Yamuna Express Way & Jarar Airport Likely to Boost Up Same Day Agra Tour

Presently Agra destination is sold like a hot cake and there is an evident increase in the footfalls of tourists with the opening of the new Yamuna Express Way from Noida to Agra. This infrastructural development has multiplied the numbers of the tourists and as it has shortened the time duration of Agra tour there is a phenomenal increase in the number of the tourists who do Same Day Agra Tour by Car. In the coming years as the Government of India plans for the new Jewar International Airport, we should hope for a bright future for Agra tourism. On the one hand, this airport is likely to reduce the overburdened traffic of I.G.I. Airport and on the other hand, it is going to open a new vista for the direct air travel and chartered flights to Jewar.

A number of domestic tourists travel to Delhi by Air to see Mathura and Vrindavan. It is very feasible for such tourists to approach Agra by road by using the newly made Yamuna expressway and do Mathura Vrindavan tour along with Taj Mahal Sightseeing. If you take a car and drive nearly two hours you reach Mathura and cover the major temples in just 3–4 hours. After having your lunch you can drive to Agra in an hour and a half. This gives you ample of time to cover the major highlights of Agra tour — The Taj Mahal & Agra Fort. After enjoying the sunset at the Taj Mahal and visiting the Old Agra markets you can easily reach Delhi within three hours.

Another point to be noticed is that with the opening of Jewar Airport the night stay in Agra is going to increase the tourists who will plan for their Delhi, Agra Jaipur tour they would land at Jewar and would come to stay in Agra to see the Taj on account of close proximity. In coming years Agra is going to be at least two nights’ destination and the neglected magnificent monuments would certainly find the place in the travel itineraries.

So with a good note, I would like to sum up my feelings that much advancement has been done in the recent year's infrastructure and still many efforts are to be done like increase Nightlife in Agra, Starting of water sports in the Yamuna river and above all creating a tourist-friendly environment of the city.
