Day by day itinerary

  1. 1Delhi / Agra⌄

    This morning you will be picked up at your hotel in New Delhi and driven to Agra, the last capital of the Mughal Empire (about 5 hours).Once you reach Agra, your first visit will be to the 16th century Agra Fort with its battlements, apartments, gardens and audience halls. The Red Fort of Agra is a powerful fortress built of red sandstone. It was the imperial city of the Mughal rulers.  Within the Fort, you will find many fairy tale palaces, such as the Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal - built by Shah Jahan. Also view audience halls, such as the Diwan-i-Khas as well as two very beautiful mosques.

    You will then travel about 1.5 miles to visit the magnificent Taj Mahal often thought of as a “Monument to Love”.  Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan built this monument in memory of his favorite wife Mumtaz Mahal. The Taj Mahal is an immense mausoleum of beautiful white marble with inlaid precious stones built between 1631 and 1648.  It is the jewel of Muslim art in India and considered to be one of the most impressive architectural masterpieces in the world.  As you tour the famed landmark you will have an opportunity to witness the transformation as the monument is bathed in the warm glow of sunset. Kindly Note : Hotel check in time 1400 Hours

    Overnight: Overnight stay

  2. 2Agra / Fatehpur Sikri / Delhi⌄

    In the early morning, we will go to Metab Bagh, a garden  across the river from the Taj Mahal.  Here, you will watch the changing colors as the rising sun reflects on this beautiful monument.

    Later this morning, we will leave Agra and visit the abandoned Mughal city of Fatehpur Sikri (City of Victory).  This amazing city, a masterpiece of Muslim, Hindu and Jain architecture, was built by Akbar the Great in the 16th century. Comprised predominantly of red-sandstone buildings that sprawl over a huge area, the architectural style of the city is very much in tune with Akbar’s vision. A shortage of water was one of the main reasons the site was abandoned. After visiting Fatehpur Sikri, you will continue on to Delhi, where you will be dropped off at your hotel.  Kindly Note : Hotel check out time 1200 Hours
