The Taj Mahal, Cooking Class & Local Family Meal
An early morning transfer to the railway station kicks off the day. Board the Gatiman Express Train from Delhi to Agra, with a boxed breakfast from the hotel to enjoy during the journey. Upon arrival, set out for the Taj Mahal, reaching the monument by battery rickshaw, and spend time admiring its beauty before heading to Agra Fort, a landmark that reflects the grandeur of the Mughal era. Enjoy lunch at your own pace, followed by a relaxed afternoon. In the evening, take part in a cooking demonstration featuring traditional dishes from Uttar Pradesh, followed by dinner with a local family. At the home, guests are welcomed with drinks suited to the weather before being introduced to the family. A brief tour of the house includes a visit to the temple and organic kitchen garden. As rotis (Indian breads) are prepared in an open kitchen, guests get a closer look at the art of bread-making. The meal is shared with the family, creating an opportunity for conversation about Indian culture and traditions. Return to the hotel after dinner.
