     * Breakfast:  tours include breakfast at a good hotel in Agra or a Good Restaurant on demand.

     * Optional visits: Some tours might include visits to Mehtab Bagh (for a different view of the Taj) or local handicraft shops.

     * Return to Delhi: Usually by early to mid-afternoon.

 * Consider the Timing:

   * Taj Mahal opening: The Taj Mahal opens 30 minutes before sunrise.

   * Approximatetaj mahal timeing: sunrise to sunset

   * Arrive early:  To reach the Taj Mahal 30-45 minutes before the scheduled sunrise to be among the first to enter and secure a good spot.

   * Taj Mahal closure: The Taj Mahal is closed every Friday for general viewing. Plan your trip accordingly.
