Just my opinion, but I think u will get much more from this forum if u do a bit of research, come up with some basic outline itinerary, then ask for feedback. U can learn a lot reading the posts on this forum, and then a good guidebook like Lonely Planet or Rough Guide is totally essential (for planning, and on the road).

As for Delhi to Agra/Taj, a guidebook will spell out the options. Train would be the obvious choice. There are a bunch of them. The Indian train system is amazing but it's a beast. There is a steep learning curve before u get your head around it, but then it makes sense.

This is a good starting point for the train system:

There are some real train gurus on this forum, so once u get into it, u can get answers to any question u can think of.

November is a great time to explore north India. Rajasthan will be a very good destination.
