Itinerary

Agra & Jaipur From Delhi – 2 Days Quick Tour Package

Most people want to see Agra and Jaipur but almost nobody has 4-6 days to do a slow Golden Triangle trip. That’s why this 2 day plan exists. It’s fast, structured, scenic and surprisingly smooth if you plan right. This route takes you from Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur to the Delhi/Jaipur exit in two full days without making you hate long drives.

This itinerary is not a lazy sightseeing plan. This is a fast, practical, value for money roadmap for travelers who want iconic monuments, good food, colorful markets and real culture without wasting time.

If you want romance mixed with history, sunrise views, local shopping, royal vibes, and a pinch of chaos (the good kind), this plan works. If you expect a slow five-star spa vacation, this does not. So yes, it’s intense, but it’s also worth it.

Destinations Covered

Start: Delhi
Route: Delhi → Agra → Jaipur
End: Jaipur or back to Delhi (your choice)

Highlights of Places You Will Cover

City	What You’ll See	Why It Matters
Agra	Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and local markets	Love, history, architecture, craft
Jaipur	Amer Fort, City Palace, Hawa Mahal, and local bazaars	Royal life, pink city charm, shopping
Road Journey	Yamuna Expressway and Rajasthan highways	Smooth roads, fast travel, scenic ride

This tour is popular because it packs three distinct moods into 48 hours:

Emotional Awe (Taj Mahal)
Fort Strength (Agra Fort + Amer Fort)
Cultural Color and Chaos (Jaipur Markets)

Detailed Itinerary - Delhi, Agra, Jaipur

Day 1: Delhi to Agra – Early Start (3 to 3.5 Hours)

The journey begins at 5:00 AM, well before the city will wake up. You get picked up in your cab or a tempo traveller. The roads at this time of day have good traffic behavior, with low traffic, and you can easily save yourself 60–90 minutes compared to leaving later. Coffee in hand, car playlist selected, seatbelt done, that's the type of energy you want to begin the trip.

You will be driving on the Yamuna Expressway, one of India's finest highways. You will have a clean driving experience, with fewer problems obstructing the drive. Most people either sleep or talk the entire duration of the expressway—it is totally fine to do either.

Taj Mahal – The Main Event (2 to 3 Hours)

You will reach Agra around 8:30 AM. This time, the Taj Mahal hits differently. The marble changes shade with the sunlight, the crowds are tolerable, and the photos actually look like photos, not a sea of strangers.

Some practical points:

The Taj Mahal is closed on Fridays. If your trip falls on a Friday, swap the order or reach Agra the evening before.
Wear shoes you can remove quickly.
Keep water handy.
Trust me, you don't need 200 pictures from the same angle.

If you take a guide, spend time walking, absorbing and listening. The details on the marble, the symmetry, and the layout of the garden are understood only when viewed slowly, not quickly.

Breakfast Time

Since you didn’t eat at 5 AM (hopefully), this is the moment. You can choose between:

A quick local breakfast near the parking area
A sit-down cafe meal
Or parathas and chai if your soul leans desi

Just avoid extremely heavy meals because the day hasn’t even hit its halfway point.

Agra Fort (1 to 1.5 Hours)

Next stop is the Agra Fort, a red-stone fortress built when emperors actually wanted luxury and security in one package. The views of the Yamuna River, the royal courtyards, the prison chambers of Shah Jahan, and the Taj skyline from a distance make this stop smart, not optional.

You will climb stairs. You will walk more. You’ll survive.

Local Market Stop (30–40 Minutes)

Before leaving Agra, you can browse:

Marble inlay work
Leather items
Agra sweets (Petha if you want, but it’s not mandatory)

There is no obligation to purchase anything. Most travelers look and leave. That’s normal.

Agra → Jaipur via Fatehpur Sikri (4 to 5 hours)

The drive now shifts to Rajasthan. You can take a quick stop at Fatehpur Sikri, the abandoned Mughal city. It adds 30–45 minutes but gives you a bonus monument without effort.

Otherwise, continue to Jaipur. You’ll reach around 7:00–8:00 PM, depending on stops, speed, and snack breaks.

Hotel Check-in + Dinner

Check in, freshen up, eat, and sleep. Avoid any late nightlife plans. You need rest for Day 2, which is physically heavier.

Day 2: Jaipur Full Day & Trip Ends

Breakfast and Start for Amer Fort

After breakfast, you head to Amer Fort, the best fort in Jaipur, no contest. It’s not pink, but it’s grand, dramatic, massive, and photogenic.

Expect:

Large courtyards
Mirror halls
Elephant ride option (optional and seasonal)
Lots of stairs again

This is where most of your Jaipur pictures will come from.

City Palace (60–90 Minutes)

Next comes City Palace, still partially a royal residence. This place has museums, royal clothes, paintings, silver artifacts, and architecture that actually gives you a mental image of how the kings lived.

Hawa Mahal (Photo Stop)

You don’t enter Hawa Mahal. You look at it, you take photos, and you leave. That’s how 95% of travelers experience it.

Lunch Break

Eat something local or safe. Options include:

Dal baati churma
Rajasthani thali
North Indian food, if you don’t experiment
Anything but extremely oily if you want to avoid regret

Jaipur Markets (30–60 Minutes)

You can explore:

Johari Bazaar (jewelry)
Bapu Bazaar (clothes & juttis)
Tripolia (lac bangles)
Nehru Bazaar (traditional items)

Bargaining is expected. Overpaying is optional but common.

End the Trip

Now you choose:

Drop at Jaipur hotel/airport/railway station or
Drive back to Delhi (5–6 hours)

If you return to Delhi, expect arrival around 10:00–11:00 PM.

Frequently Asked Question

Q1. Can we start this 2-day Agra–Jaipur tour from Delhi airport instead of the city?

A1. Yes, airport pickup works the same as hotel pickup. The driver meets you at arrivals, and the route continues directly to Agra without any schedule change.

Q2. Will we get both Agra and Jaipur local sightseeing in these 2 days or just touchpoints?

A2. The package includes full sightseeing, not just stop-and-go. You cover the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Amer Fort, City Palace, Hawa Mahal, and local markets with proper stop durations.

Q3. Do we need to book a hotel for this package or is it included?

A3. Hotels are not included by default. You book your own hotel in Jaipur because the overnight stay happens there, not in Agra. If you like, we can suggest options.

Q4. Is this trip possible without hiring a guide at monuments?

A4. Yes, it’s possible. But without guides, you spend extra time figuring out entry lines, photo points, and history. With guides, you move faster and understand more.

Q5. Can we customize the plan if we want to skip some places?

A5. Yes, you can remove shopping, shorten forts, skip Fatehpur Sikri, or drop markets. The driver adjusts the flow without changing the route.

Q6. Will this trip work for senior citizens?

A6. Yes, if you choose a comfortable vehicle, avoid rush hours, and limit stairs at forts. Most monuments have flat walking areas and regular sitting points.

Q7. Is sunset or sunrise Taj view possible in this 2-day plan?

A7. Sunrises aren’t possible in Delhi. But you reach early morning soft light timing, which is close to sunrise lighting for photos. Sunset views are possible at Mehtab Bagh if added.
