You will not find a better guide!! - Absolutely amazing day trip from Mumbai to Agra! I had the joy of Omkar driving me around in a smooth and efficient manner, he also provided water and an assortment of small confectioneries. Then there’s Raj! This guy knows his stuff, he gives extremely in depth and accurate information pertaining to the beautiful and historic sites such as the Taj Mahal and Fort! I can not recommend these guys enough!!

Taj Mahal Day Trip from Mumbai - It was a one-woman trip, but thanks to our driver and guide, we were able to visit the Taj Mahal, which we had hoped for. Guide's
Sanjeev Jaijv is fluent in Japanese and knowledgeable and kind. Driver Omkar Singh was also kind and had excellent driving skills. Raheem , who was in charge of the round trip between the Mumbai hotel and the airport, was kind enough to wait for me when my flight home was delayed. We left the hotel at 4:00 in the morning and returned at 0:30 in the middle of the night, which was a long journey, but we were able to use the short itinerary effectively. I had to get a ticket for a domestic flight in India at the last minute, and it was inconvenient that I couldn't check in online from my Japanese phone, so I had to get an authorization number on the phone of a friend in India. If it wasn’t for this tour, I don’t think we would have made the day trip alone.

Good driver - KK was very nice, and went out of his way to make sure that I had everything I needed to keep me happy and comfortable during my time in New Delhi/Agra.
He gave me my first taste of Indian Chai tea, as well as recommended and drove me to an excellent restaurant while I was waiting for my flight to depart.

Great tour in Agra - Great tour! It was well planned and all went smoothly. The driver Sonu was already waiting for me at the airport and safely drove me to Agra and also around the city. The guide Rajni Kant was very knowledgeable and kind. He showed me around Agra Fort, Taj Mahal and some handcraft for textiles, carpet and marble. Overall great experience!

KK was awesome! - Our driver KK was the absolute best!! He greeted us at the airport with flower garlands which was so sweet. His driving was perfect, got us to where we needed to go and safely as well. He also stopped along the way and bought us snacks, masala chai, and special sweets you can only get in Agra! We will always remember KK and our time going to Agra to see the Taj Mahal. Thank you so much KK!

Amazing full day in Agra - Raj was a wonderful guide. He made sure we knew all the history and culture of Agra. The Taj Mahal and the Agra Fort are both amazing! Our driver was Sonu. He was fast and safe. Always ready with the cold water bottles to keep us hydrated in the 90° heat. Over all I would highly recommend this trip and specifically theses guides.

Great Option for Seeing Agra, Especially if Booking Abroad… but Manage Expectations - Pros:
- Puneet went above and beyond customizing our trip as we had a tight schedule. Safe to say we would not have been able to see the Taj Mahal without him.
- Mr. KK (pictured) is perhaps the best driver in all of India. He was kind, funny, and punctual. We were able to experience so much more than we would otherwise been able to thanks to Mr. KK. He made sure the drive between Delhi and Agra was more than just a drive, it was a cultural experience.
- Our guide Rocky made visiting the Taj Mahal flawless and it was very clear he has years of experience!
Cons
- We went for the 5 Star hotel upgrade and were put up in the Raddison. While it is a 5 star hotel online the experience was sadly not 5 stars. The buffet was great though.
- Be clear about if where you are being taken is a cultural experience or a shop. Shopping is great and we got some amazing items but were initially expecting something different…
- More engagement on the tour or information about Agra or the Taj Mahal would’ve really enhanced the tour

Viator Ruined Our Trip, and ... did NOTHING to correct their mistake! Disappointing ... - Unfortunately, our excursion to the Taj Mahal was ruined thanks to Viator's disorganization within their company. Let me explain.
Excited to see that Viator had a one-day excursion to the Taj Mahal as it would have worked perfectly within our schedule. We scheduled our tour and a few days later we found out our flight changed and had to change the day of our tour which was not a problem. I received the new confirmation, and we were all set, at least we thought we were all set.
The problem came in when Viator DID NOT communicate the date change to the local tour operator. So, waiting in the Hotel lobby at 3:30 am for a 4:00 am pickup on the revised scheduled date. The clock is ticking and at 4:30 am I called local tour operator only to find out he had us scheduled for the next day which was our original date. He blamed Viator for not giving him the changed date and took no responsibility for the screw up.
Being in India the "Tage" is a must see so we discussed with the local operator how we could make this happen. The next day we were in the Hotel lobby in Mumbai at 1:30 pm and we were picked up for our 4:15 am flight to Delhi. We met our driver and drove almost four hours to Agar arriving at 11:30 am. to finally see the Tag Mahal. One- and one-half hours later we were back in the car for another four-hour drive back to the airport for our flight to returning to Mumbai and our hotel. Arriving back at our hotel its now 11:00 pm at night. Only time for a quick shower and back in the lobby at 1:30 am for our 4:00 am flight home.
The bottom line here is we missed out on our time at the Tag Mahal not to say the inconveniences we incurred, the stress of four flights within 48 hours including 24 hours on the plane to get home. When I reported this to Viator the sad fact is they absolutely didn't care and did nothing to apse us because of THEIR MISTAKE.
