Everything was confirmed ahead of time and the driver was prompt in picking us up from the hotel. The tour of the Taj Mahal was very informative let us go at our own pace. Highly recommend!

I can't recommend this tour enough. We were picked up from our hotel at 6am by our driver Vishan. Vishan was very friendly and spoke good English, he was very knowledgeable of the area and we had great conversation with him on our drive to Agra. We picked up our tour guide Schubi once in Agra and made our way to the Taj Mahal. What can I say amazing!!! Schubi was a fantastic tour guide, he spoke great English and was very helpful in taking photos for us. He was also very knowledgeable. We also toured the Agra fort, we also visited the workshop where hand knotted Kashmir rugs are made .. We saw artisans doing hand embroidery and marble work. Overall I highly recommend this tour if you want a day trip to Agra and the Taj Mahal.

I had a wonderful experience on my day trip to Agra. As a female solo traveler, I was a bit nervous (especially doing the sunrise tour and driving in the middle of the night). Prem, my driver, was fantastic and made me feel perfectly safe. Once I got to Agra, I met my guide, Arun Raj Put. He was also fantastic. He was knowledgeable about the sites and was an amazing picture taker (he knew all the great spots for photos). Both spoke English and were very personable. I highly recommend this tour. One note, it was very chilly in the morning so dress warmly if you do the sunrise tour.

Great service. They picked me up from my hotel in a nice car, the explanation it was just for me. Manuj the guide, speaks very good spanish and took me very nice pictures. Raj, Ravi and Manuj great team, great experience
Probably my only recommendation would be to have another package including the visit to the Taj Mahal returning at night to have the view in the morning and with the moon light.
