Destination : AGRA
You will drive from Delhi to Agra, 245 km, 4 hours. Depending on your time and wishes, you will visit Itamad-ud-Daula, also called the Baby Taj Mahal, right at the Yamuna River. The main attraction is the breathtaking Taj Mahal, a perfect marble mausoleum built by the mughal emperor Shah Jahan for his favoured wife. It is very beautiful in sunset, so we recommend visiting before breakfast, and we will also show you the wonderful view from opposite the river. The Red Fort in Agra is also worth a visit, which you should not miss.
If you have two days, on the way back to Delhi (230 km, 6 hours) you can stop at UNESCO’s ghost city, Fatehpur Sikari. It is said that this was the most beautiful city ever built, but due to water supply problems it was soon after abandoned.
