Same Day Agra Tour by Car from Delhi

This full day to Agra was great. I learned so much and got spectacular pictures! I also booked a 2 week private spiritual tour of Northern India and Napal with Discovery Full Circle Tours which was amazingly insightful and fulfilled a dream. I will always be grateful. Thanks so much!

I actually did an overnight tour, where I arrived the evening before (had flown from Bangalore to Delhi, then drove to Agra) and did the tour the following day, with the return to Agra on the 2nd day. My day tour consisted of an excellent visit to the Taj Mahal, the Agra Fort, the Tomb of I'timad-Ud-Daulah, and 2 excellent shops: one with various articles of marble inset with semi-precious stones (similar style to that seen at the Taj Mahal), and one that did fabric hangings inset with semi-precious stones and metallic embroidery. Both shops had unique crafts, had been in the families for generations. My guide for the day was Ashish, and he was as good a photographer as we was a guide. He ensured we had plenty of time to walk all around the monuments, his history was engaging and easily understood, and he was very flexible with what I wished to see. This trip was a solo trip, so it catered to my likes, energy levels, and interests. Certainly worth doing--even if you had to do it all in 1 day. The journey by car is easy, once you are out of the traffic of Delhi--wide, smooth highway between the 2 cities.

I travelled with Discovery Full Circle tours in India Spring of 2019. Chaman and his son were our tour guides and I knew many people who had used this company in the past that recommended them to me. They are very professional and want their travelers to have the best experience possible! Their itinerary was very detailed and organized which was very reassuring! I definitely would recommend them to anyone that wants to see the best sites across India!
