Day 10

Panna – Orchha – Jhansi – Agra
Early morning, check-out from the hotel and drive to Jhansi, 250 km away (approximately five hours) to board an evening train to Agra. En route, visit Orchha. Just 15 km away from Jhansi, Orchha is a quaint town dating back to 16th century. The place justifies its name as Orchha literally means “hidden place”. The beautiful monuments tell the sagas of battles between the kings and emperors. Orchha Fort Complex, Jahangir Mahal, Chaturbhuj Temple and Laxminarayan Temple are a must-see. Later, continue your drive to Jhansi railway station for your train to Agra. No visit to India is complete without experiencing the bustle of Indian railway stations and the travel on an Indian express train. This is a fun and comfortable way to get around India. Your seats are always pre-reserved. On arrival in Agra, check-in at hotel and stay overnight.
