1 Answer
Agra is 233 km from Delhi via the Yamuna Expressway — a smooth 3–3.5 hour drive. It's one of India's most popular day-trip routes.
Route: Yamuna Expressway (Strongly Recommended)
Delhi → Noida → Greater Noida → Yamuna Expressway → Agra. The Yamuna Expressway is a dedicated 6-lane access-controlled highway — no signals, no towns, no truck traffic. It's fast and smooth.
- Toll: ~₹535 one-way (car)
- Speed limit: 100 km/h
- Petrol pumps, food plazas: Available at regular intervals on expressway
Alternative: NH-19 via Mathura
Delhi → Faridabad → Mathura → Agra (235 km, 4.5–5 hrs). Slower — passes through towns — but useful if you want to stop at Mathura and Vrindavan en route.
Day Trip Feasibility
Agra is absolutely doable as a same-day trip from Delhi. Depart 5:30–6 AM, spend 6–7 hours in Agra (Taj Mahal + Agra Fort minimum), return Delhi by 9 PM. EZPZ Taxi specialises in this route.
