The tour was handled seamlessly by Praveen and team. We were taken around the Taj while sharing interesting information. The whole activity was very organized and very informative. Praveen took us to other destination (hand knotting and tapestry which was very decent and high quality partners. Will highly recommend him and the whole tour.
Awesome final day in

Great Taj Mahal Tour

Ravi driving was a dream. Very easy given the hectic local traffic. To say Rocky is a good tour guide is an understatement. His ability to bypass extremely long lines at the Taj Mahal was mind blowing and saved us immense amounts of time. We would not have been able to do this trip in such a short amount of time. He was extremely knowledgeable about the Taj Mahal as well which was a very big cherry on top.
Great Experience

Rocky and Ravi were great. Ravi was a great driver, and Rocky was able to give us a great tour of the Taj Mahal.
Trip of a life time! Squeeze everything you can out of life YOLO!

Wow, what a day! And by day, I mean 24 FULL hours. Picked up at hotel at 2:30am for the 5:30am flight out of Bangalore and getting me to Delhi for an 8:30am pick-up and 3.5-hour drive to Agra. My driver, RK Pal, was a sweetheart. He went out of his way to make sure I saw everything including a quick night tour of New Delhi (India Gate, Parliament, all of the embassy’s, a cool tunnel with amazing wall decorations, before returning to airport for my 9:45pm PM flight.

Anyway, I have skipped ahead. Let me return to our arrival in Agra and picking up my personal tour guide, Arun Kumar Rajput, at a very beautiful hotel (make sure to use the bathrooms before you leave for the tour and once you are done on your way back to Delhi). Arun Kumar had all the inside track and helped get me to the front of the Queue. The line was easily 2-3 hours and we walked straight in to both the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. He was very knowledgeable and had a real depth for the history. I wish I could remember it all as I would likely be granted a master’s degree in Indian history. Found a nice spot for, what I was told is, a traditional North Indian lunch. Butter chicken with garlic butter Naan.

Bottomline, MAKE SURE you have a private guide, or you could easily spend 2 days in Agra. I would never have seen what I did an made my flight if it wasn’t for Arun Kumar!

Caught my flight back to Bangalore and arrived at 12:30am and was picked up by the same drive that dropped me off, George, and he got me back to the hotel about 2:15am. Make sure you have the stamina for this trip. If I had the choice, I would do it again in a heartbeat. I only had the one day free and felt it important to squeeze as much out of India as I could.

My only reason for not giving 5 starts is the car was a bit small and run down. Would have been nice to have a little more leg room in a newer or cleaner vehicle. I was fortunate enough to have mini vans and SUVs on my other tours.

That said, JUST GO!
