Description

Discover the iconic Taj Mahal, explore the historic Agra Fort, and visit the charming Baby Taj on a full-day tour from Jaipur. Experience the beauty and rich heritage of Agra with expert guides.
1. Taj Mahal:
Your tour begins with an early morning visit to the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. This iconic white marble mausoleum was built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. The breathtaking beauty of the Taj is best experienced at sunrise when the monument is bathed in a golden glow. Learn about its rich history, intricate Mughal architecture, and the love story that inspired its creation.

2. Agra Fort:
Next, visit the majestic Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and another masterpiece of Mughal architecture. Built by Emperor Akbar in the 16th century, this red sandstone fort served as the main residence of the Mughal emperors. Inside the fort, explore structures like the Diwan-i-Am (Hall of Public Audience), Diwan-i-Khas (Hall of Private Audience), Jahangir’s Palace, and Sheesh Mahal (Mirror Palace). The fort’s vantage points offer panoramic views of the Taj Mahal across the Yamuna River.

3. Baby Taj (Tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah):
Conclude your tour with a visit to the exquisite Baby Taj, formally known as the Tomb of I'timād-ud-Daulah. This smaller yet intricately designed mausoleum is often regarded as the draft or inspiration for the Taj Mahal. Built by Empress Nur Jahan for her father, the Baby Taj features delicate marble inlay work and stunning architecture, making it a jewel of Mughal artistry.
