- katarzynam9390 contributionsWonderful trip with Saniya TourI used Saniya Tour and Travels and it was a fantastic experience. Salamat provided excellent service, was always responsive, and went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly. At the end of the trip he invited me to a lovely dinner with his beautiful family, which made the experience even more memorable.

Mr Salamat from Saniya was quick to respond, super understanding and tailored our Agra experience according to our request given that we were only spending one night in Agra. We were met at our hotel by our guide Farid (a punctual fluent English speaker) & driver, Mubeen (car was tidy with perfect air conditioning) who ensured that we had a remarkable experience. Farids knowledge, enthusiasm and vivid descriptions about the love which drove a King to build the Taj Mahal for his wife made the Taj Mahal visit even more majestic. Farids friendliness and fun loving character made him easy to relate and speak to. He also ensured that we saw the different Agra monuments in a specific orders so as to gain an appreciation of the Taj Mahal and Agras history.Written June 4, 2024

He was well organized and brought the history of each monument we visited to life with all the details he gave us. Each tour was tailored specifically for my husband and I, which made it even more enjoyable. Together with Mr Mubeen, Farid made sure that we got to each location on time in a well air conditioned car and constantly provided water for us so we didn’t feel the extreme heat as much. So grateful for this experience as we got to tick an item off our bucket list in the best way possible.Written June 4, 2024

- doctipen170 contributionsTaj Mahal private car tour with Air conditioned Train ride from Delhi to AgraI had a great time with this tour. I was impressed with the coordination and attention to details they spent on my trip to become successful. I got communication from Salamat clearly giving me details on the pick up place time and driver and car details. I was picked up by Raj in my hotel near the airport at 5am sharp and the driver even walked me up to my train seat. Abdul picked me up right on the train platform in Agra Cant station and welcomed me with a marigold garland. We were driven around Agra by our very own private car driver. A transfer to motor tuktuk and a block walk and we got to the Taj Mahal entrance in no time. Taj Mahal was even more beautiful to see in person. Totally unforgettable. Also Agra fort and Mini Taj Was great. Took lots of pictures. They brought me to Bon Barbecue for a delicious buffet lunch. I recommend this company. Thank you Salamat and Abdul!Written February 24, 2024

I am a 24 year old white American female traveling to India alone - needless to say I was very anxious about my travels. I was promptly picked up from the Delhi airport and brought to the train station where I was placed in my train seat. Upon arrival in Agra, Khalid greeted me on the train platform and graciously informed me on the city of Agra all day. His English was excellent and he was very knowledgeable about all the sites we saw and food we ate. At the end of our adventures he made sure I safely made it back onto the train and back to Delhi. I successfully conquered Agra thanks to Khalid.
One con would be that when being picked up from the airport/train stations, I was told that my drivers would have a placard with my name on it which they didn’t and it was very hard to find them. All they had was my picture on their phone trying to find me but today I am wearing a medical mask so they didn’t not recognize me at first. Having a name placard would have made this process a lot easier!
All in all, I would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone!! It helped me put all my worries about India at ease!

Dear Ms Sears Sharon
First of all thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. We are so glad to know that you a great time in Agra with our team. We will definitely convey all your compliments to Khalid.
We understand your concern about not having your name on the placard. Thus far our experience and feedback we have received is in favors of recognizing people by their faces then holding their names. But since due to current scenario you came wearing a mask, it was little difficult coz we were not expecting you wearing a mask. If you have noticed there were very few people using this mask on the train.
Anyways, thanks a lot for recommending us and we ensure that we carry placards also while receiving our guests.

Awesome experience with this tour and particularly with our guide, Sunny. The tour operators basically held our hands throughout the entire day, picking us up from the hotel, handling all the logistics throughout the day, and bringing us back at night. Sunny was charismatic, knowledgeable, and funny. He definitely made the trip so much better than if we had gone on our own. His depth of knowledge on the (extensive) history of the Taj was so admirable. I also liked how he treated the local vendors with respect, facilitating their offers to us without letting us feel pressured to purchase anything.

