He is also an expert photographer and took some amazing pics

Mr Ashraf from Delight tours the tour operator met us before lunch to inquire about our experience and get feedback infact he asked us about areas he could improve-very impressive!

Mr Islaam was really awesome
Mr Islaam and both drivers deserve a good tip
I really appreciate the hard work from Mr Ashrafs team
This is a product well vetted and deserving of the Viator label
Take this trip and it will be shorter,safer and fun
The Yamuna expressway is also fast BUT getting in and out of Delhi can mean 7-8 hrs on Indian roads and a long day
We did not want to risk being driven long distance
