City Tour of Agra With Fatehpur Sikri
- 9:00 am - Pick up from hotel/railway station in Agra and visit the famous Taj Mahal, a Unesco World Heritage Site (closed on Fridays).
- 11:30 am—Visit Agra Fort (A Unesco World Heritage Site). This massive red sandstone fort was built by Emperor Akbar in 1565 A.D. The maze of courtyards, mosques, and private chambers of the fort echo the story of the Mughal Empire.

- 2:00 pm—Drive for an excursion to Fatehpur Sikri (a Unesco World Heritage Site), one hour from Agra. It has been described as “the world’s most perfectly preserved ghost town.” Built by Akbar in the late 16th century, it was abandoned after only 14 years, and the elegant buildings of this superb walled city remain intact to this day.
- 5:00 pm—You may enjoy shopping in Agra, known for its fabulous handicrafts made of marble and softstone inlay work. The Mughals were great patrons of arts and crafts. Empress Nur Jahan took a personal interest and was an accomplished artist in zari embroidery. In addition to inlay work, Agra's major handicraft products include leatherware, brassware, carpets, jewellery, and embroidery.
- 7:00 pm - After a memorable day, transfer to the hotel/railway in Agra.
