From Delhi: Private 2-Day Taj Mahal & Agra Overnight Tour. Visit the Taj Mahal around sunrise with your private guide.

Begin with private pickup from your hotel, residence, or airport anywhere across Delhi NCR, including Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad. Airport pickup is also available from Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport, Hindon Airport in Ghaziabad, and Noida International Airport in Jewar.

Choose a flexible pickup time between 5:00 AM and 11:00 AM, then travel approximately 3.5 hours to Agra via the Yamuna Expressway in a private air-conditioned car. A short comfort or refreshment stop can be arranged along the way if required.

On arrival in Agra, meet your private guide and begin the first day of sightseeing. Depending on your pickup time, you may pause for an optional breakfast or lunch at a local multi-cuisine restaurant or premium hotel restaurant before continuing.

Visit Mehtab Bagh, the riverside Mughal garden located directly opposite the Taj Mahal across the Yamuna River. Enjoy peaceful views of the monument and photograph the Taj Mahal in the softer evening light as the sun begins to set.

After completing the Day 1 sightseeing, transfer to your selected hotel in Agra and check in. Spend the evening at leisure and relax before the early start the following morning.

On Day 2, begin with an early-morning visit to the Taj Mahal around sunrise. Explore the monument with your private guide while learning about Emperor Shah Jahan, Mumtaz Mahal, Mughal architecture, white-marble craftsmanship, decorative inlay work, landscaped gardens, and the story behind one of India’s most recognised landmarks.

After the Taj Mahal visit, return to your hotel for breakfast, if included with your selected hotel option, and complete check-out before continuing the sightseeing.

Continue to Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built under Emperor Akbar. Walk through its fortified gateways, royal courtyards, audience halls, and former palace areas while your guide explains the history of the Mughal emperors who lived there.

Next, visit the Tomb of Itmad-ud-Daula, commonly known as the Baby Taj. Admire its delicate white-marble architecture, intricate inlay work, carved lattice screens, and peaceful Persian-style gardens beside the Yamuna River.

After completing the Agra sightseeing, relax during the approximately 3.5-hour return drive to Delhi in your private air-conditioned vehicle.

Drop-off is available at your chosen hotel, residence, or airport anywhere across Delhi NCR. The exact return time depends on your pickup time, traffic conditions, monument queues, meal stops, hotel check-out, and sightseeing pace.
