      Must do tour whilst in Agra
      Excellent tour - a must do! We did the tour on a tuc tuc not bicycles, experience authentic unspoiled India, off the tourist track, we visited local families who welcomed us into their homes, identified local crops, met children in the school learning. Lots of smiles and hellos as you drive through the local village. Would highly recommend this tour - Ahmed was informative friendly and a fabulous guide, the three drivers were safe pleasant and courteous. The whole trip was a pleasure and delighted we did it.

      Must try - great alternative view of Agra
      Really enjoyed the cycling tour - I was worried about the roads being busy but we went early enough that the cycling was easy and very enjoyable. It was also great to see another perspective of life in Agra - away from the busy and tourist focused areas. Really great insight into village life and the people were very open and friendly. Would definitely recommend to anyone in Agra to see an insiders view of life in India.

      Amazing tour
      Amazing early morning sunrise tour. We chose the electric tuk tuk and walk. Beautiful insights into rural life and so welcoming. Sadly the Taj Mahal was covered in fog but it didn’t matter as we saw it later. The people and the welcome made it al so worthwhile. Thank you

      Private view of Taj Mahal at sunset by bike
      Really fun adventure round the villages of Agra. Quite hairy cycling back in the dark but fun negotiating the cars/ bikes/tuk tuk/cows/goats/ dogs! Lovely visit to local family - was slightly nervous but needn’t have been - they were so hospitable and willing to show us their home. Fab 2 hours in Agra

      Not sure if this was an official tour but they tailored the experience for us as we had already done villages, crafts and food. Big thank you to our guide, Mukesh Kushwah, for an informative tour - lots of history as well as insights into today's Indian culture. And great English. Highly recommend.

      Foodies delight - highly recommend
      Great walk through the busy bazaars and streets of food with our wonderful guide, Amit. Don't eat before hand - so much food to taste, we were stuffed! Also interesting to see the old and the new parts of the city on our travels. Thank you Amit.

      A perfect cycling experience in sight of the Taj Mahal
      It was wonderful to be out in the countryside in early morning. The views were stunning, and we had some very unexpected glimpses of the Taj Mahal. Our guide, Ahmed gave us a great tour and he was very good company. We enjoyed refreshments on route with a local family which was very special. It is an easy cycle and highly recommend including this in a visit to Agra.

    If there is any star less than 1 I would give that rating to this company. This company is a scam and a fraud and my advise to everyone who earned their livelihood by honesty to avoid using this company in any circumstances and this company is a total fraud and scam. Thanks

    Terrible travel company and its owner is totally dishonest, avoid using this company. Miserable company and its owner, when one asks owner then he doesn’t care and try not to answer you. This is the reason I had to come here and write to make others aware about the company and its owner.

    After seeing the Taj Mahal and Red Fort, I spent the afternoon exploring the Old City of Agra with VJ as my guide. This was a really special experience--VJ has developed relationships with a local temple and several local businesses, which gave me a very personal experience to interact with local folks and made me feel welcome in places I wouldn't normally have gone. My favorite part was being inside a Hindu temple during a service and being invited and encouraged to take pictures of everything. VJ translated some of the service for me, and then let me sit quietly for a while to take it all in. Thank you so much, VJ, for an amazing afternoon!

    My friends and I have done the Discovering Oriental Agra tour with Agra Beat and it was one of the best experiences that I have done; I have done many tours around the world, but this was one of the best; we felt very comfortable with VJ, he spoke very good english, he explained everything very well and always had a smile on his face; we highly recommend connecting with him while in India to do this discovering Oriental Agra Program. 5 star for this tour.

    Amit was a wonderful guide for the Discovering Oriental Agra tour (information available on the agrabeat website). The walking tour through the lanes of old Agra was fun and Amit obviously had very good relationships with every local food stall and shop owner we encountered. If you would like to see Agra beyond the monument circuit and get a real taste for life in the city, choose Agra Beat!

    My husband and I spent a few days in Agra recently and booked to go on this tour with AgraBeat because we were interested in seeing this area of the city. We were picked up from our hotel on time by our excellent guide Amit who guided us through the railway station and over the bridge into a part of the city we would never have ventured into on our own. Amit took us through the streets to places of interest where we met some lovely local people and tried some of the food being prepared at the various street stalls. At no time did we feel uncomfortable or nervous about being there – it was a wonderful experience and we can’t thank Amit and AgraBeat enough for enabling it for us. Thank you so much Amit from your friends in Scotland.
