Awesome day trip to Taj Mahal and Agra from Mumbai - Adesh was an awesome tour guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. He was also a good photographer and professional in the way he conducted the tour.
Boby was a safe driver who arrived on time, communicated well on phone, and also very friendly.
I visited on a tight schedule from Mumbai but these two managed to make my day trip a memorable one!

Agra Day Trip - They did an awesome tour of Taj Mahal and Agra fort, explained about the history and answered all questions. Made good memories to keep forever visiting one of the world wonders. Our driver RN Sharma took us back to Delhi fast and secure.

Agra Fort and the Taj Mahal at sunrise. - Bindu was my tour guide and she was absolutely wonderful. We spent one half day exploring Agra Fort and the back of the Taj Mahal ( the Taj Mahal was not open that day). Bindu took lots of professional looking photos for me. The next day, we had a sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal. Bindu made certain that I was appropriately and respectfully dressed for this momentous occasion. Again, she took many photos of me at the Taj Mahal and I am so grateful to her. No one wants the photos of a lifetime in disarray and Bindubmade sure I was not disappointed. She is an excellent tour guide.

Excellent. I would definitely use this company again. - Hired this company for private tour with 16 people. pick up at Delhi airport to hotel. Then next day tour of Dehli, lunch and drive to Agra hotel. Then Friday siteseeing with Agra Fort, marble and rug artisans demonstration and lunch. Took us to a Sikh temple also and explained the religions and offshoots. Also to botanical gardens to see Taj Mahal at sunset. Then 5 am pickup to tour Taj Mahal, back to hotel and then to airport. The bus was nice and air conditioned. Assistant was helpful in getting luggage on and off bus and assisting passengers and passing out water frequently. The driver was good at navigating this town safely. Shyam was excellent with history and culture of all the sites. He planned the time that the group wanted to do and recommended time at Agra fort rather than Dehli fort. He bargained with all the sellers for books and souvenirs for us. Was very patient when we got tired, hot and cranky. Had us take a 2 hr break in afternoon at hotel to rest. They drove 3 people to dinner and waited and drove them back to hotel rather than get a cab. He also arranged wheelchairs and pushers for 3 people with health issues for the long tours around the sites. The hotels Meridia and Courtyard at Marriot were nice also and restaurants they chose were excellent. They also checked us in on flights and gave us boarding passes electronic and paper to get in the airport doors. Sometimes people met up at wrong spot so just clarify when and exactly where to meet if separated due to size and so many people in India. Also clarify when going to temples to have knee covers but the temples also had coverups for the ladies and men.

Magical Agra - SAM Tours and Travels provided exceptional service from start to finish for our Same Day Delhi-Agra tour. Our driver, Juyel, was calm and competent in all traffic conditions. Our very personable tour guide, Shyam, had outstanding knowledge of the historical, engineering and architectural details of the Taj and the Fort, making for a wonderfully engaging tour. We wholeheartedly recommend this tour.

Ana Ibf tour with great tour guide. - Great tour. Got picked up from Delhi by car, reliable driver Rahul and comfortable car. Shyam joined me in Agra and provided the best Taj Mahal experience. He made a tour tailored for me and answered all my question. Also, took pictures of me on top locations without any queues. Can’t find anything better in this tour.

Excellent and unforgettable experience - A very friendly driver and a super clean car were the foundation for an excellent experience. Additionally, the guide in Agra was very knowledgeable providing both a good overview but also great details to set everything in context. The whole trip was really valuable.
FYI: The full-day trip was actually from Gurugram not from New Delhi.

Incredible Guided Day Tour from Delhi to Taj Mahal and Agra Fort - What a great tour! I was a little anxious to travel alone as it was my first time in India, but my driver Sanjeev arrived right on time as scheduled at 7am at my hotel in Gurgaon. He was very friendly, the car was clean, his driving was calm. He stopped a few times for me at the better travel stops for washroom, coffee, etc. Once we arrived in Agra, we were joined by Shyam my tour guide. He explained the ticketing process at the Taj Mahal to me and made sure he stayed by my side, even got in the line and purchased the entry fee tickets on my behalf, got me a bottled water, made sure I had an umbrella with me, etc. Shyam was the best tour guide I've ever had, and I've been on quite a few private and group tours through Viator, etc. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the Taj Mahal and made sure that I understood all the sites and the history on the property as well. He took a lot of photographs of me, was even excited to do so and he has a skill in the photographer area! We also traveled to Agra Fort which was just as incredible, and again he knew the lay of the land and was able to guide me through the maze of rooms and areas with a history lesson all along the way. I can't say enough about Shyam's friendliness, deep knowledge of India history, and passion for these landmarks. Needless to say, seeing the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort would be incredible even if on my own, but I would not have understood what I was witnessing like I was able to with Shyam at my side! He also took me to a few upscale shops to see the marble/gemstone pieces being made and to see local art, where I was able to confidently purchase a hand cut emerald and a few other gifts for my wife and home. The drive home was also peaceful. We didn't stop for lunch but was offered and had snacks along the way, I was glad we used the extra time to visit a few shops instead of a sit down lunch. Again, best experience I could possibly ask for in a tour!
