Itinerary
Get picked up from anywhere in Agra between 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Then, visit Taj Mahal. It is the iconic symbol of love, dedicated by Mughal Emperor Shahjahan to his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. Taj Mahal is one of the seven Wonders of the World and also a renowned UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is a stunning beauty of 17th century.
Agra Fort is another UNESCO World Heritage site which is a beautiful pavilion built in the 16th century. Agra Fort was the Mughal residence until the capital shifted to Delhi. It is accurately called the walled city since the 16th century. The Agra Fort also played an important role in the Sherlock Homes mystery known as ' The Sign of the Four'.
It consists of different gardens and outbuildings. This tomb is famous for the stone inlay that is made out of wine glasses with perfect geometric structure. When you enter the monument, you would find a red stone arch that welcomes you to this baby Taj.
Pass by: Last but not the least, visit Mehtab Bagh. The backside view of the Taj Mahal.

Custom Taj Tour
Great tour company, very accommodating even though we had a few changes to the itinerary. Amam was a nice tour guide for the Taj Mahal.
Excellent
I hired three transfers (New Delhi - Agra - Jaipur - New Delhi) and a guided tour in Agra, and it was amazing! Punctuality, excellent communication and compliance of the combined. I mention the excellent work of Ramón, our guide in Agra.
Great experience
Nasir was a great guide and we had an amazing experience seeing Taj Mahal and baby Taj in Agra. My husband and I had a great time.
Agra tour
Nasir was a great guide! He showed us around the major sites- Taj Mahal, baby Taj and red fort. He had patience through the whole process and explained history and detail behind each monument. I recommend him with foreigners as he speaks multiple languages as well.
Poor, rushed guide experience. Saw much better ones.
I booked with Get Your Guide and was thoroughly disappointed by the whole experience. I booked a 4 site excursion of the Taj Mahal, the Baby Taj, the Red Fort and Mehtab Bagh over 7hours We didn't even go to Mehtab Bagh. The tour was finished after 3 and a half hours. My tour guide just simply couldn't be bothered. He was walking off, taking calls on his phone constantly, walking ahead (see photo) and rushing me around. I'm very upset. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the Taj Mahal and I was rushed through and at one point had to ask a tourist to take a photo of me. If you've got 7hours allocated to it, there's no harm in taking time to just sit and look. Even in the queue, other guides were standing talking to their customers, mine went and sat at a coffee stand. The Red Fort and the Baby Taj were similar - just a rushed walk round, him saying he'd "watch my shoes" as an excuse to sit on his phone and me having to ask for photos to be taken. At the Baby Taj, my guide asked me to complete the feedback in front of him before we left. I said no because I'm not being intimidated into giving false feedback. I have contacted the company and other than a quick apology text had nothing back. My one opportunity to see the Taj Mahal was ruined by being rushed, not being allowed to sit and enjoy it and feeling like a hindrance asking for photos. I would suggest you use another firm because this one just take your money and treat you poorly.
