“The art of organic perfume, or Itra, flourished during the Mughal era, championed by none other than Queen Noor Jahan herself. These enchanting scents became an essential part of life in the Mughal court, adorning the nobility and high-ranking officials with their mesmerizing fragrances.

Today, the legacy continues in Agra, where families from the same lineage—over 300 years old—still craft and sell these timeless scents.

On our City Walk, we take you to meet the current generation of these artisans, hear their stories, and experience the essence of history through fragrance.

“What’s the magic of guided walks? 🧭✨ Sure, you can find information online, but here’s what you can’t get:

A chance to connect with passionate local guides who tailor every walk to your interests, your curiosity, and your knowledge. Our guided walks aren’t just facts—they’re filled with stories, personal insights, and a human touch that makes every moment unforgettable.

Our walk leaders? They’re not just guides—they’re artists, filmmakers, musicians, environmentalists, and storytellers. People deeply committed to preserving and sharing the rich heritage of Agra. Sharing lighter moments, deep insights, and everything in between is what makes our walks truly special.

“Enjoying a rare sunny day at the Taj Mahal from our exclusive spot. 🌞✨

The Taj Mahal is not just a monument—it’s a meditative experience, a journey through history, beauty, and emotion. Think about it: you might visit the Taj Mahal once in your lifetime. Why rush? Why click endless photos? Instead, immerse yourself. Walk through its serene gardens, find your own quiet corners, and connect with its timeless essence.

Our Unimaginable Beauty of the Taj Mahal walk is designed to help you truly experience the Taj—away from the crowds, at your own pace, and with your loved ones. It’s no surprise that this walk repeatedly earns glowing reviews. 🌿🕌

Ramadan, the ninth month of the Muslim calendar, is one of the most sacred times for Muslims. It is the month in which it is believed that the Holy Qur'an was sent down from heaven "as a guidance for men and women, a declaration of direction, and a means of salvation."

Muslims believe that in A.D. 610, the angel Gabriel appeared to Prophet Muhammad and revealed the Quran, the Islamic holy book. That revelation, Laylat Al-Qadar—or the “Night of Power”—is believed to have occurred during Ramadan. Muslims fast during that month as a way to commemorate the revelation of the Quran.

In photo: A traditional Iftar spread.

Iftar = the breaking of the fast. In Ramzan, fasts start before sunrise and end at sunset. Yes, there is no drinking water or eating of fruits involved.

Agra Heritage Walks

A walk through alleys & lanes of Agra which brings alive the old city through a blend of historical facts, pieces of memory, stories of natives, work of craftsmen and traditional recipes home-cooked by local women. It is an experience beyond the known monuments, in a manner that overcomes the distant, checklist way of knowing a place; bridging the gap between those looking and those looked at.
