Delhi and Agra tour from Kangra by car
Four to five days from Kangra covering Delhi and the Taj at Agra, with Fatehpur Sikri on the same run. Kangra to Delhi is about 480 km, ten to eleven hours, which most people prefer to do overnight. The Taj is closed on Fridays, so we build the plan around your dates. Send them to Kapil on +91 98053 05643 or Sahil on +91 78075 42573.

About the trip
The capital and the Taj, without the train scramble.
Delhi wears every century at once — Mughal forts and tombs, a Lutyens capital of broad avenues, and bazaars that have traded for four hundred years. We drive you down from Kangra and give you two unhurried days to take in both the old city and the new.
Then it is on to Agra, three hours south, for the Taj Mahal, the red-sandstone Agra Fort and the abandoned Mughal capital at Fatehpur Sikri. One car and one driver carry you the whole loop and home again.
How it runs from here: ten to eleven hours down to Delhi, so we start before dawn or break it at Chandigarh depending on your group. Delhi's real constraint is traffic rather than distance — we plan each day around one half of the city instead of criss-crossing it. Agra is three hours further; the Taj is best at sunrise and shut on Fridays, which is the single most common thing travellers get caught by, so we fix the itinerary around that first.
What you’ll see
- Taj Mahal at sunrise, Agra
- Agra Fort & Mehtab Bagh
- Fatehpur Sikri, the ghost capital
- Red Fort, Jama Masjid & Chandni Chowk
- Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb & India Gate
- Akshardham & the Lotus Temple
The plan we run
Day by day.
Day 1 — Day 5
The Taj is shut on Fridays — we build the plan around your dates so that never catches you. Delhi also runs an odd-even and pollution-season restriction from time to time; our permits cover it.

Good to know
Delhi & Agra — questions travellers ask
How long does the Kangra to Delhi and Agra trip take?
Four to five days is comfortable — two days for Delhi's old and new city, a day for the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort, Fatehpur Sikri on the way back, and the drive each way. If you only want the Taj we can do a shorter Kangra–Agra run; if you want to add Jaipur it becomes the Golden Triangle.
Is the Taj Mahal closed on any day?
Yes — the Taj Mahal is closed every Friday. We plan the Agra day around that, and aim your visit for sunrise or the calmer late afternoon when the marble glows and the crowds thin. Agra Fort and Fatehpur Sikri stay open through the week.
Can you pick us up from Delhi airport or railway station instead?
Yes. If you are flying or taking the train into Delhi, we can meet you at the airport or station and run the Delhi–Agra loop from there, then drop you back — or drive you on up to Kangra. Tell us your arrival and we time everything to your flight or train.
What is the best season for Delhi and Agra?
October to March, when the plains are pleasant and mornings are cool and clear for the Taj. May and June are very hot and the monsoon humid. Winter mornings can be foggy, so we keep the Agra timings flexible.
What is the best time for a Delhi and Agra trip?
October to March. April to June the plains heat is punishing and the Taj is unpleasant by mid-morning; July to September is humid. Whatever your dates, remember the Taj Mahal is closed on Fridays — we build the plan around that.

We’ll beat it — and on the rare trip where we honestly can’t, we’ll tell you straight instead of wasting your day.
