What you can expect

Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Taj Mahal at sunrise, when the soft golden light creates a magical atmosphere, and the crowds are at their lowest. Watching the first rays of the sun illuminate the white Makrana marble is one of the most memorable experiences in India, offering excellent opportunities for photography.
Built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, the Taj Mahal is one of the Seven Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The changing colours of its marble—from soft pink to glowing white—make sunrise the most spectacular time to visit.
Travel comfortably from Delhi in a private air-conditioned vehicle via the Yamuna Motorway, explore the magnificent Agra Fort, admire the exquisite marble inlay craftsmanship that made the Taj Mahal famous, and visit the elegant Itmad-ud-Daulah, often called the “Baby Taj.”
