Excellent Tour

Great tour , clean vehicle and guide Kamran was very knowledgeable and took great photos .Also they were happy to take you to additional sites if you wanted . And for us the added benefit was we told the guide we didn’t want to be taken to shops and they fulfilled our request.

Great day tour of Jaipur

Kamran was very helpful and resourceful and got us into every place quickly. He was very accommodation of our requests and arranged for things not in our program. He took good care of us. He made arrangements for our elephant ride even though it was closed at the main point. He had good knowledge of the history of every place we visited.

Great trip and highly recommended

really great experience the driver was lovely and very caring, the guide was really informative and I learnt so much about the history behind each place we visited - highly recommended

Great quick private tour of the key sites

We enjoyed our private tour half day tour of Jaipur this morning. Our guide Nadeem was very good and I appreciated that he was able to adapt to specific requests that we had to make sure we got the most out of our tour in the limited time. Our driver Kamal was excellent and provided us with a clean car with plenty of AC and cool water to keep us feeling fresh in the extreme heat. I also appreciate that we weren't pressured into making the usual stop at a boutique or factory to buy souvenirs. Overall a very good tour that I would recommend to people with limited time.

Overall great experience

I was very happy with my time in Jaipur (now my favorite city in India). Ram Singh was my driver and was very friendly and accommodating. Tahir Hussain was my tour guide and provided a very informational tour of 5 different sites in Jaipur. My tour package was a little different and was inclusive of round trip train tickets from Agra, foreigner entrance fees to all sites, a private tour guide (Tahir Hussain), and a private car (driver’s name is Ram Singh). One major thing that could be improved in my package is the education of India’s train system prior to departure. As a foreigner I found it very difficult to understand which train, platform, and seat number I should go to. I was told that I would be given a first class ticket (which I was according to the ticket) and I expected a spacious seat. Instead, I was actually given a bottom sleeper bed and was a little uncomfortable (other riders tend to sit on your bed or even take it if they see it’s empty). This was a last minute trip so I think its okay, but I think this should be better explained for future tours.

Amer fort

It was a amazing experience to visit amer fort. Instructor give us lot of information about it like he told us that this fort belongs to king man Singh. Amer Fort is known for its artistic style elements and has series of big gates which attracts tourists.

Amazing

The Guide have the guide perfectly manages the themes, the taxi driver is very kind also. I recommended 100%

First visit with fiancé

Mohammed explained everything well and found us a great photographer to help us. The tour guide was so friendly and very informative and funny! Even though we were sleep deprived he made us have a good time.

Sunrise view of Taj Mahal

Our guide was great. Very knowledgeable and informative, and also took great photos of me and the wife. He was also very considerate and always made sure they we are feeling ok and comfortable. Our driver was also really good and made sure we get to Agra on time. Definitely recommend !

Great Taj and Agra Tour

This is a great trip plan for anyone with a day in Agra. Our tour guide was very flexible and focused on making the visit to Agra a very memorable experience for us. From the time of pickup at the Agra Cantt station we felt welcomed and cared for. Arriving at the Taj we were briefed on what to expect from those trying to hustle us. Our guide easily navigated us to the ticket area were we purchased our Foreign Tourist passes for 1,000 Rupees each, this comes with a bottle of water and shoe covers for the actual walking on the Taj. One challenge is the many photographers who insist on taking your picture for a 100 rupee per print. Our guide was very helpful in negotiating only for a small number of their select poses and shots. Even though we had our own DSLR camera, it was well worth the 10 pictures my Wife settled for (had to cut her down from 30 LoL). These are great poses that we would not have been able to do on our own, I do recommend considering it, it money well spent. Lunch was great and I must say once again the flexibility of the tour guide is incredible for any situation that you may have. I highly recommend anyone stopping in Agra to consider this option as you can expand or shrink as you wish. We were picked up at Agra Cantt and dropped off at the Agra Fort station for onward travels to Jaipur. Job well done and beautiful memories of Agra...no pressure at any of the stops.

Local Tour of Agra City

Though his tour was designed to meet our wish for meeting "the real India" it exceeded our expectations! The informative guide, Faizan, showed us around in the local marked which wasn't used to tourists. It was near Faizans home and he knew the locals very well and he was helpful in all our purchases. What exceeded our expectations was visiting two homes, including his own, where we felt welcome and which gave a good intercultural understanding. The driving was save and we also visited a mosque, a common hindu tempel and the "Baby Taj Mahal".

Pros: Upon being picked up by the...

<p>Pros: Upon being picked up by the guide, I learned that this tour that I booked through Viator but did not have a local company's name attached . My guide was good - friendly, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. We did a full day of sightseeing the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Fatepur Sikri, Baby Taj, and the Mehtab Gardens. He was full of stories to tell about every location.</p> <p>Cons: Here's where I feel bad writing this, because technically, my guide Mukul was a skilled guide. However, I did not appreciate the high pressure sales that were imposed on me, despite the numerous times I said I was there to see places, not shop. Despite this, he tried to take me to a marble factory/shop, pashmina scarf shop, other gift shops, and carpet shop. That's FOUR times in one day where I kept saying that I would not buy, but he kept pressuring me just to see the items without buying - except that in every store, the salesperson spoke to me like I was there to purchase.</p> <p>Secondly, there was no bottled water provided, where it was listed in my tour booking that it would be provided.</p> <p>Thirdly, I felt cheated at the Taj Mahal. When we arrived, he told me to leave my DSLR camera in the car, and that You cannot take anything into the Taj Mahal, which is a flat out lie. I persisted, and brought my small bag with cell phone and money with me, as I believed it to be a language barrier when he said I could not bring -anything- in with me. I was very disheartened to see many tourists with their SLRs inside the Taj Mahal, when I had been wanting to photograph it for my entire life.</p> <p>Once we were in, he continued the lie by saying that you need a special pass to have a DSLR inside the grounds. I spoke to other tourists, and that simply was not true. On top of this, he told me that his friend would take my pictures for me inside, which ended up running me 5000 rupees 100 USD to get any of the photos of myself from the Taj. Not OK.</p>

Goede tour voor aantrekkelijke prijs

We hadden de tour op voorhand geboekt aan een zeer aantrekkelijke prijs. De auto met gids was er mooi op tijd. De gids was vriendelijk, zeer aandachtig aan ons welzijn (soms iets te) en hij gaf zeer duidelijke uitleg over de Taj Mahal, Agra Fort en Baby Taj. Ondanks klein misverstand is alles goed verlopen. We hadden namelijk een sunrise to sunset tour geboekt, maar om 11u hadden we de twee monumenten al gezien. Na wat aandringen en telefoontjes naar zijn manager, hebben ze uiteindelijk aanvaard om ons rond 16u terug aan ons hotel op te pikken en ons naar Baby Taj en de Mehtab Bagh te brengen, waar we een prachtig uitzicht op de Taj hadden. Ik raad deze tour zeker aan, maar zorg dat de planning van beginsaf aan duidelijk is voor iedereen.
