Full description

After the Taj Mahal, continue to Agra Fort. This imposing red sandstone fort was built by Emperor Akbar in 1565 AD. Admire its mix of Hindu and Central Asian architectural styles. Then, take a break for breakfast or lunch at a restaurant. Enjoy a mouth-watering meal of local and international flavors (if lunch option selected). Next, move on to the elephant conservation park.

We decided to book an early morning departure to be able to enjoy the sunrise experience at Taj Mahal - It was the best decision we could’ve made because the place was not so crowdy. The whole trip was one awesome experience thanks to our extremely kind and friendly guide Mohammad. He was sharing a lot of interesting information throughout our tour around Taj Mahal and Agra Forest, making it enjoyable and in depth when it comes to knowledge and local vibes. He knows his way around the places, knows a lot about the history and other interesting facts. We enjoyed the whole tour which was followed by awesome breakfast where Mohammad helped with translation so we could enjoy our breakfast to the fullest. Overall great experience, I highly recommend!
