Pravin Ji was an adaptable guide which is very important to us. We don't want the million word history, which he is very capable of delivering, but instead wanted highlights to fill the gaps in our knowledge. Most guides have a hard time adjusting. He did beautifully.
-
Mr. Roki was friendly and helpful and knows the subject very well. I wish to choose him next time whenever i will visit Tajmahal. Driver Prem was wonderful and I want to recommend his name if my relatives want to know from me.

My tour guide was very knowledgeable and welcoming. I was picked up on time first thing in the morning and everything else went smoothly from there as well. The Taj Mahal is best experienced at dawn, and this was a great way to experience a world wonder.
