About this experience
Doing day trips by train is the best way to experience the culture, encounter the local folk and interacting with the localities. Most of the day tour packages of Agra by train are conducted by luxury trains which do not stop on suburb stations and thus one miss the opportunity to come in contact with real India experiences. Even travelling by these swanky and speedy trains incur much cost. In this tour product we provide you the option to travel to Agra in one day by the Old Taj express which might take a little more time but this is cost effective tour where you churn out more satisfaction of looking Indian culture without being monotous. In this tour product we provide you guided day tour of Agra with lunch at an Indian restaurant.
