Best tour guide in Agra, 10/10 experience - Sunil gave me the best private walking tours of Agra, took it in the evening around sunset. Great opportunity to explore after you arrive and check in to your hotel. Had food tasting and saw many monkeys. He is passionate about teaching the local culture and will immerse you with an authentic experience. I even booked him the next day to show me around other parts including Baby Taj and the local park across the river from the Taj (secluded and great view for photos) Highly recommend, 10/10 and truly a cherished memory! One of the best guides in India during my 10 days between Agra and Mumbai.

A must tour - We felt that we got a true life experience on this tour of what life in India really is like. The hustle and bustle of the area was an experience in itself. Our guide did a great job of explaining the food, shops and people of Old Agra.

Great tour of the old part of Agra! - We had a great tour with Sunil. He knew exactly where we needed to be to experience some real Indian culture. He treated us to sweets, chai tea and other goodies. He paid very close attention to our safety and told many interesting things. Definitely recommended if you want to see more of Agra than just the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort.

Old city, indian culture and amazing street food! - Our guide was precise and attentive. He let us choose what to focus on during the tour and was able to inform us on the city and its cultural features. Also our tour has been a lot about traditional food and street food. We always try out new dishes but with this tour it was all at a new level! The old city is defenetly worth a visit and with this tour we were able to really dive deep into the experience.

Stress free sightseeing star Sunil - Sunil’s walking tour took me to all the famous markets, mosques and temples in Agra old city. He didn’t pressure me into trying street food stalls or take me into any shops - he just used his experience and knowledge to give a great introduction to India. Sunil gave rest breaks and used different modes of transport - from tuk tuk to bicycle taxi to give an authentic true taste of India. Thank you again Sunil, highly recommended!
