Taj Mahal was brilliant and though busy, J W dropping. Our guide knew the very best spots for wonderful pictures and was very knowledgeable..
- Sandra · AU2022-03-20Traveler review
We loved how it was all inclusive - it would have been so difficult to experience all of this on our own. Shaan, our guide was friendly and knowledgable. He helped us navigate the sometimes confusing parts of the day in Dehli and Agra. He helped us hire a local photographer who took amazing photos - and he helped us negotiate a great price! They helped us out by adapting our return journey to ensure we were there in time for our flight. We had a really wonderful day.
- Christopher · GB2022-03-16Traveler review
I had a very knowledgeable guide who managed to make the entire day engaging and entertaining, looking after my best interests with sellers or other people attempting to obtain money from me.

A terrific day out from Delhi to Agra. Our group of four was picked up from our Delhi hotel by our driver, right on time at 06:00 Happy Singh then drove us to Agra stopping for coffee and comfort breaks along the way. Happy was a very good driver and we felt safe and comfortable with him. In Agra, Adil took over for the Taj Mahal tour. He was an excellent guide with fantastic knowledge of India’s history. Adil was good company, and added to a very enjoyable experience. Happy drove us back to Delhi late in the afternoon and looked after us well all the way. A very enjoyable and informative experience.

- Laura · US2022-01-16Traveler review
I enjoyed the Agra tour very much. Although I didn't get to ride on the train as planned due to the festivity happening in India, I appreciated that the Manager gave me a call 72 hours before the tour and alerted me of the change. He arranged a driver to pick me up at the airport hotel in Delhi and drove me to Agra for the tour. It was nice 3-hour ride on a nice / fairly new highway: I thoroughly enjoyed the scenery of the countryside. We pick up the local guide in Agra. He has a good command of English and is very knowledgeable of the historical sites. He gave me a lot of tips just ahead the time that I had to navigate through the crowds, the traffic and the awaiting local merchants. Overall, I had a very enjoyable trip that I will remember forever. Thank you.

Ask for shaan if you need great instagram worthy content and he WILL NOT DISAPPOINT! He has a passion for photography and you can tell he takes his job very seriously and knows all the great spots for the best possible pictures. No hesitations when booking with this company. Book with confidence and you’ll be well taken care of!
