The Itinerary in Detail
Day 1: From Mumbai to Agra
The adventure kicks off with a pickup from your Mumbai hotel or residence, followed by a private transfer to the airport. Flight times are around 10 am, giving you a leisurely start and the chance to enjoy breakfast onboard. Once you land in New Delhi, a private driver and air-conditioned vehicle whisk you away along the speedy expressway toward Agra.
Arriving in Agra, you’ll check into a luxurious 4-star hotel, where after a delicious lunch, your expert guide awaits for a tour of the Agra Fort and a visit to the vibrant local market. The fort, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a formidable structure with sprawling courtyards, impressive walls, and incredible views over the Yamuna River. Many reviewers comment on the knowledgeable guides, like Manoj, who made history come alive with fascinating details and personal insights.
In the evening, you’ll enjoy a relaxed dinner back at your hotel, preparing for the early start the next day.
Day 2: Unveiling the Taj Mahal at Sunrise
The highlight of the tour is the early morning trip to the Taj Mahal at about 5:30 am. Waking up early might sound tough, but it’s absolutely worth it. As the sun rises, you’ll witness the iconic white marble mausoleum bathed in the soft glow of dawn, perfect for photos. One reviewer describes it as a moment that truly captures the essence of love and grace.
Following the Taj visit, you’ll return to your hotel for breakfast, relax, and then check out. The journey back to Delhi is via the same expressway, with an optional lunch (payable directly). You’ll then be transferred to the airport for your flight back to Mumbai around 4-5 pm, completing a whirlwind but rewarding trip.
