Taj Mahal Tour

saddam The Japanese-speaking guide showed us around the place, including the background, and adjusted where we wanted to go. There were some experiences that might cost extra (photographing by a photographer, etc.) but there was no pushover, and the sightseeing was pleasant.

Taj Mahal Tour

I had the Taj Mahal experience. The guide's Japanese was easy to understand and very good. It was unfortunate to be in Bottakuri cameraman and to be introduced to a souvenir shop and to feel that a little time was wasted
