If you haven't seen the Taj Mahal, you haven't really seen India. And although it's on the opposite side of the country to Goa, it's worth the trip. This private three-day tour takes in the spectacular domed mausoleum and a few other gems along the way.
We'll kick start the journey by catching a plane to Delhi and then we'll head straight to Agra by bus. Then, once you've recharged your batteries in a hotel, you'll be up bright and early for a dawn trip to the Taj. The early morning light filtered through the mist from the river gives the Taj Mahal a soft, ethereal glow, and this is the perfect time for photography.
The tomb of a 17th Century emperor's favourite wife, you'll get a guided tour of the ivory-white masterpiece. Exploring the iconic site and its gardens, you'll spend the rest of the day ticking off more of the region's impressive architecture. Calling by the colossal Agra Fort you'll also visit Fatehpur Sikri – an ancient city crammed with ornate palaces and mosques. And after another night at your hotel, you'll take the road back to Delhi for your return flight to Goa.
