Half-Day City Tour of Agra visit Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity

Visit Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity home on this private Agra tour. Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity in India in 1950, and at the time of her death, it was operating 610 missions in 123 countries, including hospices and homes for people with HIV/AIDS, leprosy, and tuberculosis; soup kitchens; child and family counseling programs; orphanages; and schools.

Home to orphaned children or those with families who can no longer provide for them, along with 150 adults who can no longer care for themselves, the charity home in India provides a look at the tremendous work of Mother Teresa.

You'll travel with a private guide and have the chance to shop for handicrafts in Agra, as well. Lunch is included.

Spend about two hours visiting the Missionaries of Charity home, which cares for a group of orphaned or less fortunate children, as well as some adults.

When you leave the charity home, you have time for shopping in Agra, which is known for handicrafts made of marble and soft stone inlay work. The Mughals were great patrons of arts and crafts. Agra's other major handicraft products include leatherware, brassware, carpets, jewelry, and embroidery work.

In the early afternoon, enjoy a provided lunch at a local restaurant. Then you will be dropped off at your hotel or the train station in Agra to end your tour.
