From Bundi To Agra Tour
- Meet the tour guide, who will pick you up at your desired place in Bundi.
- Head to Chand Baori, a stepwell built over a thousand years ago in the Abhaneri village of Rajasthan. It is one of the largest step wells globally and one of the most beautiful ones. The Chand Baori is not an easy landmark to find; thus, it is one of the hidden secrets of India! It is a deep four-sided well with a large temple on the back face of the building. Baori consists of 3,500 narrow steps over 13 stories. It extends approximately 30 m (100 ft) into the ground, making it one of India's deepest and largest step wells.
- Visit the next stop, Fatehpur Sikri. See how the dynastic architecture of Fatehpur Sikri was modelled on Timurid forms and styles. The city was built massively and preferably with red sandstone. The city's architecture reflects the Hindu and Muslim forms of domestic architecture popular in India at the time. The remarkable preservation of these original spaces allows modern archaeologists to reconstruct Mughal court life scenes and better understand the hierarchy of the city's royal and noble residents. It is accessed through gates along the 8-km-long fort wall, namely, Delhi Gate, Lal Gate, Agra Gate, Birbal's Gate, Chandanpal Gate, Gwalior Gate, Mehra Gate, Chor Gate and Ajmeri Gate. It contains a summer palace and a winter palace for Queen Jodha.
- Drop off at your residence in Agra.
