          Amazing 15-Day Trip, Outstanding Guides and A Positive Resolution
          Janu Private Tours provided an excellent foundation for our family's 15-day journey through Delhi, Agra, and Rajasthan. From the start, owner Janu impressed us with his exceptional friendliness and deep knowledge of the region. He was incredibly flexible in accommodating our needs and even treated us to a wonderful meal at his restaurant to celebrate my mom's birthday – a truly kind gesture! The guides were equally outstanding, offering a perfect blend of historical knowledge, local insights, and friendly conversation. They were punctual and went the extra mile to accommodate our special needs. They truly elevated our sightseeing experience. (Highly recommend: Mehraj in Agra, Surya in Jaipur, and Surya in Jodhpur). Unfortunately, our driver, Vijay Singh, proved to be a major drawback. New to the company, he seemed more focused on maximizing his commission, often at our expense. He constantly pushed commission-driven shops and restaurants, resorting to outright lies about our preferred choices. He'd falsely label highly-rated, famous restaurants we'd selected as "unhygienic" or "off-route" and was keen on taking us to places that offered him a commission. He even deceived us by driving to a different shop than requested, only revealing his deception upon arrival, and pressuring us to give it a try for his benefit. To be clear, we understand that commission-based recommendations are common practice, and we don't fault the driver or guides for participating in this system. However, the aggressive and manipulative tactics employed by our driver were unacceptable, especially given our limited time to experience the best of what India has to offer, not just what benefits him financially. Throughout the trip, we had to be constantly vigilant against being misled by the very person who was supposed to be ensuring our comfort and enjoyment. UPDATE: Janu Private Tours listened to our concerns and they took swift and decisive action to address the situation. They have since blocked Vijay Singh from any future collaboration with the company and communicated this to the taxi association to prevent similar incidents. They have also implemented stricter guidelines for drivers and reinforced the importance of prioritizing customer experience over personal gain. They even offered a partial refund for the inconvenience, which we declined as our primary concern was ensuring a better experience for future travelers. Janu and Aqueel's prompt response to our feedback has reassured us that this will not be repeated. Considering the efforts of the entire team and all the positive aspects (planning, friendliness, hospitality, punctuality, knowledge, comfort, safety etc), I am upgrading this to a 5-star review! Based on our overall experience and the company's proactive efforts to rectify the situation, we wholeheartedly highly recommend Janu Private Tours. Their guides are exceptional, communication is seamless, and the overall service is well-organized. We are confident that they will continue to provide outstanding experiences for travelers exploring India.

          Life Changing Memories !!
          Our family had an amazing trip visiting through agra, jaipur and delhi. Our driver zahir and tour guide mehraj made the trip memorable with being attentive and engaged throughout making us all laugh and eventually feel like family at the end of the trip. I cannot emphasize how much more special they made this trip than what I could have imagined. We will all be back to explore more of India with Janu tours !!!

          A great UP and MP travel experience.
          We had a great experience being hosted by Janu and more particularly our driver (Jaheer) and guide (Mehraj). We visited Agra, Chambal, Gwalior and Orchha. Nothing was too much trouble for either Jaheer or Mehraj and both went to great lengths to ensure my family and I - and particularly our children - were happy and had the best possible experience. Thank you.

          Gold stars for the golden triangle
          Our trip was flawlessly organized from start to finish, leaving no room for concern. Our driver, Jaheer, was exceptionally thoughtful and consistently went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Whenever someone in our group started coughing, he would stop to get cough drops without hesitation. He advised us on areas to be cautious and only took us to reputable shops, greatly enhancing our experience as non-locals. Even after a full day of driving, Jaheer’s cheerful energy never wavered, making our journeys lively and enjoyable. In each city, we were accompanied by different guides who brought the region's history to life with engaging storytelling. They seamlessly handled ticket purchases, bypassed long lines, and ensured we were treated fairly when shopping. Thanks to their expertise and attentiveness, we felt well cared for throughout the trip. This was truly a delightful and unforgettable experience. I can’t wait to return and will undoubtedly choose Janu Private Tours again!

          Beyond 5 Stars!
          Our family had an amazing visit to Agra, Jaipur and Delhi with Janu Tours. From planning to execution every detail was 5 stars! Our driver Zahir was on time, professional, extremely engaged and met each of our requests. I can’t thank the team enough! It was bitter-sweet to say goodbye, he even checked up on us to ensure we had a safe journey back home! We will be back to explore more of India and will do it with Janu Tours!

          Janu tour review - Golden Triangle
          I truly enjoyed my Golden Triangle tour that was put together by Janu and his team. Our driver Zaheer picked up us at Delhi Airport and drove us to Agra to see the early morning tour of the Taj Mahal. We had our tour guide Mehraj (arranged by Janu) to explain in detail all the specifics to the Taj Mahal. Mehraj spent the whole day with us and explained to us the history of Taj Mahal; Agra; Yamna River; etc. Zaheer then drove us to Jaipur. Our tour guide in Jaipur was Surya. Surya was very knowledgeable about the history of Jaipur and was very informative. My highlight of my time in Jaipur was going to the elephant preserve. At the elephant preserve we got to feed and spend time with the elephants with different activities. Zaheer then drove us back to Delhi. Jogi was our tour guide for our Delhi tour. He was a wealth of knowledge and information regarding Delhi. Chandni Chowk was the highlight of our tour there. He spent the majority of the day with us to show the highlights of Delhi. The next day we had Lala be our helper to find for my wife the shopping stores for the things she was looking to buy. He even managed to find a gentleman do mehendi (henna) for my wife and my daughter. Five stars to Janu and his team for this tour. It was very memorable and everyone went the extra mile to make it MEMORABLE and ENJOYABLE.

