Begin your day with a privately guided visit to the Taj Mahal, built in the 17th century by Shah Jahan as a timeless tribute to his bride, Mumtaz Mahal. As the sun rises, watch the marble shimmer and gradually change colour, creating a truly magical and awe-inspiring moment.
While sunrise is quieter than later in the day, a few early visitors may still be around, adding to the charm of this shared experience. Your guide will help you navigate the best viewpoints so you can soak in the beauty and capture perfect photos.
Please note that the Archaeological Survey of India is conducting a long-term restoration project at the Taj Mahal. While the overall magnificence remains, minor work may appear in your photographs. Guides will ensure any disruptions are minimal so your visit remains seamless.
