It's better to take a bus or a taxi to visit the places since the tour buses
don't give you enough time to explore the famous monuments. Auto rickshaws
are not allowed to go to Fatehpur Sikri, so better travel by bus or train.

from the bicycle stores located in various parts of the city at nominal
charges or the slow-moving cycle rickshaws, which are only for short
distances. Some of the unique and exotic travel modes will be
battery-operated buses, tongas, large tempos and camel carts.
