Agra Fort is a good place to visit of history and architecture interests you. We opted for a guide from our hotel which we now realise we should have taken one directly at the fort as the charge was almost double. However if one is not interested in knowing the history of the place, a visit without guide would do. About 20% of fort is open to public rest is under army control per our guide and this 20% itself took us about 30 to 45 mins. Entrance ticket of Rs 50 for Indians, cameras and phones are allowed. Fort closes at 5 or 5.30 in the evening. Be careful of pickpockets and people trying to sell or force you to buy things when stepping out. Grand architecture and well maintained fort.

Well worth a visit. Spent about an hour exploring, fantastic architecture and history. Very crowded but easy to get in and explore. Suggest best way to avoid the queues is to visit with an organized tour. Great attraction.

There is a strict policy against bringing baggage inside. The fort is considered to be among the best in India.To explore the full interior space will require us to walk for forty to sixty minutes. There is a checkpoint for security located at the entrance.

Quite good tourist spot with ample to see inside (1-2 hours worth) with several different historical sites inside! I would recommend major change in the entry procedure (long waiting ques even if you have a pre-booked ticket!). Go for the history, the monuments, the views!

The fort is filled with History please make sure to take a guide with you to help appreciate the details. Travelers BEAWARE: While the tour guide (official guide with ID) was good, he recommended us to check out the Meena Bazaar for souvenirs like marble boxes, leather accessories and shawls etc along with Mini Taj. He booked a Tuktuk for us too. please do not go here as all the prices are hiked by 40% and upwards. The tuktuk driver also gets a commission of this. You can get these souvenirs once you go to Taj as they have more reasonable prices in the shops nearby

Beautiful red-colored fort 10-mins away from Taj Mahal. This place is quite clean as compared to Amer Fort in Jaipur. Not many photographers like in Amer Fort and Taj Mahal. So, you can freely take photo on your own.

This was stunning. Like walking back in time. Just beautiful. The detail and colours. I went early morning when it was quiet so you could appreciate the beauty. Take a guide or you will miss the important detail. Most people like me, combine it with a trip to the Taj Mahal.

The location is nice, but guests are restricted to only exploring 25% of the fort. If you tour the fort with a local guide, he will educate you on the background of each and every feature, as well as the significance of those features. You'll have a much harder time enjoying yourself there in the summer due to the high temperature and the excessive humidity.

when in Gra we visited just 2 places, Taj Mahal and Fort. and after that can say that Fort seems to me more interesting. huge area, every building nice and little different. like it. Again (even i know that nothing will be changed): why prices for foreigners and locals are so different?

I visited immediately after the Taj Mahal. The Taj Mahal is the star attraction in Agra, and so the Fort can easily be overlooked. But definitely worth visiting if you have time. It wasn’t too busy on the Saturday I visited, and so had a leisurely walk round with a guide - who I paid 500 INR. About £5. The buildings and history are fascinating, and on a good day the view towards the Taj Mahal is incredible.
