- D3208XCnathanh0 contributionsTrip of a Lifetime!We had an excellent day with Praveen (Rocky). He was very knowledge and helpful throughout the tour. Sonu, our driver, was also very kind and courteous. Overall, it was an excellent experience - thank you!Written November 29, 2024
- mauricioaR4720SD0 contributionsAmazing tour experienceAmazing tour with driver K.K and tour guide Rajni Kant , the pasion and dedication to explain all in details was out of this world. Recommend 1000%Written November 29, 2024
- K1480GAlauram0 contributionsTaj Mahal at Sunrise - you gotta be happy with that!I scheduled a pick up from the Jaipur airport at 2 am, driver was on time and had signage which was great. Fast trip (relatively) to Agra and we arrived at 6 am. Roci the guide met me at a prearranged hotel lobby and we began the tour at 6:45 am. The Taj Mahal did not disappoint and Roci had some great information to share, he’s also good at getting the right photos at the right time. I was not there for the Instagram shoot but it was clear that 50% of the people visiting were only there for this reason. Lots of options for that around on site (roaming “professional” photographers but Roci also seems very capable in this regard 😂 We also visited Agra Fort which was super to see but the day is long and after this visit I was ready for the drive back to Jaipur. But, as with every tour, it also involved some visits to local handicraft places and I did enjoy this but was pretty clear by the end of the second visit that I was not interested in being sold anything more! Roci definitely understood! The drive back was painfully long midday (almost 6 hours) so I would encourage a stay over in Agra with a drive back the next morning with less traffic.Written November 27, 2024
- Connector209137032170 contributionsGreat trip once in a lifetimeOur guide Rajni Kant was excellent took care of us very well and was very informative regarding the history. He took us to the best places to view the Taj Mahal and also carpet and marble artisans with no pressure to buy. Also our driver Manoz was brilliant how he negotiated the traffic was amazing.Written November 27, 2024
- K7030WFtracyb0 contributionsFabulous - memories for a lifetime 🥰I cannot recommend this company highly enough. All aspects of my travel arrangements, pick ups, drivers and tour guides were exemplary. A special mention of Vijay-my guide and Mr Omkar-my driver from Delhi airport to Agra, around Agra and back to the airport. Both of these gentlemen were kind, courteous, thoughtful and extremely knowledgeable. I hope I can retain the wealth of historical information that I’ve learned. In addition, thanks to Vijay, I have the best photos I could have ever wished for and Mr Omkar navigated the crazy traffic perfectly. The Taj Mahal was as incredible as can be imagined as was Agra Fort. The hand embroidery and inlay sessions were enlightening. I don’t have any negative issues to report at all - Thank you, thank you and thank you 🤩Written November 26, 2024

