Agra Amazing Tour - Great experience! Farhan, the tour guide, did an awesome job! He was really friendly and shared precise historic information on each of the sites we visited. The driver, Raza, was also friendly and very professional. We totally recommend them for Agra tour. Thank you for everything!

Excellent experience! - Our experience touring the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and the Baby Taj was absolutely incredible—made even more special by our guide, Khan. His deep knowledge and storytelling brought the rich history of each site to life. Walking through the Taj Mahal with him felt like stepping back in time, and his insights into the Fort and the Baby Taj added so much depth and context to the day.
Unfortunately, we didn’t visit the shops on this trip, as we weren’t interested at the time—but I have no doubt it would be a great experience as well.
Overall, this was a well-rounded and memorable experience. Khan is an outstanding guide, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Agra.

Great trip - It was safe to drive and the guide's Japanese was very fluent and easy to understand.
He became familiar with the history of the Taj Mahal.
It was easy for them to do all the ticketing.

Holidays to Rishikesh - Shaan was very helpful and very attentive with all the places we toured, I traveled with my mom and he was very aware of her. We really enjoyed our stay in India and especially Rishikesh. If you have the opportunity to request a guide, I recommend Shaan.
Cheers!
