Private Agra & Fatehpur Sikri Day Tour from Delhi
Experience the highlights of Mughal India on a private full-day journey from Delhi to Agra and Fatehpur Sikri. Travel by private car from your hotel, airport, railway station, residence or another agreed pickup point in Delhi, and enjoy a carefully planned route covering the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and the historic city of Fatehpur Sikri before returning to Delhi.
Begin your sightseeing in Agra with a visit to the magnificent Taj Mahal, one of India’s most celebrated monuments. Walk through its formal gardens and admire the white-marble architecture, intricate decorative details and beautiful setting beside the Yamuna River. Continue to Agra Fort, an impressive Mughal fortress where grand courtyards, palaces and audience halls reveal another side of Agra’s imperial history.
After exploring Agra, continue by road to Fatehpur Sikri, the former Mughal capital established during the reign of Emperor Akbar. Discover its remarkable red-sandstone architecture and explore important landmarks across the historic complex, including its palaces, courtyards, ceremonial buildings and religious monuments. The visit adds a different perspective to the Mughal heritage experienced earlier in Agra.
After completing your sightseeing, begin the return journey to Delhi with your private driver. Drop-off can be arranged at your Delhi hotel, airport, railway station, residence or another agreed location within the city. As this is a full-day road journey, the sightseeing order and travel time may be adjusted according to traffic, monument access, weather and local conditions, helping keep your Agra and Fatehpur Sikri day tour from Delhi comfortable and well paced.

No. Entry tickets are excluded unless they are specifically added to your booking. This keeps the tour flexible for travellers with different ticket preferences.
No. Fatehpur Sikri is around 36–40 km west of Agra, so it is a separate drive after the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort.
