Continue with a drive through Embassy area, the Government buildings (1921-1930) and Connaught Place, the heart and main shopping district of the capital. We will also visit India Gate

Later, we cross the city and into the walled gates of the Old city with visits to the Jamma Mosque (1650) and drive through the fabled area of Chandni Chowk (aptly translates to Moonlight Square) where the throngs of shoppers and vendors meet in the oldest area of Delhi. Visit Raj Ghat and nearby ghats where the founder of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi and thereafter Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi were cremated.

The highlight of this tour would be a ride on cycle rickshaws. Now these are 3-wheel cycles with a sofa seat at the back. The Rickshawalla (Rickshaw driver) sits on a small cushion in the front and two passengers on the sofa seat behind. This is a remarkable way to explore and picture the hustle and bustle as well as the colour of the narrow winding streets bursting with people and pavement shops selling wares of all description - including a laughing set of dentures. The ride would be accompanied by peals of laughter both from the passengers as well as the onlookers.

Day 03 : Delhi to Agra by Road
Today morning after an early breakfast you will start for Agra by road. After taking some rest in your hotel, enjoy a sightseeing tour of Agra covering Agra Fort, Tomb of Itimad-Ud-Daulah and Taj Mahal.
Before shifting capital from Agra to Delhi, the Agra Fort was the main residence of the Mughal emperors. The fort symbolizes the power and great architectural expertise of the Mughal Dynasty. After exploring Agra Fort, we will head to Tomb of Itimad-Ud-Daulah. Often described as a "Jewel Box", Itimad-Ud-Daulah's Tomb is another symbol of Mughal creativity. Due to the resemblance with the Taj, it is also known as "Bachcha Taj". From here, you will head to the Taj Mahal - an epitome of love.
The white marble mausoleum was built by Shah Jahan to honor his wife Mumtaz Mahal. Regarded as one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the monument looks truly mesmerizing every time you will visit. Twenty thousand stone carvers, masons, and artists from India, Turkey and Iraq worked day and night on the bank of the river Yamuna to create this wonderful picture of love. Taking a snap before Taj is considered good luck for couples. So, don't miss the opportunity. As the last rays of the sun disappear from the head of the Taj you will head back to your hotel for an overnight stay
