markets where you can purchase some beautiful handmade items. We then went to a restaurant catered towards foreigners. It’s better to purchase the Gatiman train for both ways as I chose the 6 am departure and by the end of the tour, I had more hours than needed as I didn’t want to go to Fatihpuri. Zahoor was our driver and equally drove safely and had a clean car. Both gentlemen were good and recommended!

This is one of the best tours I have ever taken and after 10 months of travel, that’s saying something!! Shain is an outstanding guide - extremely knowledgeable and a great story teller - we saw amazing sites which were made much more meaningful and memorable through his interpretation. Pick up and drop off at hotel with air conditioned car made this an incredible, fantastic experience. Highly recommended!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏

Had such a good tour to the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort! My tour guide Majid was great. As a women on my own, I felt safe. Majid knew all the best spots for photo opportunities and acted as a photographer as well as guide. I would definitely recommend going earlier for sunrise. The views of the Taj Mahal are incredible. It’s also less crowded and not too hot.