          Private tour for 3 girlfriends :)
          We ( 3 Italian girls ) booked a private tour with them and everything was perfect! The communication while booking was smooth and fast. During the tour we always felt safe. When the tour finished we continued by ourselves, at one point we had an issue with some train tickets, I called them and they have been extremely helpful, even their job with us was already done. Really appreciated that. Definitely recommend!

          Amazing Rajasthan road trip
          I went in a 15days trip through Rajasthan with my family and it was amazing !! We went to Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur and Ranthambore. We saw so many beautiful landscapes, forts and cities, had the best food, met really nice people … We especially had the best driver we could have wished for! Thank you Pradeep for your excellent driving skills, your good explanations about your region and its local culture, your good energy and everything you shared with us ! It would have been really different without you. If you want to experience an unforgettable trip to Rajasthan, you can trust Janu with closed eyes (don’t forget to open them because it’s worst it!)

          What other tour companies should aspire too. FANTASTIC.
          My wife and i hadnt pre-booked any tours before we arrived in Jaipur, but upon our arrival, we realised we could be missing out on valuable local knowledge. Janu personally advised us after he, and our guide Mr Singh, listened to what our personal preferences where, and there was no hard sell or pressure to follow any of there options, which makes a change in India. And doing the tours in a Tuk Tuk, as suggested, was a fun and far more entertaining way to travel around the city. The 2 local tours we did where fabulous, exactly what we wanted to see, with lots of smiles and laughter, definitely enhanced by our guide Mr Singh, and his suggestions of when and what order to visit specific sites was perfect. I can not praise this tour company highly enough, they where always professional and courteous but never forgot that our trip was to be an enjoyable and pleasurable experience. The guide in Jodphur that Janu organised, Suresh, was also fabulous, maintaining the high standards set by the Jaipur Team, who understand perfectly how a tour company should interact and involve there clients. When we return, in the near future, we shall be using Janu Tours, for all our excursions and tour requirements. FABULOUS EXPERIENCE.

          Excellent - all credit goes to Noordeen and Mehraj
          We had a great trip! The company was great in terms of keeping in touch with us prior to the trip date - the night before, they sent across the details of the driver and tour guide and confirmed pick up time. Our driver Noordeen was absolutely excellent. He picked us up at the hotel promptly at 6 and treated us to a masala chai on the way to Agra. He is such a kind and lovely man, and made us feel very welcome and safe driving down the crazy roads of India. Our tour guide Mehraj was also incredible - he is very knowledgeable and an excellent story teller! He also happened to be an excellent photographer, so we ended up with some fantastic pictures at the Taj and Fatehpur. A huge thanks to both Noordeen and Mehraj for making this trip so memorable and enjoyable. Couldn't have asked for a better dynamic duo!

          Must do experience
          An incredible experience from start to finish. The booking process is easy and they cater to your specific interests. Jeethu, our driver/guide was not just interesting and knowledgeable but he became a friend. Janu, the owner, made us a wonderful dinner one evening. Truly an experience that cannot be missed.

        We were lucky enough to be staying at the Marigold Inn Homestay which is owned by Janu from Janu Tours. We hadn’t booked any tours prior to Jaipur in the hope that we would “wing” it. I am glad that we met Janu and his team because Jaipur is not really the city you just “wing” it! We took a day tour with Janu tours and got to see the main tourist highlights along with some pretty cool places not on the tourist route. Janu was an amazing host and a credit to his city and country. He is so knowledgeable, kind and passionate about everything he does. If you are in Jaipur then this should be the only tour company you use. If you are looking for accommodation then I highly recommend his hotel which is like a boutique B&B to us Brits. Jaipur was the highlight of our India tour and that is all because of the Marigold Inn Homestay, Janu Tours and Janu himself.

        We also had the pick-up from Janu airport organized - the driver received and as desired with chilled Diet Coke’s, water and cigarettes. On the way then briefly stopped at a liquor store to get some cool beer 😍
        We stayed at Janu’s cozy Marigold Inn Homestay and made a little sightseeing tour to the Royal Gaitor the same day. You can put together the tours individually and suitable restaurants are also taken care of. You can also eat great on Janu's rooftop terrace - the mini schnitzels are awesome and the typical Indian food is prepared exactly to the spiciness you like! We were there with my parents (70) and their friends (80) and they were totally fascinated! Today the driver will take us to Agra to the Taj Mahal - from there we will fly on.

        Can only recommend it to anyone to book a tour with Janu! For us, it was the 5th. Mal (but we live in South India at the moment) and go with all friends and family only to him!

        He has a German speaking guide for both his tours in Jaipur and the Taj Mahal!

        *Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.