- alexjamesbx0 contributionsBeautiful 6-Day Golden Triangle Tour Full of Culture, History, and Delicious FoodI recently embarked on the 6-Day Golden Triangle Tour to Jaipur and Agra from Delhi with Nikita Holidays, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable travel experiences I’ve ever had. This trip not only covered some of India’s most iconic landmarks but also gave me a taste of its rich culture, fascinating history, and mouthwatering cuisine. Day 1: Departure from Delhi The journey began in Delhi, where I was picked up promptly. The car was clean and comfortable, ensuring a relaxed start to the tour. The drive to Jaipur took a few hours, and along the way, I got to see rural India, with its scenic landscapes and small villages. Day 2: Exploring the Pink City – Jaipur Arriving in Jaipur, I was immediately struck by the city’s vibrant colors and architectural beauty. Known as the “Pink City,” Jaipur is famous for its royal heritage and iconic monuments. The first stop was Amber Fort, which was an absolute highlight. Built on a hill, the fort is a mix of Mughal and Rajput architecture. Walking through its grand courtyards, intricately designed palaces, and mirrored halls felt like stepping back in time. The view from the fort, overlooking the surrounding hills and Maota Lake, was breathtaking. Later, we visited the City Palace, which is still partially a royal residence. The museum inside showcased royal costumes, weaponry, and artifacts that told stories of Jaipur’s glorious past. Another must-see was Hawa Mahal, or the “Palace of Winds.” Its unique façade, with countless small windows designed for royal ladies to watch processions without being seen, was mesmerizing. Food in Jaipur: The food in Jaipur was as unforgettable as its sights. I tried dal baati churma, a traditional Rajasthani dish consisting of lentils, baked wheat dumplings, and a sweet crumbly dessert. Another standout was laal maas, a spicy red meat curry that was rich and flavorful. The sweets, particularly ghewar and mawa kachori, were delightful. In the evening, I explored the bustling bazaars of Jaipur, filled with colorful textiles, jewelry, and handicrafts. Shopping here was an experience in itself, and I left with some beautiful souvenirs. Day 3: Jaipur to Agra The journey from Jaipur to Agra was a scenic drive through rural landscapes. On the way, I made a quick stop at Fatehpur Sikri, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This ghost town, built by Emperor Akbar, is an architectural marvel. The Buland Darwaza, the largest gateway in the world, was particularly impressive. Day 4: The Taj Mahal – A Dream Come True Arriving in Agra, the highlight was, of course, the Taj Mahal. No matter how many photos you’ve seen, nothing prepares you for the beauty of this iconic monument in person. The white marble structure, shimmering in the sunlight, was breathtaking. Learning about its history and the love story behind its construction made the visit even more special. Food in Agra: Agra has its own unique culinary heritage, and I made sure to indulge in local delicacies. The famous petha, a sweet made from ash gourd, is a must-try. I also enjoyed bedai with aloo sabzi for breakfast, a crispy fried bread served with spicy potato curry. Agra’s Mughlai cuisine was another highlight—rich curries, kebabs, and biryanis that were a treat for the taste buds. Day 5: Agra Fort and Local Bazaars The next stop was Agra Fort, another UNESCO World Heritage Site. This massive red sandstone fort was a blend of military strength and architectural beauty. Walking through its grand halls and courtyards, I could imagine the grandeur of the Mughal era. Later, I explored the local bazaars in Agra, known for marble inlay work, carpets, and leather goods. The artisanship here is incredible, and it was fascinating to watch craftsmen at work. Day 6: Return to Delhi After an early morning drive, we returned to Delhi. The tour concluded with a timely drop-off, leaving me with countless memories of this incredible journey. Cultural Highlights of the Tour This tour was more than just sightseeing—it was a deep dive into India’s culture. From the grandeur of Jaipur’s palaces to the serenity of the Taj Mahal, each destination had a unique charm. Interacting with locals, experiencing traditional music and dance, and shopping in vibrant bazaars added a rich layer of cultural immersion. Food and Hospitality The food throughout the trip was unforgettable. Each city had its own culinary specialties, and every meal was a delight. The hospitality of the people, from the hotel staff to the guides, was heartwarming. Conclusion The 6-Day Golden Triangle Tour is perfect for anyone wanting to experience India’s history, culture, and cuisine in a short time. Nikita Holidays planned everything seamlessly, and the memories of this trip will stay with me forever. If you’re considering visiting India, this tour is a must!Written November 25, 2024
- erinsF8148ZK0 contributionsAgra experience.Taj Mahal and Agra Fort plus related experience of marble inlay work and artisan embroidery with purchasing opportunity. So pleased to have visited these sites. Nothing beats seeing them in person. Was all above expectation. Our guide Raj gave a very comprehensive and knowledgeable history which added to the depth of the experience. He took some beautiful photos of us especially at the Taj Mahal as he knows all the best angles and photo shots as he has been there many times before. Find the retail experience very interesting from a historical and artisan perspective but the pressure to purchase can be overwhelming at times. Amazing Indian buffet lunch included. Definitely worth the trip from NZ to see the sights and sounds and people of India:-)Written November 23, 2024
- carolinem8000 contributionsGreat from start to finishGreat experience, KK picked us up from Delhi and looked after us all the way. Great driving and very kind. He even bought our daughters a lovely gift Rocky was our guide in Agra. Full of knowledge. And amazing photographer Great hotel in Agra. Seemless from start to finishWritten November 21, 2024
- allisons4800 contributionsGREAT TOUR!We had the most amazing time on this trip. It was fast pace because we arrived by cruise ship with only two nights in Mumbai. But so very worth the effort. Getting to the Tai Mahal at sunrise was beyond words. The colors of the sky bounding off of the Tai was beautiful. And the guide provided so much information about the history of the Taj. Don’t think twice book this one. You will not regret it.Written November 21, 2024
- caroline m0 contributionsWow got to be done. SuperbWhat a brilliant trip we had. Everything went seamlessly. We were picked up from our hotel in Goa, taken to the airport for our flight to Delhi. We were met by the Lovely KK whose driving skills were incredible. On arrival in Agra we took onboard our truly fab guide Rocky. He took us to the moon garden for sunset at the Taj Mahal. It was wonderful. Up the next morning for sunrise, Rocky knew exactly what time would be best. And they she was in all her glory. Taj Mahal. Skip the queue, then Rocky showed us how to get best pictures.breathtaking views. Just amazingWritten November 20, 2024

- 294tony0 contributionsAmazing visit to Agra and Taj Mahal and more!!!!I would highly recommend the 2 day trip. The coordination from hotel to airport and all in between wa well planned. Our Driver KK Sharma from Delhi to Agra was excellent. If you know the driving in India is an experience in itself. KK got us where we needed to go on time and safely. Our tour guide Raj was equally amazing. His knowledge was great. His English is very well spoken and an excellent photographer as well.Written November 18, 2024

Driver picked us up on time at hotel however was too busy phoning, texting and watching films while driving! Felt very unsafe. Arrived at Taj Mahal after sun had come up. Guide was good but we were to simply listen, not to join the conversation! Hard sell from marble shop, guide clearly on commission! Driver and guide sat outside we got taken into room, door closed, and hard sell took place! Hotel for breakfast didn't let you use wifi, they charged for it. Driver didn't drop us at hotel, asked us to walk the rest! Use another company, way too overpriced!

Fantastic tour, highly recommended. From the 2.30am hotel pick up to the delivery back to our hotel in Delhi in the afternoon everything was very professional. Our driver and his car were so comfortable we slept off the early start. We picked up our tour guide Rajeev at a local Agra hotel. Rajeev’s English and historical knowledge was very good. He also knew where to take all the best photos. After a complimentary breakfast we visited the equally amazing Agra Fort. Seeing the Taj Mahal and fort early morning is def the way to do these iconic monuments.
We didn’t do the shopping and lunch so I can’t comment on these but was grateful that they could tailor our tour so we could return to Delhi early.

Our driver Vishan Sharma arrived at our hotel right on time and drove us to Agra for our sunrise tour. He was very friendly and helpful. Our tour guide Vijay Sharma was very informative and gave us great service throughout the whole day. They even accommodated our shopping requests and showed us great places to buy things. Vijay was knowledgeable about the Taj Mahal and Agra fort and we would recommend their service to anyone.
