Next, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch at a highly-rated local restaurant. It’s the perfect break before heading to the final stop of the day.

If time permits, your guide may also take you to Mehtab Bagh, a garden complex across the Yamuna River, where you can view the Taj Mahal from a serene and lesser-known perspective. It’s also a great spot for sunset photos if you opt for the extended version of the tour.
