Taj Mahal Tour Packages from Delhi – Private, Sunrise, Guided & Eco-Friendly Trips
No monument in the world captures the essence of eternal love, artistic grandeur, and spiritual harmony quite like the Taj Mahal. Located on the southern bank of the Yamuna River in Agra, this breathtaking white marble structure was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in the 17th century as a tribute to his beloved queen Mumtaz Mahal. More than just a symbol of love, it is the beating heart of India's cultural and architectural legacy — a true gem of Mughal architecture.
Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and voted among the New Seven Wonders of the World, the Taj Mahal attracts over 6 million visitors annually from every corner of the globe. Its ethereal beauty shifts with the sun — golden at dawn, milky white under daylight, and pinkish-orange at sunset — making every visit unique and mesmerizing.
But seeing the Taj Mahal isn’t just about showing up. It’s about how you see it — the timing, the guide, the entry experience, the local insights. A poorly planned visit can turn into hours of queuing, rushed sightseeing, or missing the finest details carved into the marble walls. That’s why a properly curated Taj Mahal tour package from Delhi becomes essential.
At Top Indian Holidays, we’ve been designing premium, private, eco-friendly, and VVIP-style Taj Mahal tours from Delhi for over 15 years. From sunrise tours to guided multilingual experiences, and even zero-pollution EV tours, we make sure your time with the Taj is as timeless as the monument itself.

Best Time to Visit the Taj Mahal
The experience of visiting the Taj Mahal is deeply tied to timing — not just the hour of the day, but also the season, weather, and crowd levels. Here’s a breakdown to help you plan your visit perfectly:
October to March (Winter & Spring):
Best months to visit with pleasant weather, clear skies, and the opportunity to enjoy both sunrise and sunset comfortably. This is also peak tourist season, so booking your Taj Mahal tour package early is recommended.
April to June (Summer):
Very hot and dry. Early morning sunrise tours are the best option to avoid heat and crowds. Not suitable for elderly travelers or young kids after 10 AM.
July to September (Monsoon):
Lower footfall, green surroundings, and dramatic cloudscapes. If you don’t mind occasional rain, this is a great off-season option.
By Time of Day:
Sunrise:
This is the most popular and magical time. The first rays of light hitting the marble create a surreal pink glow. Perfect for photography and peaceful moments.
Sunset:
Viewed from Mehtab Bagh, the Taj reflects golden tones and the Yamuna River adds depth to the experience.
Full Moon Night Viewing:
Available only 5 nights per month (2 before, on, and 2 after full moon). Requires advance booking through ASI. Limited to 50 people per batch.
No matter when you go, booking with Top Indian Holidays ensures you see the Taj at its most beautiful — with zero stress, expert guidance, and all arrangements taken care of.
