If you want to get more details about the tour, including the best time to visit and popular places to explore, we highly recommend reading this blog.
How to Reach Agra
The best way to plan your Agra tour is to fly to Delhi, the national capital, and then head on an adventurous road trip to Agra—the land of the Taj. The Delhi airport is the busiest airport in the country and has flight connectivity with all the major cities in India and abroad. As such, no matter where you live, you will have no problem visiting Delhi. Once you are in Delhi, book a convenient airport transfer to Agra and travel in a comfortable air-conditioned car. The distance of about 222 km can be covered in just 3.5 hours via the Yamuna Expressway.
Once you are in Agra, your trip from Agra to Jaipur will take another 4 hours after which you can easily explore the Pink City and then make your way to the Ranthambore National Park.
Best Time for an Agra, Jaipur, and Ranthambore Tour
While Agra and Jaipur are exquisite any time of the year, exploring these gems can get difficult in the scorching heat of the summer or during the inconvenient monsoon showers. So, the best time to visit both Agra and Jaipur is during the months of October to February when the weather is extremely pleasant.
If you are visiting the Taj Mahal, plan your trip in the early hours of the morning to savor the breathtaking beauty of the white marble mausoleum during sunrise. The glistening rays of the rising sun offer the best view. For the forts and palaces in Jaipur, we recommend a sunset trip as the Pink City looks its best with the hues of the setting sun. For Ranthambore National Park, both morning and afternoon safaris are available. Mornings offer a greater possibility of a tiger sighting, so you can opt for that. However, afternoon excursions in the jungle are equally enjoyable.
