Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers spectacular views of the Sahyadri mountain range shortly after takeoff and provides the most consistent opportunities to spot the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort during the landing approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Sahyadri Range

Stunning views of the steep cliffs and verdant peaks of the Western Ghats shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Godavari River

The sacred river winding through the city of Nashik and the surrounding agricultural plains.

⛰️

Satpura Mountain Range

Ancient forested ridges that mark the border between Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh.

🕌

The Taj Mahal

The iconic white marble mausoleum is often visible on the right side during the final approach to Agra.

🏰

Agra Fort

The massive red sandstone fortification situated along the banks of the Yamuna River near the Taj.

The right side is essential for the iconic 'Taj Mahal view' during landing. Book a seat well ahead of the wing to ensure the engine does not block your view of the monument. Morning flights offer the clearest air for photography, as smog often builds up around Agra by late afternoon.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌳

Sanjay Gandhi National Park

Aerial views of the dense tropical forest and Tulsi Lake immediately after departing Mumbai.

💧

Tansa Lake

A massive reservoir and wildlife sanctuary located in the foothills of the Western Ghats.

🏜️

Chambal Ravines

The unique and labyrinthine 'badlands' topography created by the Chambal River's erosion.

🏰

Gwalior Fort

The massive sandstone hill fort of Gwalior is often visible on the horizon during the descent phase.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight and harsh glare. This side provides excellent views of the rugged Deccan Plateau terrain and the intricate river systems of Madhya Pradesh. Keep an eye out for the Tansa dam shortly after takeoff.
