  • If you want to take in the city and its wonderful architecture, then walking has to be your preferred way to get around. There are loads of sights to see around Agra, and when you walk you can have a look at the snake charmers and street stalls that dot the city. However, it is very hot, so if you are going quite far you should take an auto rickshaw.

    The best way to travel in India.
    Take sleep coach with clean and good beds for long transfer.
    From Agra to Jaipur in second class no AC about 166 Rs

    On the left (Agra train station) can book your seat.

    Agra`s roads are very busy, there is a lot of dust, dirt and pollution in the air and the horns of the vehicles sound almost constantly
    A great deal of care is needed when crossing the roads

    Agra Station. Our return train was about 45minutes late, yet we were only 10mins late upon arrival in Delhi. Agra station was OK, benches to rest your self upon, but the best thing were the water taps. Wash your face and hands. Two girls I met from the Netherlands said that they had never imagined they could get so dusty and their hand so dirty! A nifty thing were also these strips of paper covered in soap that are sold all over the place. So handy they would come in soon...

    The tour was well organized, excellent food - good combination of Indian & western.

    Booked the tour by net, no payment in advance.
    Rates per person: Rs. 1,500
    not including:
    entrance fees Rs. 750 for Taj Mahal, Rs. 250 for Agra Fort

  • We hired an A/C Indica to go to Fatehpur Sikri from Agra. It cost 900 rupees. We gave another 350 rupees to the driver and we had the car for about 12 hours from 10 in the morning till 10 in the night. We went to Fatehpur Sikri, back to Agra, from there to Agra Fort, Sadar Bazaar, back to our hotel Howard Park Plaza and from there to Agra Cantt station in this amount.

    As a thumb rule in Agra, you will have to pay 10 rupees per person for a rickshaw which is the local mode of transport. The minimum is 30 rupees and after that the charges are per person. This is what we observed.

  • For a more aunthentic ride into the Taj Mahal complex, take a donkey or camel ride. Negotiate for the price first before jumping in. Choose from the ones where the animals are healthy and well-treated.
