Door to door trip to Taj Mahal from Chennai - Had a really nice time with Ray at the Taj Mahal. Guided tour and expert knowledge.
Omar, the driver was safe and efficient from Delhi Airport despite heavy traffic.
The organisation of the logistics was complete although a bit last minute. It all worked out in the end but confirmations only made within 24 hours prior to departure. Would recommend getting the WhatsApp number for the company straight away and communicate through there rather than TripAdvisor.
Flights with Air India and IndiGo which were efficient.
Overall, recommend this tour!!

Great guided tours - Unlike our prior fears, our guide showed up on time at the designated location, perfectly organising the tour. At each of the tourist attractions, they gave me their own expert guide, and at the Taj Mahal and other tourist attractions, I was able to get a very smooth and detailed explanation. When I turned him down because I couldn't be bothered to stop by souvenir shops and other shops, he didn't look bad and accepted my request.

Taj Mahal in 1 Day. - Trip includes everything. No extra fees or surprises. Taxi from hotel to airport. Air India plane tickets (round trip) BOM-DEL-BOM. Private driver to/return to Agra. Private Taj Mahal tour guide includes all entry fees. Taxi from BOM airport to hotel.
Although we flew unescorted, we received detailed instructions on our trip.
Drive to/from Agra is more than 3 hours each way. Mr KK was an excellent driver and he spent time with us to explore the Indian culture during the long journey. Great personality and informative. Good job.
Taj Mahal guide was Mr Raj. During the long walk around the estate we were presented with a chronological history of the king who built the monument to his wife. He looked after our safety and security during the travel throughout the afternoon. He took us, at our special request, to see original hand made artworks. Tour was excellent. Raj our guide spent more than 5 hours touring together.
This is a very special experience. Taj Mahal is a world treasure. This trip far exceeded our expectations. Must go.
Warning: Hotel pickup was at 3am, Hotel drop-off was at 3am next morning. I highly recommend this trip, and the driver Mr KK and tour guide Raj.

Great tour! - The tour was perfectly organized and everything was very smooth! KK (driver) and Raj (guide) did an excellent job throughout day. Of course, it won’t be many hours in Agra, but definitely enough to cover both Taj Mahal and Agra Fort.

Might be better to make own arrangements to and from Delhi/Agra. - Delhi/Agra side was perfect - driver and guide were first-rate. Taj Mahal was amazing. But outside of this, organization, preparation and communication were poor, leaving us fraught with anxiety, culminating in arriving back in Chennai and no driver to collect us at 2am. No checking in with us at points throughout the day. Not for the inexperienced traveler, much less tourist.
