The Tiger Safari: Day 8 with Agra extension

On the final day of this wonderful safari, we kept the habit of waking up with the sun, and made straight for the Taj Mahal. The cameras were put to work early, as the lack of crowds and heat, coupled with the fantastic sunrise, made for some wonderful images. Our private guide showed us around the complex, letting us in on all the history of the area. After breakfast, we made our way across to Agra’s Red Fort, which is connected to the Taj Mahal through history, but has quite a unique history of its own. The fort was built in red sandstone, and has a lot of detail carved into it, making for many interesting compositions and images.

The Tiger Safari: Day 7 with Agra extension

After all the tiger fun of the last few days, we tried something a little different before heading off to Agra to see the magnificent Taj Mahal. We climbed up to the 2000-year-old fort overlooking the reserve. This turned out to be a great idea, because the views were spectacular. The ruins themselves were equally impressive, and gave our cameras a new challenge. We arrived in Agra in time to enjoy a wonderful view from our hotel of the Taj Mahal as the sun was setting.
