Agra Tourism: When Luxury Meets Love

Agra offers a dream vacation. Forget its bustling streets and chaotic local markets. Look at Agra through a tourist’s eyes and you will find immense beauty and wonder in it. Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Akbar’s Tomb, Dayal Bagh, Fatehpur Sikri, and more – the city awes you to no end.

Historical allure

The city harbors a historical allure that pulls people from far off places of India and abroad. The Uttar Pradesh tourism organizes various fairs and festivals to promote Agra tourism. The Taj Mohabbat Show is one of them.

The advent of luxury trains in India has given a powerful boost to tourism in India, especially Agra. Trains like the Maharajas’ Express have arranged for a visit to this historically rich city in all its North Indian tours.

Agra is a part of the Golden Triangle tourist circuit, which also includes Delhi and Jaipur. It is said that missing a visit to the Golden Triangle is like missing a significant part of India’s history, culture, and royal essence. In other words, you haven’t seen much of North India, if you haven’t been to the Golden Triangle cities.

Royal Indian holidays

Agra forms an essential part of royal tour packages, especially those of luxury trains. The city, which was the seat of Mughal power, is famous for its forts and its markets. Walk in any market down the road and you find vibrancy all around. It gives you a chance to mingle with the locals and have a good time shopping and tasting the street food.

Holidaying in this city is like being a part of its rich history. When you visit Agra through a luxury train like the Maharaja you cease to be a traveler. You are now a royal guest – a maharaja or a maharani – who has come to pay a visit to the city that boasts of royal roots.

The Maharaja train offers 5 distinct tours that include a visit to Agra:
• Gems of India: 4 days and 3 nights
• Treasures of India: 4 days and 3 nights
• Heritage of India: 8 days and 7 nights
• Indian Splendor: 8 days and 7 nights
• Indian Panorama: 8 days and 7 nights

Each tour carries its own charm and a set of thrilling things to do and places to visit. Depending on the time and your budget, you can choose any of the tours and enjoy some of the most memorable Indian holidays filled with luxury and leisure.

The train operates its tours from September to April. This is a great time to tour North India. The warm winter sun allows you to roam around the sprawled gardens of the city and visit forts and palaces. You can bask in the winter sun sitting on one of the benches of the beautifully-maintained gardens around the Taj Mahal. Feel love in the air here.

Luxury trains like the Maharajas’ Express contribute significantly to boosting Agra tourism. The allure of the Taj Mahal draws tourists from across the world. Trains like these carry eager tourists to this historical city. They return home filled with beautiful memories.
