A bit pricey for what we actually got. Included the obligatory visit to shops which we did not like. Lunch was awful. Tour guide was good though.

Did the tour allow us to visit Agra as planned? Yes. Was this an amazing tour with regards to value and quality. No way.
Christopher H 04-Mar-2018

So many shops the guide took us to that we were rushed at the Agra Fort. you need to say no to your guide for shops if you don't want to go to many.

Great Trip, excellent guide, would definitely recommend this trip.
Train journey was a great experience, The Taj Mahal was amazing and we also visited the Agra Fort.
The only disappointing part was the buffet lunch, I personally would rather have paid extra and had a proper lunch.

Disappointing but convenient way to see Taj Mahal and Red Fort from Jaipur. All arrangements work but collection was too esrly for train. Tour company in Agra -Nikita did not know my hotel was only 10 minutes from station so unnecessarily early start to a very long day this could have been easily ...
