You arrive on the Yamuna's banks just before dawn, the white marble of the Taj Mahal blurring into cool mist as early light edges its domes. The tour's rhythm is immediate: a morning drive from Delhi, an overnight in Agra and two chances to see the mausoleum — at sunrise from the main complex and at sunset from Mehtab Bagh where the river dares you to find the perfect reflection.
