Its impossible not to enjoy Taj Mahal! However, do make sure to be there either early in the morning or closer to sunset. The hot will take away from the beauty and experience. Our recommendation to go there early morning at sunrise with the guide, learn about the place, and then go by yourself for the sunset to enjoy, take your time and pictures. The guides might make it feel a bit rushed.

We loved everything about the tour. Our tour guide Aashish Gupta was very helpful and he even came to pick up us from the hotel and even came to drop us to the hotel. He is knowledgeable and told us the history and amazing stories of Taj Mahal. He answered every single question we asked and he is one of the best tour guide we have ever met. I recommend him to everyone. Looking forward for more trips with you.

As a solo traveller, I found this tour so suitable, all thanks to my guide Mr Wasim. He knows and understands the moments of solitude and reflection that solo travellers need especially at great monuments. Mr Wasim is very articulate in explaining the histories of the places we went. He revealed to me the uniqueness of various nooks and crannies of each site that are special knowledge. Mr Wasim is a very flexible and a very understanding host. I have never found any host better than him for Agra.
