Trip of Lifetime - We were very happy with this tour and the guides and drivers. They were on time and very knowledgeable. We got to see everything we wanted to see. It was well planned to see everything wanted. The hotel was 5 Stars plus as was the tour’s, guides and drivers. It was an excellent price. The communication from tour was outstanding. We always knew what was happening. We also had someone with us or meeting us so we felt very comfortable. We saw the TajMahal at sunup. It was awesome! We really got to see more beautiful temples/mosques and parts India in the 3 days tour. It was a trip of the lifetime made perfect by a great team.

Great visit to the Taj Mahal - We took this excursion after a 9 night cruise to India. Our cruise ended in Mumbi and wanted to visit the Taj Mahal after the cruise. I was a little nervous about trying to book this excursion by myself. I usually go though the cruise ship because it can be easier then booking on my own. But to my surprise, booking this 2 night Private Taj Mahal and Agra tour from the Mumbi cruise port was the best thing I could have done. As soon as our ship docked in Mumbi, we left the ship and our ride to the air port was waiting for us outside the terminal, He had a sign with our name on it to locate him. The transfer to the air port was very quick and safe. He explained where to go in the air port to catch our flight to New Delhi. This company planned everything from transfer, to airline tickets ,to hotels in Agra and a tour guide. Everything went well. Once our flight landed in New Delhi, we had a driver waiting for us outside the terminal. The driver was excellent. He gave us a flower lei and plenty of water to drink. The drive is around 3 to 4 hour drive from the air port in New Delhi and our hotel in Agra. Driving India can be a little scary, but we always felt safe with him driving us. The hotel was magnificent. It was less then two miles to the Taj Mahal. The next day we met our tour guide at the hotel. We continued to a sunrise at the Taj Mahal with the driver and guide. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area we were visiting. He walked us around the Taj Mahal and made the building come alive. He talked about the history of the building and how it was built. He also knows all the best places to take pictures of the area. After the Taj Mahal, we went to the Agra fort. Our driver always dropped us off near the buildings and picked us up very close to. The Agra fort is a fort and a palace combined. As we walk around, our tour guide explained the love story and the horrible way the son imprisoned his father to gain power. Our guide also recommended an excellent restaurant for lunch. To ended the day, our guide took us across the river from the Taj Mahal to see it at sunset. I was the perfect way to end the day. Our guide was excellent the whole day. And his English was perfect. He has been a guide for over 19 years. The next day, we met our driver at the hotel to drive back to the airport. An extra bonus, since our flight was in the evening, our driver took us around New Delhi to see some of the attraction of the city. He also stopped at a nice restaurant before the air port so we could have one last nice India dinner. This was one of the best tours that we have ever taken. They took care of tiniest details of our tour. I would highly recommend this company for any tour in INDIA.

Amazing Tour of Agra and Taj Mahal - This is our first trip to India and we are so glad that we chose this trip package over others offered from the cruise ship. From the moment being picked up at Kochi cruise port we have been treated with such kindness and excellent service. We were assisted with where to go in airport and once we arrived off our flight to New Delhi, our driver D.K. greeted us warmly and the vehicle was comfortable and clean and very professional. We appreciated the extra comforts with bottled waters and snacks and a stop for lunch on our drive into Agra. The hotel was wonderful and has great restaurants with a couple of choices depending on what types of food you would want (i.e. Indian, Chinese, American/English breakfast buffet). Also the spa services at the hotel were perfect after a long day of travel. The next morning our tour guide Mahesh gave us an incredible tour of the Taj Mahal and Fort Agra. He gave detailed and interesting historical information and also took amazing photographs of us and knew the best spots for capturing unique photos and to see each of the places in ways we wouldn’t have thought or known of without an expert guide. We also enjoyed the stop at Kalakriti where we learned about the marble inlay art and the intricacies into making these beautiful pieces. There was also a stop at Zardouzee, a place that had hand embroidery pieces and jewelry with a vast variety to view. Overall this has been an amazing journey for us and we highly recommend this travel company for a great experience to see the Taj Mahal/Agra and a glimpse of India within a short trip excursion.

Independent tour of India - When arriving to India, I really wanted to see the Taj Mahal, one of the eight Wonders of the World. Not knowing how to get there and where to go, I booked this trip in order to fulfill my dream. It’s the prefect tour to take as a solo traveler. My tour guide, Mahesh, helped me a lot by showing me the sights of Taj Mahal, explaining the intriguing history of it, and the fascinating architecture that makes it one of the eight Wonders of the World. My driver, Vipin Sharma, took me where I needed to go and was very patient with me. I couldn’t ask for a better experience.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience - Makesh was our tour guide for this and is someone who not only cared for us during the trip, but he went above and beyond. Our driver was attentive and maneuvered through the busy streets with ease. We weren’t sure what to expect for our first trip to India and these two gentlemen took away any concerns we had. Highly recommended tour!

Taj Mahal from ship port - We are on a World Cruise and had made arrangements with Pacific Classic Tours to leave our ship for a private tour of the Taj Mahal. Our itinerary was changed at the last minute, but PCT was able to make our visit with the new ports. We left from Colombo and returned to Cochin on the 3rd day. Our driver, DK Sharma, picked us up at the airport and spent the entire trip getting us to all locations effortlessly, with great kindness and assistance. Made the trip, even though timing was short, seem very enjoyable. Our Guide, Mahesh, was very knowledgeable and made the building come to life for us. He was able to answer all questions, get us to all the special spots for view, and organized the day for maximum enjoyment. Totally a 5 star trip!

Taj Mahal trip from our World Cruise - We booked the tour from our cruise ship which did not plan an expedition to the Taj. We were excited to find a tour that could take us to the Taj Mahal from our ship and return us the next port to rejoin our ship after our tour. We flew from Cochin to Delhi where we were picked up from our driver, Bittu, who took care of us for the next two days. We stayed in Agra at the beautiful Jaypee 5 star resort in Agra near the Taj. Our guide Maheesh met us there the next morning and took us on tours of the Taj, the Castle and Fort as well as the "Baby" Taj Mahal. Maheesh was incredibly knowledgeable of the history of all the sites we visited and the culture of the area. We also did some local tours and shopping while in Agra. The final day, we were driven back to Delhi for our flight to rejoin the ship. I cannot begin to tell you how easy it all was. All of our needs were anticipated and our itinerary was well planned and seamlessly executed. I would recommend PCTI, our guide service, to anyone who is traveling in India and wants to experience it and learn about the history and culture, especially first time visitors.

I was expecting the Taj... - I was expecting the Taj to be majestic (which it was) but the for surprised me on how wonderful it was. Normally we see forts in ruins and the fact that it is so in tact and has such a rich history was a very pleasant surprise. The entire trip though was fantastic and I truly recommend this trip.
