Itinerary
Prepare for a very early departure time for this 13-hour private excursion from Delhi to Agra. You can choose to be picked up from the airport or your hotel at 2:30am. In your private car, relax and take a seat. It takes roughly three hours to get from Delhi to Agra.
Meet your guide at our meeting location as soon as you arrive in Agra. The Taj Mahal is about 2 minutes away. Here, you may unwind with a welcoming beverage. Also available is the restroom.
You'll arrive to the Taj Mahal, one of the seven wonders of the world, just in time for sunrise. Before you go out with your guide for a tour of the gardens, take a moment to admire the stately palace's magnificent appearance beneath the lovely rising sun. At the Taj Mahal's greatest locations, your guide can help you take pictures. After that, you and your private group may have a morning break at an authentic multi-cuisine Indian restaurant.
Following your tour of the Taj Mahal, you will be taken to the neighbouring Agra Fort, another UNESCO World Heritage Site. This magnificent castle made of red sandstone encloses the imperial palace of the Mughal emperors behind its 2.5 km-long enclosing walls. It has several fairy-tale palaces, including Shah Jahan's marvels the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, audience halls like the Diwan-i-Khas, and two exquisite mosques. You can either visit Itmad-Ud-Daulah Tomb or Agra Fort.
This was the first Mughal mausoleum to be erected on the banks of the Yamuna, which had previously been a series of lovely pleasure gardens. It was also the first to utilise a significant amount of pietra dura. Either Itmad-Ud-Daulah Tomb or Agra Fort are options.
Your final excursion in the city includes free time for souvenir shopping (own expense). The intricate handicrafts and embroidered work produced in Agra are increasingly acknowledged. Visit the site, then have lunch at a nearby eatery (own expense).
Start your return trip by private cars to your selected location in Delhi/ Noida/ Gurgaon/ Jaipur after exploring all these great attractions.

A dream like experience
An amazing experience from start to finish. Aman met me from the hotel at 3am and drove so smoothly I slept the whole way to Agra where we met Mr Rashid at 6:30 just as the sky was beginning to lighten. Mr Rashid was an excellent guide happy to answer any questions but he has that rare talent where he guides the reveal. He slowly guided to each point so that the Taj Mehal was gradually revealed. The Taj Mehul was breathtaking, the Agra fort and the baby Taj as well. One of my favourite pieces was the Chi Walla Mr Rashid took me to, it was the best Masala chi I had while I was in India. I cannot recommend this tour enough it is a great way to see an unforgettable monument. Somehow the whole trip has taken on a dream like quality in my memory and I can’t quite believe that it is real.

Wonderful tour guide
Our tour guide was wonderful. He was very experienced and kind. I cannot say enough good things about him! However, the person that organized the trip was very pushy. I felt that some messages were inappropriate. Then, she asked to meet me (not on the tour). After I did not reply, she started calling. It felt very unprofessional and inappropriate.

Day in Agra
We had a great day visiting Agra and the Taj Mahal. Seeing the Taj Mahal at sunrise was amazing, well worth the drive. It was a very long day, especially getting back to Delhi at rush hour. We were all exhausted. We would have welcomed suggestions of dropping elements to avoid the traffic delays. The guide was very knowledgeable and was very helpful during the day. Breakfast was quite limited in choice but was nice. If in Delhi you have to go to Agra, this is a great, personal way to do this
