Agra Bus Services

Agra is the also know as the "city of Taj" It is the best for weekend getaways. Agra is nearby to Delhi, Jaipur, Meerut. Travelers can easily visit Agra by Bus or train. It takes hardly three hours by road to Agra.

Agra is just 204 km from Delhi. Both the cities are well connected by an excellent National Highway. Agra city is situated in the state of Uttar Pradesh and is well connected to the rest of the country.

The city is well linked by regular bus services to other places in the state and beyond. National Highways 2, 3 and 11 that pass through Agra are major contributors of local transportation.

Taj Mahal is in Agra, it is one of the seven wonders of world. Taj Mahal was constructed by the Mughal Emperor, Shah Jehan. It is said he built this monument in the memory of his beloved wife Mumtaj Mahal. The Taj Mahal is ethereal at any part of the day - blushing in the rosy glow of dawn or sunset , appearing like a pearly mirage in the moonlight or reflected in the pools of the garden. Perhaps the most moving view of the Taj is from an octagonal tower in the Agra Fort further along the river Yamuna.

One can easily book online AC bus(2x1 or 2x2, push back seats) from Makemytrip.com.
