Absolutely. The extension to experience the Taj is really for everyone. As photographers we try our best to be at every location at the best time of the day

No. Always drink bottled, boiled, or filtered water to avoid stomach issues. 

The currency is Indian Rupees (INR) Major currencies such as US dollars, British pounds and Euros are easy to exchange throughout India. Most international airports throughout the country will have money exchange counters and also all cities have money exchange agents. ATMs are also readily available throughout the country, but near the parks they may run out of cash frequently.

Yes, in hotels, malls, and large restaurants. But cash is needed for street markets, taxis, and smaller shops. The most commonly used cards are Visa and Mastercard, but neither American Express nor Diner’s Club are widely accepted in India.

The electricity supply is 230 – 240 volt, with type C or D plugs. Most North American visitors will require an adaptor. Many of the lodges have international sockets in the rooms, and  there are ample sockets available for charging cameras etc.

The hotels will have wi-fi and easy access to internet.

India is generally safe for travellers and we will be there to take care of you at every step. Certain basic precautions apply. It is a good idea to lock away your spare currency, traveler’s’ cheques, passports and jewellery. Try not to walk around or travel on roads alone late at night, particularly in deserted areas, avoid travelling on the roads after dark. As anywhere else, never leave your luggage unattended at an airport or train station. Always book transfer vehicles in advance from a reputed tour operator or the hotel.

Late March is dry & sunny. Afternoons can become quite hot (expect temperatures potentially ranging from highs of 25°C to 35°C+ / 77°F to 95°F+).

Think light, loose, breathable, and respectful. Prioritize comfort for walking and protection from the sun. Covering shoulders and knees is the best guideline for modesty

  1. Lightweight & Breathable Fabrics: This is key. Choose clothes made of cotton, linen, viscose, or breathable synthetic blends to help you stay cooler in the heat. Avoid heavy fabrics like denim or synthetics that don’t breathe well.
  2. Modesty: While there isn’t an extremely strict dress code enforced for tourists entering the main Taj complex, dressing modestly is highly recommended out of respect for the site (it’s a mausoleum).
    • Aim to cover shoulders and knees. This applies to both men and women.
    • Women: Lightweight long skirts, maxi dresses, loose-fitting trousers (like palazzo pants or linen pants), capris, or longer shorts (knee-length). Pair with t-shirts, blouses (ensure shoulders are covered), or traditional Indian kurtis (tunics). Avoid spaghetti straps, deep necklines, very short shorts, or mini-skirts.
    • Men: Lightweight trousers or chinos, presentable longer shorts (knee-length or just above). Pair with t-shirts, polo shirts, or short-sleeved shirts.
  3. Sun Protection: Crucial!
    • Hat: A wide-brimmed hat is essential for sun protection.
    • Sunglasses: The sun reflecting off the white marble can be intense.
    • Sunscreen: Apply high-SPF sunscreen generously.
  4. Comfortable Footwear: You will be doing a lot of walking.
    • Wear comfortable walking shoes, sandals with good support, or sturdy flats.
    • Important: You will need to remove your shoes before entering the main mausoleum building itself. You can either go barefoot on the marble platform (can be hot!) or wear socks. Disposable shoe covers are sometimes provided or sold, but having socks is a good backup.
  5. Light Scarf/Shawl (Especially for Women): A lightweight scarf (like a cotton Indian dupatta) is incredibly versatile. It can provide extra sun protection for your neck/shoulders, be used to cover your head if you feel the need (though not strictly required for the mausoleum), or add an extra layer of modesty if desired.

6. For Early Morning (Optional): When visiting very early for sunrise, the temperature might be slightly cool initially. A very light cardigan or long-sleeved shirt that you can easily remove later might be useful.

There will be a fair bit of walking inside the monuments with occasional stairs to climb. The day time temperatures would be on the higher side. 

Tripods and drones are not allowed at the Taj. Video gear might attract special permits & fees. Cameras and cell phone pictures are allowed. No photography inside the main mausoleum.
