You can use a UBER for this - Outstation round-trip. Your UBER app will work - just change the payment mode to "Cash" and pay in INR after the trip.
Hey! Absolutely a better choice is a cab. Usually what travellers do is complete the Agra trip from Delhi during the day and the head towards Jaipur. You can just go online and book from several cab / taxi vendors. I had frnds visiting from the States earlier this year and I got the booking done through hippocabs.com. you could also use the Uber app once you're in Delhi for outstation rides, but driver availablity and rates could be an issue. Reccomendation: book a Toyota Innova Crystal , it's for upto 6 people. But probably the most comfortable taxi around in India. Have a good one. Cheers
you can get taxi from airport... either UBER/OLA or the black/yellow taxi from Delhi Police Pre Paid taxi counter. Also check what all is included in fare..toll , parking etc. full day taxi should be around Rs 3000 to Rs 4000 depending on car used.
Yes you can take a taxi. It'll actually be a better option as almost all trains are running pretty late these days. If you want I can help you for taxi....
Hola, Yes it is very much possible and in fact, highly recommended. Because getting around the city becomes lot easier and travel time is also very short. Plus there are some more monuments you can visit if you wish to. I run a taxi service. I would be glad to serve if you wish so.
I lived in India for about a year and a half; I'm now back home in the U.S. Shop around; you will get different prices. One contact is Joshi at Vedanta Cottage Industries, directly behind the Imperial Hotel (one of the best hotels in the world). Phone: 8010502520
If you are in Delhi now, and you go to Joshi's shop, after you leave there, turn to your right and walk a little way - you will see another shop advertising tours. Get a bid from them as well.
I found the following info from a 2010 post; rates are probably higher today: Rate for car like TaTa Indigo or Indica is app.Rs. 6/- per kilometer and big car like Innova is app.Rs.10 per kilometer that includes Taxes.So from here you can negotiate with any body.
Tell Joshi and Nandeeta that Matt Kramer referred you.
Comfortable Toyota Innova is a good option for a round trip to Agra from Delhi, even though I would have suggested atleast One night in Agra. Also please not that the Taj Mahal is closed on Friday’s, please plan Accordingly. I have a Travel Company and my office can Help you with the Arrangements. vikassuda@vdoit4u.com +91 9811070876

In addition to what the other have suggested, also check out TripAdvisor's page on Agra for comparatively safe and reliable services. And +1 for the advice about hiring a bigger SUV. Definitely more comfortable. All the best!

I wouldn't recommend going by road to Agra. The expressway that people normally take to reach Agra has a bad history of accidents. People here do not have proper driving skills and that coupled with fog in winters makes it a bad combo. I'd suggest you to travel via train or flight.
Have a safe journey!
Yeah if u have to pay 12k instead of 2k
