Your driver will take you to Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station, where you will board the fastest train to Agra.

The train departs from Delhi at 08:10 am and arrives in Agra at 09:50 am. Breakfast will be provided onboard. • The Gatimaan Express is the fastest train and typically runs on schedule, reaching Agra at 09:50 am. Once you arrive at Agra Cantt Railway Station, your tour guide and driver will be there to greet you and welcome you to the city of the Taj Mahal. You will proceed directly to the Taj Mahal with your professional tour guide, who will share details about the city and what to expect during the tour while driving. • The Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the most stunning monuments representing love, built by the 5th Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan for his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who passed away during childbirth in the 17th century. This will involve a two-hour guided tour where your guide will provide insights about the monument. It is advisable to carry your passport or a picture of it on your mobile, as it may be requested for entry into the monument. • Following the visit to the Taj Mahal, the tour guide will escort you to Agra Fort, constructed in 1565 A.D. by the 3rd Mughal Emperor Akbar. This impressive fort is the second UNESCO World Heritage Site following the Taj Mahal.

You will arrive at the station prior to the train's arrival, and the tour guide will assist you in boarding and locating your seat.
