Below is the Detailed Itinerary Of Taj Mahal Tour By Train
Your day begins early in the morning as you arrive at New Delhi Railway Station. You will board the
Gatimaan Express (India’s fastest train) or the Shatabdi Express to Agra. Both trains offer
comfortable seating and breakfast, and the ride will take about 1.5 to 2 hours.
These trains are known for their punctuality, cleanliness, and speed, making them the ideal choice for
a smooth start to your journey. You can relax and enjoy the countryside scenery as the train speeds
toward Agra.
Upon arrival at Agra Cantt Railway Station, you will be greeted by a professional guide and driver. They will escort you to your first destination, the Taj Mahal. Agra is a small city, so the Taj Mahal is just a short drive from the station.
Your visit to the Taj Mahal is undoubtedly the highlight of the tour. This majestic white marble
mausoleum, built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, is a symbol of
eternal love. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Taj Mahal is renowned for its intricate Mughal
architecture, symmetrical gardens, and exquisite craftsmanship.
You’ll have plenty of time to explore the site, learn about its history, and take photos from
different vantage points. As the early morning light hits the marble, the Taj Mahal radiates a soft,
golden hue, making it the best time for photography. Your guide will share fascinating stories about
its construction and the labor of love that went into creating this masterpiece.
After visiting the Taj Mahal, you will head to Agra Fort, another UNESCO World Heritage Site. This
massive red sandstone fortress, located just 2.5 km from the Taj Mahal, served as the main residence
of the Mughal emperors for centuries.
Built by Emperor Akbar, Agra Fort is a blend of military and luxurious architecture. You will explore
its palaces, halls, and courtyards, such as Jahangir Mahal, Diwan-i-Aam, and Diwan-i-Khas. From the
fort's ramparts, you can catch another view of the Taj Mahal, offering a unique perspective of the
monument.
After a morning full of exploration, you will enjoy a relaxing lunch at one of Agra’s top restaurants. You can indulge in traditional Mughlai cuisine or opt for an international meal. Your guide will recommend the best spots for an authentic culinary experience.
Next, you will visit either Mehtab Bagh, a serene garden located across the Yamuna River, offering stunning views of the Taj Mahal, or Itmad-ud-Daulah's Tomb (often called the "Baby Taj"). Mehtab Bagh is perfect for photography and peaceful relaxation, while Itmad-ud-Daulah’s intricate marble work is considered a precursor to the Taj Mahal.
Depending on your preferences and time availability, you can either explore Agra’s vibrant local markets, known for their handicrafts, leather goods, and marble inlay work, or take a short drive to the Fatehpur Sikri. This abandoned city was once the capital of the Mughal Empire and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, known for its splendid architecture.
After a full day of sightseeing, you will head back to Agra Railway Station to catch the return train to Delhi. Relax and unwind on the train journey while reflecting on your memorable day in Agra. Tea and snacks will be served onboard.
You will arrive back at New Delhi Railway Station by evening. From here, you can head back to your hotel or explore the city’s evening life. This concludes your Taj Mahal Tour by Train.
