Highlights
- Taj Mahal - The Taj Mahal (“Crown of the Palaces”)is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the south bank of the Yamuna river in the Indian city of Agra. It was commissioned in 1632 by the Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan (reigned from 1628 to 1658), to house the tomb of his favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
Construction of the mausoleum was essentially completed in 1643 but work continued on other phases of the project for another 10 years. The Taj Mahal was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983 for being “the jewel of Muslim art in India.
- Agra Fort - Agra Fort is a historical fort in the city of Agra in India. It was the main residence of the emperors of the Mughal Dynasty until 1638, when the capital was shifted from Agra to Delhi. In 1983, the Agra fort has been inscribed as UNESCO World Heritage site.The fort can be more accurately described as a walled city.
Agra Fort is the only fort in India where all early Mughal emperors lived. The Fort stands on an ancient site and was traditionally known as Badalgarh.

An unforgettable trip - Travelling to India for business I decided to travel a day early to take this tour. What a fantastic decision. An early pick up at 3am was recommended and is worth it, being able to see the Taj Mahal in the early morning light is truly amazing.
The whole trip was beautifully organised by Manish our driver and Vikram my tour guide. Always ensuring I was well catered for, and enjoying this amazing visit. A special mention for Vikram - his knowledge and enthusiasm for the history and detailed art in the Taj Mahal and Agra fort really made this tour extra special.
I look forward to bringing my children to Agra in the future and would repeat the tour with these guys. Money very well spent.

Fantastic trip - Our driver Nawel and our guide Nand assured us a fantastic trip in Agra. The journey by car was great even in the chaotic indian traffic. They granted us fresh water in a very hot day in Agra and performed a fantastic guide during the day. Suggested activity.

Great visit to Taj Mahal and Agra Fort - Very professionally organized trip. Good quality car with the driver who spoke fluent English. The guide was super professional and went to extra mile with the service during visits to Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. In addition, he is a really talented photographer. The restaurant for lunch was also high quality offering tasty Indian food. Overall I can warmly recommend this trip and service provider.

10/10 woman solo experience thanks to Sachin! - My experience with this company was 10/10, but most importantly because of Sachin, my driver! As my first time in India for a work trip, I wanted to extend my trip but was nervous as a solo woman traveler.
Due to this, I spoke to Sachin a day prior to my tour to ease my nerves as a woman getting picked up going 3 hours alone to the Taj Mahal at 3am. Sachin was so kind and understanding of all of this, he ensured I felt safe by giving his number, license plate & photò to my colleague to ensure I was in good hands. He even went as far as calling him to give brief updates. He kept all the waters chilled in the hot day, and even asked frequently if I needed to pull over or stop for restroom breaks on the way there, and even let me turn on some amazing tunes on the ride!
If booking this tour, I would ask specially for Sachin as a driver!!! He is a very good driver and has been working for this company for over 10+ years, he knows what he’s doing!
Thank you Sachin!!

TAKE THIS TOUR! You won’t regret it! (Also, they are very well run for a good price!) - As a solo traveler, it can be difficult to trust people or groups. You can trust these guys.
This tour organization is fantastic and reputable. Their staff is excellent, my driver was awesome, and they take you to all the sites, as well as a DELICIOUS restaurant. Strongly strongly recommend.
I will be recommending them to all my family and friends in the future. Thank you TripAdvisor for connecting me to them!
If you are reading this-and are looking to make sure that everything is legit-you can trust them. On the food, amazing. On the comfort of the ride, fantastic. On the customer service, fantastic. On the sights, saw them all! Extremely beautiful!

Private Sunrise Tour of Taj Mahal - The driver and tour experience was incredible, I highly recommend this experience if you are planning to visit the Taj Mahal from Delhi, especially for an early morning trip.
Our driver Manish was ready to pick us up from the Delhi airport at 3am - I was given his contact information a day beforehand which made planning and communication much less stressful. Manish is a great driver and the car was comfortable and cool.
In Agra, our Taj Mahal tour guide Vikram joined us and helped us navigate through the Taj Mahal.
Vikram is super knowledgeable and a phenomenal story teller - we really enjoyed having him as a tour guide.

Marble Delight! - The tour was amazing, and the tour guide Hassan is very knowledgeable about the relevant history of the Taj Mahal and the Agra Fort. The handicraft shop that you'll visit is just so wonderful as well, it's scary! I could easily leave all my money there and just by all the marble!
The driver was very good and careful too. You know, driving in India ain't easy. Mahendra managed really well!
