Great experience

Great experience. We started bright and early at 2:30am being picked up from the hotel and driven to the Agra. When arriving at the Taj our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the Taj Mahal as well as the other sites visited and the city of Agra in general.

Taj Mahal tour is highly recommended.

We were lucky to do the tour with the guide Vishal Garg, who was very attentive, enthusiastic about his work, and responsive to all the questions my wife and I had during the tour. He provided excellent attention and recommendations, making us feel very safe during the trip, and as a bonus, he is excellent at taking photos.
