Delhi acts as the prime source city for tourists from all over the world who wish to feel the mesmerizing beauty of Taj Mahal in Agra. Many car rental service providers offer Agra same day tour from Delhi to such tourists. Car hire is the most convenient option for anyone who seeks to explore historic city Agra.
Generally car rental service providers come up with slick itinerary so that Agra excursion can be completed in a day. They make it sure that all the top spots are touched. In the morning tourists are picked up from the location of their choice to begin car trip for Agra. Around 11 am they reach Agra and go directly to Taj Mahal. It is one of the most glorious monuments built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in the 16th century in the memory of his beloved wife Mumtaj Mahal. Made with pure white marble the monument takes on different coloring at different times of the day. It is believed that the changing color resembles the changing mood of the Emperor's queen.
After spending some time at Taj they can proceed towards Agra Fort which is a UNESCO world heritage site and built with red sandstone. It was built primarily as a military structure by Akbar but was later transformed into a palace by his son Shah Jahan. In the octagonal tower, ‘Mussaman Burj’ of Fort Shah Jahan was imprisoned by his son where he died.
After lunch, the tourists can move towards Baby Taj, ItimÄd-ud-Daulah which is a Mughal mausoleum and very beautiful red sandstone building. Itmad-ud-Daulah means ‘Pillar of the Government’. It is delicate in appearance due to extensive use of finely carved marble lattice screens. But, obviously, it is not as stunning as Taj.
From here, the tourists can return back to Delhi at their preferred location. Car hire make the whole excursion memorable.
