Your private guide will accompany you, assist with purchasing entrance tickets, and share the fascinating history, architecture, and love story behind this iconic monument. Built between 1631 and 1648 by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, the Taj Mahal is the crown jewel of Mughal architecture in India and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It was the main residence of the Mughal emperors until 1638, when the capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. The Marathas were the last Indian rulers to hold it before the British took over. The Agra Fort, adjacent to the gardens of the Taj Mahal, is a significant 16th-century Mughal monument also known as the Red Fort of Agra. Built of red sandstone, this mighty fort encloses the imperial city of the Mughal rulers within its 2.5 km-long walls. The fort's intimidating exterior conceals a paradise within.
