From Delhi: Taj Mahal & Agra Private Tour with 5* Lunch
Agra in one day can be messy, but this tour keeps it simple with door-to-door pickup and skip-the-line entry to the Taj Mahal. What I like most is the chance to see the big sights with a real local guide (some guides like Faisal Khan and Smith are excellent at explaining details and even helping with great photos), and the comfortable air-conditioned private car for the long drive. One thing to keep in mind: the day is fast-paced and long (about 6–11 hours), and the Taj Mahal is closed every Friday.
