About This Tour
Are you short on time but still want to see the Taj Mahal properly? This 3-day Delhi Agra private tour is built for exactly that — enough time to take in Delhi's landmarks and Agra's Mughal monuments, without stretching the trip into a full week.
Arivo Holidays runs this as a fully private tour, with your own vehicle, driver, and an English-speaking guide throughout. From the Taj Mahal at its best to a rickshaw ride through Chandni Chowk's oldest lanes, the pace stays relaxed and the logistics stay off your plate.
Day-by-Day Itinerary
Your Arivo Holidays representative meets you at the airport and takes you straight to your hotel in a private vehicle. Once you've checked in and settled, the evening opens up at Akshardham Temple — the architecture alone is worth the trip, and the musical fountain show after dark makes for a memorable first evening. A short Delhi Metro ride there gives you an easy first taste of local life.
Overnight stay: Delhi
After breakfast, it's a comfortable private drive down to Agra. Your local guide meets you on arrival and walks you straight into the Taj Mahal — the kind of moment that's hard to describe until you're standing in front of it. From there, Agra Fort's red sandstone courtyards and palace halls round out the morning. By late afternoon, you're back on the road to Delhi for the night.
Overnight stay: Delhi
Check out after breakfast and spend your last day taking in Delhi's mix of old and new. Laxmi Narayan Temple and the flower-shaped Lotus Temple open the morning, followed by a rickshaw ride through Chandni Chowk's spice and dry-fruit lanes. The afternoon covers India Gate, a drive past the President's House and Parliament House, Humayun's Tomb, and the towering Qutub Minar. In the evening, Arivo Holidays transfers you to Delhi Airport for your onward flight.
