Taj Mahal with Rocky

Taj Mahal is wonderful. Impossible to imagine something same build on today. Rocky was very good and helpfull. Even the driver Omkar was very good

golden triangle in 2 days !

met at hotel at 5am and put on right train to agra where we were met by driver and the first of 2 guides- rocky was knowledgeable and very aware of where to taake the best photos - also organised wheelchair pusher at taj mahal and red fort.then quite along drive with prem our excellent driver to jaipur. excellent room and breakfast at the hilton . both lunches provided were indian and very good standard.Ashok the second guide for jaipur was excellent and nothing was too much trouble with wheelchair organised and souvenirs bought reasonably.There was shopping and most of the visits were interesting and we bought a few items but also said clearly not interested in buying carpets or jewellery.long drive back to new delhi by car as brought us back to our hotel earlier than the train would have . very well orgaanised and then got them to take us to the airport the next day to fly out . highly recommend- do allow for gratuities for guides who rely on the extra you pay and driver and organise small change for luggage porters etc

Wonderful service, amazing experience

We had an overall excellent experience on our tour. Before our travel dates, company CEO Raj Sharma helpfully communicated with us on details and options. All of the logistics went smoothly, and the escorts to and from the train stations were especially helpful - the stations would definitely have been a bit chaotic and intimidating otherwise! Our driver, Prem, who stayed with us both days and for the long drive between Agra and Jaipur, was friendly and helpful. Our guides, Tony in Agra and Ashok in Jaipur, were knowledgeable and professional and made sure everything ran smoothly, down to identifying the best picture spots and helping navigate aggressive vendors. Ashok in particular was a delightful companion and incredible resource for our day in Jaipur. And the sites themselves were of course amazing. It's hard for anything to compete with the Taj Mahal - it would be worth a visit all by itself - but we really loved our time in Jaipur also. Our hotel for the night (The Lemon Tree) was very nice, our lunch at a local restaurant was delicious, Amber Fort was gorgeous, the City Palace museum was great, and we learned a ton at the fascinating Jantar Mantar. It was a packed but well organized itinerary, and the time at each site felt sufficient for us. The shopping excursions in both Agra and Jaipur may not be for everyone's tastes - the sales pitches at the shops can be a bit heavy-handed by US standards - but we ended up happy with the purchases we made (just remember you're never required to buy anything!). It was a trip of a lifetime for us, and we'd definitely recommend Nikita Holidays and our guides, for anyone considering a visit.

First I should thank the man behind...

<p>First I should thank the man behind the scene Mr Raj Sharma for organising a fantastic tour for us. From the time Sunil Kumar picked us from the hotel we felt that we are confident of what to come. It became really colourful and enjoyable with our Jaipur Guide Mr Farooq. He was the best guide we ever had so far in our Indian tours. not only he listened to all our requests but also his suggestions made it a remarkable memory. We were little worried when the train reached Jaipur little late the surrounding was dark, but when we saw the young silent driver with our names with him we were happy, Dara Singh did his best to make us calm and comfortable. We also got better accommodation than what we were expecting for the total price we paid for. If not for our cancelling Agra shopping part that left us doing nothing for 4 hours in a hotel lobby for the fear of getting ripped off - that we experienced before we would have given five stars for this <br/> excellent tour.</p>

<p>We just completed our 2 day golden triangle tour and loved it. Raj Sharma, the Indian representative/ manager, was in touch with us prior to our trip which was incredibly helpful and reassuring. He tailored our tour to perfectly suit our needs and responded quickly to any and all requests we had. We liked our tour guide, Rocky, in Agra and we especially liked our guide, Ashok, in Jaipur. I would highly recommend this tour if you have limited time and want to see all of the important sites.</p>

A great experience! Great job from...

<p>A great experience! Great job from our guide Tony (who gave an extended history of Taj Mahal) Sundal (who took us through the adventurous world of Jaipur), Sunil (who took us through the colorful busy streets of Delhi) and the fearless drivers. Prem, our driver had great English and driving skills.</p>

I had an excellent two days. I...

<p>I had an excellent two days. I appreciate all the dedication of my driver DK Sharma in Agra and Jaipur. Now, the guides were fantastic, first ManoJ in Agra and then Askosh in Jaipur. ManoJ was fluent in Spanish, my native language, that was a plus. <br/> I highly recommend it!!!!! I loved it!!!!!</p>

The overall experience was...

<p>The overall experience was fantastic! The staff and all locations were knowledgable and very accommodating. Great intro to the golden triangle.</p> <p> The only issue we experienced was the elephant ride at Amber Fort in Jaipur. Your brochure advertises ascend the imposing fort on a decorated painted elephant and before I booked the trip, I reconfirmed with a member of your company that this was part of the tour package and there were no additional charges and was told yes. Well, before we depart Agra, the tour company management approached me and said if we wanted to do the elephant ride, we needed to pay extra. After a very uncomfortable conversation, I'm sure for both parties, we came to the agreement that our group was not going to pay anything additional and still receive the service advertised. My recommendation, is to either change want is advertised or ensure the tour companies you use at the distant end clearly understand what they are required to provide so that the visitor isn't dealing with this type of situation on their vacation.</p>

INCREIBLE EXPERIENCIA

fue una excelente decisión tomar este tour en la India. En poco tiempo pudimos conocer sitios impresionantes con nuestros guías en agra y Jaipur quienes nos dieron información detallada de la historia de los sitios visitados. El Idioma no fue problema ya que nuestros guías hablaban español perfecto.
