Overview

This 12-hour same-day tour begins with an early morning pickup from a hotel in New Delhi and a transfer to Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station. Passengers board the Gatimaan Express, India’s fastest train, for a 90-minute journey to Agra Cantt Railway Station. Upon arrival, a professional guide meets the group and leads the sightseeing tour. The first stop is the Taj Mahal, where visitors spend about two hours exploring the monument with skip-the-line entry included. Next, the tour continues to Agra Fort, also known as Badalgarh Fort, where guests spend around one hour visiting the palaces and gardens made of white marble and red sandstone. Afterward, the group enjoys a buffet lunch with sweets at the 5-star Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Agra. Following lunch, the tour visits Itmad-ud-Daulah, commonly called the Baby Taj, a mausoleum built by Empress Noor Jahan featuring detailed frescoes and inlay work; this visit lasts about 45 minutes. The final sightseeing stop is Mehtab Bagh, a Mughal garden on the bank of the Yamuna River, where visitors spend 30 minutes viewing the Taj Mahal from a quieter location. After sightseeing, the group returns to Agra Cantt Railway Station to board the Gatimaan Express for the 90-minute return trip to New Delhi. Upon arrival at Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station, a chauffeur provides a transfer back to the original pickup point. The tour includes all train tickets, monument entrance fees, air-conditioned transfers, breakfast, lunch, bottled water, and live professional guiding throughout the day in Agra.