A fantastic, well-organized private tour that is perfect for first time visitors to India. Thanks to our wonderful guide Farid and driver Mr. Chan, we got to enjoy a perfectly planned day and take in the jaw-dropping sites of Agra without having to worry about a single thing.
This tour is run with the upmost professionalism and hospitality, and great value for money. Some features that we found particularly remarkable:
1. Seamless transport. Our driver was waiting outside our hotel at the exact pickup time. We were escorted through a busy train station all the way to our seats. When we arrived in Agra, our tour guide Farid was waiting on the platform by our train car. At the end of the tour, we were guided back on the train and picked up by our driver back to the hotel. Apart from the train ride, there was never a minute without our guide.
2. Flower garland welcome! When we stepped off the train, we were immediately greeted with a garland of flowers from our guide. It was a cute touch.
3. A professional local tour guide: Farid was clearly very knowledgeable and provided tons of historical information that enhanced our experience of the Taj Mahal and other sites. An added bonus of having an official tour guide with you is ease of going through queues and security at various monuments. We also noticed that hawkers were less likely to bother us in the company of our tour guide.
4. Beautiful photos: Our guide Farid knows all the best shots and angles! We were able to capture beautiful memories of the day without wasting any time.
5. Actually interesting visit to a craftsman shop: I'm usually weary of these visits on tours because I often feel like I'm being sold something. However, this visit was extremely informative, and the craftsmen simply showed off their amazing artistry without ever pushing us to buy. We were even served delicious masala chai.
6. Comfort: Our car was very roomy, air-conditioned, and clean. Our driver made sure we always had bottled drinking water so we were never thirsty. Right before our return train ride, we were even given small snacks and a soft drink, as our tour guide warned us that previous tourists had become ill from eating train food (breakfast, which is included, is okay bc prepared by a different company).
7. Friendly and professional: Honestly, it was just nice to be in the amazing company of our driver and guide for the entire day. Respectful, funny, kind and informative— and deserving of a fantastic review!
TLDR: If you’re looking for the tour that will allow you to see the highlights of Agra in a completely stress free and comfortable way, this is the tour to do!

Having looked forward to this trip for so long it didn’t disappoint! Everything was so well organised and we were guided expertly every step of the way by Farid Baig and our driver Chand. The Taj Mahal is a wonder in its own right but Farid was so informative and he brought the visit to life. He knew the perfect photo opportunities and when it looked like our trip might not happen because of a private visit by the President of Myanmar he put our minds at rest and made sure we were in the right place at the right time. Perfect!!

Tour guide Farid and driver Shahid made our trip to Taj Mahal extremely pleasant. All expenses were included in the price of the tour except for the tip at the end, and drink during lunch. Everything else was paid for and very convenient. You are picked up from your hotel, driver takes you to train and shows you to your seat on train. Served breakfast on train. Farid met us in Agra directly next to the window where we were sitting on the train and guided us right from there. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, even took us to multiple souvenir shops between tours of Taj Mahal, Baby Taj, Red Fort, and out for lunch at an authentic and delicious Indian restaurant. 5 stars!

Like clockwork, I was picked up at my hotel and driven to the Delhi train station, where my driver waited patiently with me and showed me to my seat.The journey was unremarkable. I was promptly greeted by my guide and driver at the Agra station and my tour began. Throughout the tours of the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort, I found my guide to be very knowledgeable and driver friendly and polite. Although the sites were extremely crowded, I was never separated from my guide. I was also given a good and hearty lunch. Upon my return, the Delhi Express was 80 minutes late but my guide waited patiently with me at the Agra Station and my car ride to the hotel was comfortable and smooth. I enjoyed this tour very much nad would recommend it without hesitation.

We had sufficient time at both main sights and had time for a good lunch and some shopping. We also got a fascinating demonstration of how the gems were set in the marble of the Taj Mahal.

