A private day trip from Delhi to Agra and Taj Mahal by car is a popular option for travelers looking to explore the famous UNESCO World Heritage site. Here are some details on what to expect on this type of trip: The distance between Delhi and Agra is approximately 233 km (145 miles), which takes around 3-4 hours by car depending on traffic conditions. Most private day trips start early in the morning, around 6-7 am, to ensure that you have enough time to explore the Taj Mahal and other attractions in Agra. You will typically be picked up from your hotel or a designated meeting point in Delhi and then driven to Agra in a private car with a driver. Some tour operators may offer the option of hiring a tour guide as well. In Agra, the main attraction is the Taj Mahal, a mausoleum made of white marble that was built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Other popular sites include Agra Fort and the tomb of Itimad-ud-Daulah (also known as the "Baby Taj"). After visiting these attractions, you will be driven back to Delhi in the evening, typically arriving around 8-9 pm.
