Visit major monuments at dawn
Taj Mahal and Amer Fort are far quieter at first light; cooler temperatures also make walking and photography easier.

Many sites require modest dress; lightweight long sleeves and a scarf are practical for sun protection and temple etiquette.
Carry small cash for bazaars
Street vendors and small shops often prefer cash for purchases under local currency limits, so keep small denominations handy.
Prepare for multi-hour drives
Roads between Agra and Jaipur can take 3–5 hours; plan naps or offline entertainment and allow extra time for traffic.

Closed shoes with good soles are useful for uneven palace courtyards and market streets.
