Day 1: Delhi to Agra – Arrival & Architectural Wonders
Morning: Departure from Delhi
Your luxury adventure begins with a private chauffeur-driven car or an express train like the Gatimaan Express from New Delhi. Sit back and relax with in-car refreshments or a premium breakfast onboard. Expect a smooth and stylish journey lasting just 2–3 hours.
Mid-Morning: Arrival in Agra & Check-In
Upon arrival, you’ll be escorted to one of Agra’s top-tier hotels—such as The Oberoi Amarvilas, where every room boasts a view of the Taj Mahal. A warm traditional welcome with flowers, aarti, and a refreshing drink sets the tone for your regal stay.

After some rest, step into the grandeur of Agra Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Your expert guide (optional luxury add-on) will take you through its palaces, courtyards, and stories of Mughal intrigue.
