Sunny and our driver were fantastic to spend the day with! Sunny is very knowledgeable and I learned so much about the agra fort and the Taj Mahal! He also recommended a great place for lunch. He was super helpful and I would definitely take another tour with him. He is a superstar and if I could give him six stars, I would!

Great day at the Taj and Agra fort! Our guide Cozi Khan was great:) got us the best shots while the sun was coming up then gave us loads of info on both sights. We also saw some extra places like the gem and fabrics shop and the marble crafting facilities.

Good: knowledgable guide, clean and tidy car, and a good driver. Both provided good area knowledge and made the tour worthwhile. Areas to improve: provide guide an entry ticket so clients don’t have to pay for them. Also, I’d request any future guides slow down so the experience isn’t rushed, we completed a lot of monuments in a very short time span. Finally, and although it’s difficult, the language barrier sometimes made it difficult to communicate from both the clients and guides perspectives. This was mentioned during the tour and it did improve.
