You will be picked up from your hotel by private chauffeur at 6am for the tour. Upon arrival in Agra, your first stop will be at the magnificent Taj Mahal, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the treasure of Mughal architecture. The Taj Mahal is perhaps the most photographed monument in the world. The perfect time to visit Taj Mahal is when you can witness magical reflections of the rising sun on its white marble.
After Taj Mahal you will continue your tour to the massive Agra Fort. Built by the Emperor Akbar, the buildings inside the fort reflect an interesting fusion of Hindu and Central Asian architectural styles. A maze of courtyards, mosques and private chambers of the fort tell the story of the Mughal Empire. Later on we will take a break to have an exquisite Indian lunch (at own expense).
After lunch you will be transferred to Baby Taj, Tomb of Itmad-ud-Daulah, situated on the opposite bank of the Yamuna. Built between 1622 and 1628 by Empress Nur Jahan for her father, the mausoleum is often described as a jewel box. Admire the trellis work and precious stones as you listen to your guides commentary and learn about strong Persian influence on the tombs design.
In the evening you will visit Mahtab Bagh. The Moonlight Garden was an extension of the Taj Mahal Garden, located on the other side of the river. The octagonal pool and the pavilion around it are in splendid condition. Originally, the garden was planted with fragrant flowers and used as a viewpoint on the Taj Mahal, that would reflect in its pool and the river.
At the end of the tour you will be transferred back to your Delhi hotel.

Una experiencia muy bonita. Es un lugar increíble. El tour incluyo un guía y fue muy atento, y muy profesional. Sabia exactamente la historia y nos explicaba muchos detalles de cada lugar, también nos hacia sugerencias de cosas que podíamos hacer. Nos ofrecieron visitar muchos lugares pero ya estábamos cansados y fuimos nosotros los que acortamos el tour, pero todo fue muy excelente. Fueron muy puntuales al recogernos en el Hotel y también nos dejaron en el hotel al terminar el tour. Definitivamente recomendamos este tour. Lo único que no nos gusto es que cuando buscamos el tour decia que costaba 37.50 y cuando hicimos el pago final ya era otra cantidad. Tengan presente que en cada lugar hay que pagar nuestra propia entrada porque eso no esta incluido en el tour.

Recently, I traveled to Delhi for work with three colelagues who had never been to India. Well, you can't travel that far without seeing the Taj Mahal. I'm so glad that I was able to take them and this was perfect. The company that Viator contracted, Akbran Tours was awesome. They were so flexible with our itinerary and alllowed us to move at our own pace and really make it exactly what we wanted. The guide was excellent and he showed us some excellent shopping places as well. We enjoyed it so much that I assisted another colleague in booking a day trip to the Taj Mahal with them as well. Needless to say, he loved it! The owner/operator of Akbran Tours was very helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending this trip to anyone that is going to Delhi and wants to maximize their time and see the Taj Mahal.
