About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Explore255047967220 contributionsOur 2 days visiting Taj Mahal Sunrise, Baby Taj, Agra Red Fort and Ranthambhore Tiger SafariFor some context, we are 2 friends 20 & 21 y/old female backpackers who are spending 4 days in India and wanted to make the most of it. It is definitely the way to do it and we were so happy with how seamless it all went. We arrived in Delhi late evening and our driver Neeraj promptly picked us up at 2am. We settled in but we were not expecting the crazy driving in India! Luckily we felt completely safe with our driver and found we could sleep a little. We arrived at the Taj Mahal around 6am and this is when we met Subhash our guide. He spent the morning with us telling us information about Taj Mahal, Baby Taj, Red Fort and answered any questions we had about his culture and food. Subhash showed us what a traditional southern Indian breakfast is and we shared a meal together. We also saw a carpet making and embroidery display with Subhash. After this, we started on our 5 hour journey to Ranthamsbhore - and gosh was there a lot of traffic. We were glad we had not stopped for lunch before leaving Agra. Once we arrived at Ranthamsbhore, we had already had a jammed packed day (2am-8pm). We got some dinner at the restaurant on site and had a look at the stars before heading to sleep. The second day started at 5:30am when we met our driver to take us to the centre of Ranthambhore to meet our safari guide. We headed to the park and entered just after sunrise (7am). Our safari went down Route 4/5 and we were advised it is not a guarantee to see the tigers. We luckily got the chance to see not one, but 2 in the area along with other animals including, monkeys, peacocks, antelope and deer. After the safari ended at 10:30am we headed back to the resort for a complimentary breakfast and met our driver at 11:30am to begin the 6 hour drive back to Delhi. We really enjoyed this tour and all the information about culture, food, style and nature India has to offer. We found Subhash super informative, interesting, polite and happy to help! We feel the tour was well worth the money and information was passed on smoothly to us - our driver didn’t speak any English which made that a little more difficult but the tour company helped us to know everything we needed.Written November 4, 2024
- Sherpa123087637870 contributionsGreat tourSubhash was a great tour guide for Agra and Sunil was a prompt and great driver. Seeing the Taj Mahal at sunrise was amazing. Thank you for showing me around!Written November 1, 2024
- KatieC198550 contributionsGreat company, driver and hotel !This company has been amazing! They kept in touch 24/7 with every bit of info and made sure I was ok throughout . I loved the hotel , fantastic location and great food, the staff were amazing! Through no fault of their own, I couldn’t do the safari due to bad weather ( the risk you take when you book in monsoon season) but being surrounded by nature and walking around the area was a nice way to make up for it . Especially after only being in city’s for so long. My driver , Shyam Pandey is amazing! I feel like I’ve made a friend with him. Fantastic driver and just a genuine lovely guy . Overall , 10/10 experience ☺️Written September 14, 2024

- BronwynSelina0 contributionsSafe, educational and UNFORGETTABLE!Well organised, great tour! I booked through Padma Holidays and the tour guide Subhash was exceptional. He had deep knowledge of Agra, the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. The tour was paced as I wanted, had the opportunity for a photographer to take great photos at Taj Mahal but don’t feel pressured to take more than what you want. Travelling solo, Subhash, really took care of me and made me feel safe and comfortable. The driver Devendra was also great company, the car was clean and comfortable with snacks and water supplied for the long drive there and back. Thank you for an unforgettable day!Written February 22, 2024
- Resort252094607910 contributionsGreat experience to visit AgraI traveled alone and had felt a little bit nervous. But The driver Sanju Picked me up on time with cleaned car, is very kind and friendly. Also he kindly talked to me while driving. I started enjoying the tour. At the parking area on the highway, he got me some chips and tea. After arrived Agra, I met the guide Mr. Subhash, he was also nice, leaded me very well. I asked them to make the tour shorter because of the flight, then they made the tour and everything on time.Written February 19, 2024
- M5964NWkathryns0 contributionsHighly Recommend!This was an amazing day. We had an wonderful driver (Sanju) who picked us up promptly at the hotel and got us safely to all our locations throughout the day. His car was clean, fully air conditioned, and filled with lots of snacks and bottled water. Subash was our tour guide- he was great, patiently took pictures of us, and escorted us around Agra to see local artisans at work. Highly recommend this tour to everyone especially if you're lucky enough to get Sanju and Subash. The elephant sanctuary was an incredible experience and wonderful way to end our tour.Written February 8, 2024
- NorthStar7667380 contributionsIncredible India!We took the Golden Triangle Tour which was 4 days, 3 nights from Jan 27- Feb 2, 2024. We used Taj Trip India. We were a group of 11, which included 9 in the family and 2 friends. Our guide, Danish, was very informative and knowledgeable and got along with our group. He was very patient, and tried to accommodate our group’s special requests. Our driver, Dharaj, was very patient and maneuvered the narrow streets with ease. Our tour even included a tour of Delhi, which included a visit to the spice market in Old Delhi in rickshaws. The itinerary for the whole tour was very well planned, and informative. I would highly recommend using the Taj Trip India company, and the guide, Danish, and driver, Dharaj!! I would give them 5 stars!!Written January 31, 2024

The tour of the Taj was a fantastic addition to our wedding trip. It added the cultural elements we needed to make the trip feel complete. Our driver Dinesh and guide Subhash, took care of our group as friends would. We had some specific items we needed ahead of the wedding and they came though with excellent local recommendations.

Our tour guide Vijay Shovima was so knowledgeable about the history of the Taj. He also made the whole tour interactive with little tricks on where to stand to view the symatery of the Taj. All the permanent staff knew him there and were willing to perform extra services so he is obviously well liked. Ask for Vijay he will make your tour extra special. His English is perfect and is such easy company. He will also help you avoid any hassel from the peddlers etc.

We spent a great day in Agra with Mr. Kumar. He was very professional and provided us with insights about Taj Mahal and Agra fort. We visited a few local workshops too, which was very educational, regarding the way how Taj Mahal was build and why it took so long. I can recommend everyone to take this tour and have a great time in Agra.
