 On day 4 of the Rajputana Splendour Tour, you will travel
to Fatehpur Sikri, the grand but deserted Mughal capital
founded by Emperor Akbar during 1571 to 1585 AD. However,
a great shortage of water forced him to desert the city after
12 years. A ghost town today, Fatehpur Sikri has still managed
to retain its characteristic grandeur and is one of the finest
examples of Mughal architecture we can ever behold today.
Later during the day, you will undertake a 7-hour road journey
to Ranthambore, located at a distance of 265 km away from
Agra. On the way, you will stop at a roadside Dhaba or restaurant
to get a taste of the famous India tea. You will also be given
the option of stopping at the Keoladeo Ghana Bird
Sanctuary to indulge in some enjoyable bird watching exercises.
On arrival at Ranthambore, you will be driven to the Nahargarh
Fort Hotel that is one of the finest heritage hotels in
the area. Your overnight stay will be at the same hotel in
Ranthambore.