This was an excellent trip from start to finish. The day ran perfectly and we were looked after at every step. Our guide, Farid, was brilliant - he was very knowledgable and clearly passionate about Indian history. He bought the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort to life. We also really appreciated Farid's efficiency and guidance on navigating some very hectic, busy areas around these popular sights. Our driver was also friendly and his driving exemplary. A particularly big thanks to both Farid and the driver for sorting out my train ticket at such late notice. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to visit Agra and Taj Mahal on a day trip from Delhi!

We were draped in garlands as soon as we got of the train in Agra and that set the mood for the whole day. Farid the travel guide and his driver Ali were beyond amazing. Farid's passion for the Taj Mahal rubbed onto us and we found ourselves in the life and personality of Shah Jehan. He would point out the smallest details in Taj Mahal that we would have never even noticed had we gone alone. I will not in include any spoilers.
The restaurant we went to had great food and what appeared to be unlimited supply of curries. We were able to shop for marble tables at the end and that was the icing on the cake.
On both ends Delhi and Agra we were accompanied until the train arrived which made us feel safe.
Glad we got to discover the Taj Mahal with Farid.

Ali (our driver in Agra) and Akil (our tour guide) we’re experts in logistics and adaptability. They have the system down to a tee. To illustrate each leg of the trip:
1. A driver texts his contact information the night before.
2. The driver arrives on time and texts his arrival. He’ll greet you outside the hotel entrance in person and bring you to the car
3. The driver will park at the train station and walk you through the platform and to your seat.
4. The next driver will knock on your train seat window when you arrive and greet you when you emerge from the train. He will bring you to the car; then he’ll pick up the tour guide and drop you at the destination.
5. The tour guide will walk with you and show his expertise on the history of the location. He will also offer to take photos with your phone during key moments. He will then escort you back to the driver. The driver will offer you small chilled beverages on every return.
I didn’t really have to worry at all!

To whom it may concern,
My name is Mami Kanzaki, and I participated in the "Delhi to Agra and Taj Mahal Private Day Trip by Express Train with Lunch" on Monday, March 25th. I had a wonderful time. Thank you very much.
On the day of the trip, I had 20 photos taken at the Taj Mahal for 2000 rupees. I received printed copies of the images on the same day, and it was explained to me that I would also receive digital copies at a later date. However, I have already returned to Japan and have not yet received the digital copies. I would appreciate it if you could advise me on how to proceed.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Sincerely,
Mami Kanzaki

We are coming to New Delhi in October 2021. We would very much like to see the Taj Mahal. We were wondering if, after we're shown through the Taj, could we pay extra and have one of your driver takes us to see the River Ganges instead of the afternoon sights. We have seen most of the major rivers of the world and would also like to see the River Ganges.

We would like to stay overnight in Agra and see the Taj Mahal at sunrise. Is it possible to get the train back on the next day?

Sunrise and take an evening train back to Delhi. Please note that Taj Mahal remained closed on Friday and the fastest train also does not operate on Friday). Hence kindly make sure that whenever you plan to visit Agra, it should not be a Friday.

There is a mosque in Taj Mahal and that is still active mosque and on every Fridays Taj Mahal is opened only for the worshippers and for the others it remains closed which is why there is no train and no tour on Fridays and that's why all fridays are blocked...

I personally got picked up from my AirB&B spot. When you book, put in your location of desired pickup + they will meet you there. I had a personal driver. Very professional

Hi. We want to check out the morning of the day trip and then be dropped off at the airport when done for the day. What could we do with our luggage? Will the driver that collects us from Hotel and deliver to airport be the same person and could he/she safeguard our luggage for the day ? Please advise before we book. Thanks

We arrive on a Saturday to New Dehli Airport at 7:35 am. Is it too late or would it be possible to start the tour directly from there whenever we are able to come out of the terminal and then be dropped of on the way back from Agra at our hotel?

Dear guest, the train departs at 8:10am and the airport is around 40 mins drive away from train station, due to which it is very difficult to catch the train on time.
Thanks
