I truly recommend booking a day tour of Delhi with Joyful Holidays. I booked them through TripAdvisor. The driver and the guide were at the hotel at 9 am sharp and drove us to the monuments that we had planned to see. Our guide was very knowledgeable. He gave us great information, and was very patient. We took many pictures at all the locations closing the day with a thrilling visit to the Lotus Temple which was the cherry on the cake. It's definitely worth the money!!!

I visited Taj Mahal Agra with my family. The driver was always on time and very responsible. The car was also very clean and there was sufficient water in the car for us to drink. Our Tour Guide was very knowledgeable. We thank Sonia Hands and Joyful Holidays for arranging this memorable trip for us. Although it was a short trip. Next we will spend more time for Golden Triangle Tour.

Booked this your through TripAdvisor and wasn't disappointed. After booking online, Sonia from Joyful Holidays made contact through WhatsApp to make sure all our needs were met. We were picked up from our hotel in Delhi on time by our driver Raj. He was polite and safely guided us through the busy traffic. He even took the time to stop on the journey to buy us cups of tea. On arrival in Agra we were met by our excellent and knowledgeable guide, Mr AS Khan. He really knows his stuff and was infectious in his enthusiasm for the history surrounding the famous monuments of this city. First stop was the Taj Mahal in time to see the sunrise. Amazing!! As we were there early we were able to beat the crowds. Following our visit we then went for some breakfast and then onto the Agra Fort. Very impressive and Mr Khan again was very informative. We then went for lunch which was included in the price, and buffet style at a hotel. Following lunch it was onto the Baby Taj. Again an amazing place to visit. Following this we were taken to the Metahb Bagh gardens where you can see the Taj Mahal from across the river. Well worth the visit. As we had an early morning flight from Delhi the following morning we chose to skip the sunset viewing of the Taj Mahal. However, we had a long but brilliant day in Agra and as a bonus entrance to all the sights was free as it was World Heritage Day. Not a cheap day out but thoroughly worth the money.
