You meet your chauffeur at a hotel lobby or arrivals gate in Delhi just after dawn, a light breeze off the Yamuna touching the city as traffic hums awake. The car slides onto the Yamuna Expressway and the dense city gives way to broad plains; fields and low villages pass in a steady rhythm as the driver keeps a calm, efficient pace. The road pushes you forward — purposeful and direct — toward Agra and the Taj Mahal’s silhouette that grows as you approach.
