This Agra Tour takes you to some of the most wonderful heritage sites and landmarks in Agra, Taj mahal, being the highlight of this trip.
Basking in the presence of the glorified tomb that is Taj, the city of Agra seems to have got washed with sheer resplendent white. Taj Mahal, the irrevocable symbol of undying love, ironically is a tomb below which lie the mortal remains of Mughal emperors Shah Jahan and his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal.
One of the most talked-about wonders of the world, Taj Mahal happens to be the ultimate love epitaph that a man could have scripted for his ladylove. So what if the man in question happened to be the infallible emperor of the medieval era?
Love, they say, makes no demarcation between the poor and the rich!
Taj aside, Agra is also the host to vintage bazaars and a few other heritage sites scattered here and there. The crimson Agra Fort offers another shade to the city’s kaleidoscope while the melancholic Yamuna flows by pensively.

Local tour specialists organised a fantastic private tour for our group in August/September 2019. We chose the Golden Triangle with Mumbai itinerary and were able to get the best value.
Having liaised with them via email in the months and weeks ahead of the tour to ensure all our queries were answered, we were greeted at Delhi airport by a representative and our driver without issue. From there we were transferred to our first hotel. We opted for 4 star hotels and overall were happy with the accommodation, although once there we would have liked to be a little more central to restaurants/shops etc outside of the hotel for evenings and free time. Our itinerary overall was pretty busy so not too much bother.
We had different guides in each city who were all welcoming and knowledgeable. The particular highlight was our driver for the golden triangle portion, Mangeram, who went out of his way to keep us happy and share his knowledge and expertise with us. His English was great which also enhanced our experienced since we spent a large amount of time in his company traveling. We felt safe with him and that he was trustworthy - especially important as an all female group.
It would have been good to spend a few more days in Mumbai and to stay somewhere central there.
Overall, I would recommend local guides and drivers, who made us feel welcome at each stage.
So enlightening and enjoyable to experience the country, we were able to enjoy various different aspects of the culture through food, music, dance and many other activities etc which were always available/optional. I know many of our group will certainly be returning to India!
