Best Route from Lucknow to Delhi
There are two common road routes for this journey. Here is a comparison to help you choose the right one.
Agra-Lucknow + Yamuna Expressway
- Lucknow ? Kanpur ? Agra ? Delhi
- Distance: approx. 500 – 520 km
- Travel time: 8 to 9 hours
- World-class expressways, smooth drive
- Clean food plazas and petrol stations
- Pass through Agra for optional Taj Mahal stop
NH-27 via Kannauj & Aligarh
- Lucknow ? Kannauj ? Aligarh ? Delhi
- Distance: approx. 540 – 560 km

For most travellers, the Agra-Lucknow Expressway combined with the Yamuna Expressway is the right choice. The road quality is excellent, the drive is comfortable, and if you have time, Agra makes for a wonderful midway stop.
Places to Stop on the Way
Kanpur
Kanpur is about 80 km from Lucknow and is the first major city on this route. It is a good place for a quick breakfast stop if you are starting early. The city is known for its leather industry and the historic Kanpur Memorial Church.
Agra — The Taj Mahal
Agra falls roughly midway on the Agra-Lucknow Expressway route and is one of the most popular stops on this highway. If you are not in a rush, a two-hour stop to see the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, or Fatehpur Sikri makes this journey truly memorable. Let your driver know in advance and plan an early start.
Mathura and Vrindavan
Just 55 km before Delhi on the Yamuna Expressway, Mathura and Vrindavan are important pilgrimage destinations. Krishna Janmabhoomi Temple and Banke Bihari Temple are the main attractions. A two-hour stop here is easy to plan on this route.
Expressway Food Plazas
Both the Agra-Lucknow Expressway and the Yamuna Expressway have well-maintained food courts and petrol pumps at regular intervals. A rest stop near Agra is recommended, especially for families with children or senior citizens.
