1. Agra is a city you just not want to miss on your India itinerary. The Taj Mahal, a world heritage site is an absolute wonder. A day trip should constitute Taj Mahal & Agra Fort.
2. You should generally spend more than a day to include Fatehpur Sikri. It is well worth’s an extra day. 2 days are optional, 1 day is necessary for sure.
3. Agra might seem little expensive for shopping. The marble inlay work might be hard to find (cheap) at other places, however do haggle a lot, otherwise the price can be exorbitant.
4. If moving towards Delhi
or Jaipur you can hold on to your shopping
desires as you will come across lots of
opportunities.
5. A travel guide can be a great help in Agra.
6. Hire a taxi to move around the city and further to Fatehpur Sikri. Its worth its value in Gold.
