About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- BOJOThomas0 contributionsNot a positive experience..The description says pickup is included. This meant the guide would greet us at the hotel and then ask us to pay for a tuk tuk to the start location. All in all the walk lasted for less than an hour. We visited a mosque and were asked to pay for a man to look after our shoes for less than 10 mins. We were taken through a crazy market full of honking vehicles and gridlocked traffic with people. The guide said little during the way other than lead us through the horrific traffic. We did not learn anything about the history of the place or anything remotely interesting. We made our way back after the tour but not before the guide offered his services the next day. Would not recommend this tour to anyone. Honestly waste of time and money. Not sure where all the previous positive reviews came from. We have been on lots of guided tours in the past and we have lots to compare this tour with. This was not a good tour. Tip to the organiser to improve the experience - arrange a meeting point that is central which can be accessed easily, when you advertise "pick up in included" this means that the person should be picked up from the location, consider telling people much more about the history of the place and engage the customer by asking questions, simply pointing to something in a market and saying "this is the wedding section" is not enough, any costs that need to be spent by the guest needs to be mentioned in the booking upfront and finally if the tour is advertised as 2-3 hours then it should be 2-3 hours and not 50 mins.Written February 16, 2025
- J7199NZneilp0 contributionsGreat view of Agra History & Agra life todayRitik was a great guide full of insights from the origins of Agra to the present day. We strolled through markets, visited a Shiva Temple and saw some wonderful handicraft art. Ritik gives a great feel if the city, what it is like to live here today and what some of his favorite places are. We talked about weddings, fashion, food and mogul kings and dynasties and the art of driving in Agra! If you really want to feel at home in Agra and love history, culture and the city experience would really recommend this tour. Thank you Ritik for great fun and conversation along the way …Written December 4, 2024

- 701marisap0 contributionsGreat experience!The guide took us to hidden spots around taj mahal, throught the small streets of the old town, and we had an amazing and empty view from the sunset. We went to a really fancy bar with Taj view for a beer after sunset. I highly reccomend him for a non obvious walking tour in AgraWritten April 15, 2024

- K9981EZroberts0 contributionsHighly recommend working with Trocals to customize your trip of a lifetime15 days - 7 cities - 100’s of amazing memories! It’s been a life dream to experience India. This trip superseded all our expectations. It was like taking several college courses - antiquities, religious history, military history, and cuisine. We had an amazing driver who navigated the over the top and bizarre traffic situations. The guides were each local city experts who were well versed and adapted well to our interests. The hotels were upscale, clean and served excellent food. Ritik was ever vigilant and responsive. A joy to work with and always leveled headed and charming.Written January 31, 2024
- seaprincess20130 contributionsPerfect tour ...Beyond the TajI did the sunset walk this afternoon. The Guide was super informative and really pleasant. He walked me round where only locals go and it was really enlighting to hear little known facts about the Taj Mahal and the wives of the Shah. Then, a little a surcharge for a quick ride out to the middle of the River Yamuna for a wonderful view of the Taj. 100% worth it. I was so impressed with Trocals, I booked another tour tomorrow.Written January 30, 2024
- rwong840 contributionsHIGHLY RECOMMENDED.This was one of the most interesting tours we experienced in India. We got to experience a part of the city that we would not have experienced on our own. Ritik was very knowledgeable and interesting. Also he is legitimately fluent in English. This was not true of alot of the English speaking tour guides we had on our trip. I highly recommend this tour and wish we had book more tours with Trocals.Written January 4, 2024
- Seaside2869050 contributionsMemorable visitThanks to Asif, my visit to the Taj and the Agra Fort were the most memorable of our trip. A sif is a great professional, formal, with perfect English, and above all he has a wisdom and passion for the history of his country and the Taj. He has shared with us the history and culture of these places, which has made it a memorable visit for me.Written December 12, 2023

I had a fabulous experience as coordinated by Ritik! Both guides, Sadhev and Kapil were outstanding! Their knowledge of the history of each of the sites they were showing was deep and they had an excellent approach to sharing the stories in a very informative and interesting way. One highlight of the tour was the Indian Food Cooking demonstration at Ritiks home with his mother cooking delicious Indian recipes. All the arrangements were fantastic, drivers were great and always on time. I highly recommend Ritik and his team. I am leaving this part of India with many wonderful memories and pictures of 2.5 days in a very beautiful and historic part of India.

This was a really fun alternative to all of the guided history tours we had made in the previous weeks here in India. A car picked us up from our hotel here in Agra and took us to the host’s lovely family home only 15 mins or so away. Our host Ritik, spoke excellent English and translated and explained everything while his Mother cooked. We were shown and in parts also got hands on in how to make Chai, roti, Dahl, yoghurt and a mixed vegetable dish and dips/sauces. All in all a really enjoyable few hours and good to support a local family too. Left with full bellies and a ride back to the hotel. Highly recommended.

Nice cooking class in a modern home with a great family. It was more watching and learning with some parts we could try out ourselves. We made tea, Dal and snacks. Duration was 1.5h including eating the cooked meals.

This experience was the top of the cherry for our group trip, as a leader of tours and high impact experiences in India, it was very pleasant to be able to trust that the cooking class would be a top one.
Everything is provided, it is sustainable (no use of plastics), and the family is the best.
Will come back for sure
