This is my first time to India as a solo traveler and I had a great introduction to the Taj Mahal with this company. Taking a train ride to Agra was a comfortable alternative to riding in a car the whole way. This review is also a shout out to Neeraj, Saleem, and FARHAN: The dream team! Neeraj and Saleem did a great job with transportation and making sure I got to my destinations. Neeraj even led me all the way to my train seat in the morning! Farhan has been a fantastic guide to spend the day with. Very knowledgeable about the Taj and a fun person to get to know. All email communications before the tour happened was excellent too.Thanks Raj tours!
