Overview

Give Agra the time it deserves with an unhurried overnight tour from Delhi. Stay a night in the city of the Taj so you can see the great mausoleum twice — bathed in golden light at sunset and again at sunrise — alongside Agra Fort and the Baby Taj, all privately guided and at a relaxed pace.

Day-by-Day Itinerary

Day 1

Delhi → Agra, Taj Mahal & sunset

After a morning pickup, drive to Agra on the Yamuna Expressway (about 3.5–4 hours). Meet your guide and visit the Taj Mahal in the softer afternoon light — Shah Jahan’s 1632–53 marble mausoleum for Mumtaz Mahal — or watch it glow at sunset from the riverside gardens of Mehtab Bagh. Check in to your hotel for the night.

Today’s highlights
  • Drive Delhi to Agra
  • Taj Mahal in afternoon light
  • Optional Mehtab Bagh sunset view
Overnight: Agra Meals: None
Day 2

Sunrise Taj, Agra Fort & Baby Taj → Delhi

Rise early for the Taj Mahal at sunrise — a magical second look as the marble catches first light. After breakfast, tour the red-sandstone Agra Fort and the exquisite Baby Taj (Itimad-ud-Daulah), then drive back to Delhi, arriving by evening.

What Travellers Say

“Excellent tour with Ashish who is supremely knowledgeable and passionate about the Taj Mahal. He had the whole day planned — pre-booked tickets, fast-track queues — and all the insights on where to get the best photos. Cannot recommend enough.”
