Abdul was brilliant - Abdul Kadir was fantastic. He took the time to give clear and interesting knowledge, guided us around in a meaningful way - letting us take the photos we wanted but also going through the Taj and its grounds in a nice way that avoided being in the crowds all the time. He also had lots of fun tips for photos and photo spots which nobody else knew to do. After a sunrise entrance at the Taj he recommended a brilliant and cheap place for breakfast before we went on. Through the whole day he gave us so much patience, letting us join in with the masses and wait our turn with photos, being there with us whilst we spent ages negotiating prices and waiting longer than planned with us to eat breakfast after the Taj. In addition to the Taj and the Fort he took us to two fascinating and genuine craft homes - one of marble and precious stones, such as that used at the Taj itself, and the other of a unique form of embroidery using the same stones featured in the Taj. We had a great day and Abdul was a key part of that. Thank you! James

Great guide!! - The guide knew a lot about the resort and knew all the good spots to take photos. The guide made it easy to get into the resort and he also kept away all the people who wanted to sell you something.

Top Notch Taj Tour with Pankaj - Pankaj was a stellar guide who expertly helped us navigate the Taj Mahel and explained everything to us in perfect detail. We would have been lost without him but he helped us have a secure and seamless experience. From the moment we entered the Taj Pankaj explained everything around us. From the 22 points, marking the amount of years it took to complete to the layout of the gardens marking the year it was completed. I was amazed to learn there was almost a second Taj built across the river, wow! I couldn’t recommend Pankaj enough! We even got to joke around in a little Spanish! Gracias, Pankaj. Hasta pronto.

Great guide experience with Pankaj - Our guide Pankaj made our Agra visit very seamless. He met us at our hotel, and was with us every step of the way for our Taj viewing - helping us with the lines, transportation, tickets, etc. He was full of interesting details on the history of the Taj, and was very easy to talk to. He gave just the right amount of detail and had an ideal pace. I highly recommend hiring a guide for the chaos of Agra (even if you are Indian) as it makes the entire experience more manageable. If we ever come back to Agra we will definitely look for Pankaj to complete the 2nd part of our tour (the Fort) which we weren’t able to see due to time.

Good job, Mr Abdul. Thank you. - The weather was almost perfect, a little cloudy. The guide, Mr Abdul, was very considerate and knew a lot of the history of Taj Mahal. He also took us to see the marble inlay work. He showed us good places to get our coffee and lunch. He definitely made the visit most informative and enjoyable.
