Haha. You should've taken the Metro, at least to IGI. Our trips from Noida to New Delhi on the Metro were the most efficient parts of our vacation last month.

Hopefully it will take a shorter time to get to Agra when the Yamuna Expwy opens up shortly. Too many small towns (and bottlenecks) on the Delhi-Agra "highway" now.
