Shimla to Agra Tour Packages

The best way depends on your preferences. By road (7-8 hours) offers scenic mountain views, by train via Kalka-Delhi provides comfort, and flying via Delhi is fastest (4-5 hours total). Road travel is most popular for the beautiful landscapes during the journey from hills to plains.

October to March is ideal when Agra weather is pleasant (10-30°C) compared to Shimla's cold. This period offers comfortable sightseeing conditions. Avoid summer months (April-June) when Agra temperatures exceed 40°C. Winter months also provide clear skies for better Taj Mahal photography.

There are no direct flights or trains from Shimla to Agra. Road travel is the most direct option (350 km, 7-8 hours). For train travel, you need to go via Kalka-Delhi-Agra. Flying requires connecting through Delhi or Chandigarh airports. Most tour packages include comfortable transportation arrangements.

Pack lighter clothes as Agra is warmer than Shimla. Bring comfortable walking shoes, sunglasses, hat, sunscreen, and light cotton clothing. In winter, carry a light jacket for early morning Taj Mahal visits. Don't forget camera, portable charger, and any medications. Modest clothing is required for religious sites.

2-3 days are ideal for covering major Agra attractions. Day 1: Travel and Taj Mahal sunset, Day 2: Taj Mahal sunrise and Agra Fort, Day 3: Fatehpur Sikri and departure.
