The Gatimaan Express, India’s first semi-high-speed train, launched in April 2016, offers an efficient and luxurious way to explore iconic destinations. Operating between Hazrat Nizamuddin (Delhi) and Jhansi, covering 403 km in 4 hours 25 minutes, it reaches speeds up to 160 km/h (reduced to 130 km/h in 2024 pending Kavach system installation). The train, running six days a week (except Fridays), features 12 air-conditioned coaches—8 AC Chair Cars and 2 Executive Class—with amenities like Wi-Fi, bio-toilets, LCDs, and onboard catering.

Popular for same-day Taj Mahal tours, the Delhi-Agra route (188 km) takes just 1 hour 40 minutes, departing Delhi at 8:10 AM and returning from Agra at 5:50 PM. Tour packages, like those by Rajvansh Holidays, include round-trip tickets, guided visits to the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and Itmad-ud-Daulah, plus meals and AC car transfers. Fares range from ₹860 (Chair Car) to ₹1,690 (Executive Class), including meals. With professional guides, comfortable seating, and seamless logistics, Gatimaan Express tours offer a convenient, enriching experience for tourists seeking to explore Agra’s UNESCO heritage sites in a day.
