What people are saying about New Delhi
Incredible experience, with a very friendly and knowledgeable guide.
I completely recommend this experience. We had an unforgettable time at the Taj Mahal, no pressure at all to buy anything (photographs etc), to the contrary our guide really helped us navigate through this! The driver was also very professional and the car very clean. Highly recommend.
5th time at the Taj Mahal - Still as impressed as ever!
I visit India very often, if I am travelling with friend, I always make we make a whistle stop to the Taj and Agra Fort. Landing in Delhi at midnight, we were promptly pick up at 3am. Arriving into Agra bu 6h30. We were guided around the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort - with an interesting young guide. We saw everything we need to, without being forced to visit shops or factories. We left and were back around the pool in Delhi by 15h30. There is no need to spend any more time in Agra. It was the perfect trip!
My guide (Sadik) was very professional, informative, and competent.
Sadik, was educated, a wealth of information and tended to my needs as a visitor to Agra. He made me feel safe and let me know what to expect as we toured that day. If I wanted to see something, he would go out of his way to do so. My driver was excellent and used a quality large vehicle.
very impressed with our knowledgeable guide
we had a wonderful time on our street food and walking tour. our guide was prompt, well organized, efficient and fun to talk with. his English was excellent and he had a lot of interesting things to say about the area, its history and architecture. we particularly enjoyed both getting to use the subway and a rickshaw. thanks for a wonderful introduction to old Delhi.
Really good tour of the city old and new
We had already seen a few of the sights on a tour the previous day and so our guide didn’t hesitate to alter his initial plan to ensure we saw new things. The downside of the day was the rain which sadly meant not as much walking as we hadn’t any wet weather clothes with us. The highlight was undoubtedly the Ghandi memorial for us - what a guy! The guide and driver worked well together and we felt very safe with them.
