We are on a World Cruise and had made arrangements with Pacific Classic Tours to leave our ship for a private tour of the Taj Mahal. Our itinerary was changed at the last minute, but PCT was able to make our visit with the new ports. We left from Colombo and returned to Cochin on the 3rd day. Our driver, DK Sharma, picked us up at the airport and spent the entire trip getting us to all locations effortlessly, with great kindness and assistance. Made the trip, even though timing was short, seem very enjoyable. Our Guide, Mahesh, was very knowledgeable and made the building come to life for us. He was able to answer all questions, get us to all the special spots for view, and organized the day for maximum enjoyment. Totally a 5 star trip!

Overall great experience. My tour guide was amazing. Highly recommend this for cruise passengers who want to visit the Taj Mahal during their cruise. Every issue was quickly solved and the itinerary was perfect. My guide chose amazing hotels, great restaurants, and was indispensable in New Delhi and Agra.

We booked the tour from our cruise ship which did not plan an expedition to the Taj. We were excited to find a tour that could take us to the Taj Mahal from our ship and return us the next port to rejoin our ship after our tour. We flew from Cochin to Delhi where we were picked up from our driver, Bittu, who took care of us for the next two days. We stayed in Agra at the beautiful Jaypee 5 star resort in Agra near the Taj. Our guide Maheesh met us there the next morning and took us on tours of the Taj, the Castle and Fort as well as the "Baby" Taj Mahal. Maheesh was incredibly knowledgeable of the history of all the sites we visited and the culture of the area. We also did some local tours and shopping while in Agra. The final day, we were driven back to Delhi for our flight to rejoin the ship. I cannot begin to tell you how easy it all was. All of our needs were anticipated and our itinerary was well planned and seamlessly executed. I would recommend PCTI, our guide service, to anyone who is traveling in India and wants to experience it and learn about the history and culture, especially first time visitors.

I was expecting the Taj to be majestic (which it was) but the for surprised me on how wonderful it was. Normally we see forts in ruins and the fact that it is so in tact and has such a rich history was a very pleasant surprise. The entire trip though was fantastic and I truly recommend this trip.
