Like if I leave at 6am, drive/train there, see it for an hour- then head back to the airport for a 13:40 flight?
if so, how...and driver details please? or is the train the fastest?
thanks!
No, even if you can drive each way in 2 hrs (not gonna happen, just did this trip last month) -- it takes more than an hour to "see" the Taj. About 2 hours for us from the time we got to the ticket office to back in the car. And we spent very little time on the grounds since it was about 115 that day.
Agree that you should at least get to Agra the night before, and maybe see the Taj at night if it's around the full moon.
Still a very ambitious trip.
