Just the right amount of information - Pravin Ji was an adaptable guide which is very important to us. We don't want the million word history, which he is very capable of delivering, but instead wanted highlights to fill the gaps in our knowledge. Most guides have a hard time adjusting. He did beautifully.

Knowledgeable guide, great experience - My tour guide was very knowledgeable and welcoming. I was picked up on time first thing in the morning and everything else went smoothly from there as well. The Taj Mahal is best experienced at dawn, and this was a great way to experience a world wonder.
