1Taj Mahal
After pickup in Delhi by private vehicle, your day trip begins with the approximate 4-hour drive to Agra, a historical city located on the Yamuna River. Your first stop is Taj Mahal, a World Heritage site and perhaps India’s most iconic landmark. Built in the mid-17th century, this white marble mausoleum was commissioned by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in dedication to his beloved wife Mumtaj Mahal. The construction is believed to have taken 21 years (1632-1653) with over 20,000 artisans working round the clock. Learn about the Turkish, Indian and Persian architectural styles as you admire the detailed interior and exterior décor, the beautiful garden and the general magnificence of the place with your guide.
