- Taj Mahal - The Taj Mahal, meaning “Crown of the Palaces,” is an ivory-white marble mausoleum located on the southern bank of the Yamuna River in Agra, India. Commissioned in 1632 by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan (who reigned from 1628 to 1658), it was built to enshrine the tomb of his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
The mausoleum’s construction was largely finished by 1643, although work on other parts of the project continued for an additional decade. In 1983, the Taj Mahal was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for being “the jewel of Muslim art in India.”
- Agra Fort - Agra Fort is a historic fortification in Agra, India. It served as the primary residence for the emperors of the Mughal Dynasty until 1638, when the capital was moved from Agra to Delhi. In 1983, Agra Fort was also designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The fort is more accurately described as a walled city.
Agra Fort is unique in India as it is the only fort where all early Mughal emperors resided. It is situated on an ancient site traditionally known as Badalgarh.

Excellent driver and guide, great value and great experience - Excellent driver (ajit) and tour guide (sumit). Ajit went above and beyond and provided interesting information about life in delhi and helpful suggestions. Sumit was knowledgeable and took dozens of pictures, answered questions, and we skipped all the lines. Great experience and value, would book again.

A Day to Remember!! - Vikram gave us an unforgettable day! He was personable, very knowledgeable and passionate about India and its rich history. We toured the Agra Fort and Taj Mahal, had a fabulous lunch and did some local shopping in places we never would have found ourselves. You will not go wrong booking Vikram to be your guide while in India. Thank you, Vikram, for a wonderful day!

Best Service - I had an absolutely wonderful experience traveling solo with Driver India Private Tours. From the very beginning, the professionalism and care of the team stood out, making my journey through India both seamless and memorable. As a solo female traveler, safety was my top priority, and this company truly went above and beyond to ensure I felt secure and well taken care of at every step.
A special mention goes to my driver, Sushil, who was exceptional throughout the trip. He was not only highly professional and punctual but also incredibly courteous and fluent in English, which made communication effortless. His knowledge of the local culture and history added an enriching layer to my travels, as he shared fascinating insights and recommendations along the way.
The local guides provided by the company were equally impressive—friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive to all my needs. Each destination came alive through their stories and expertise, making the journey even more special.
Driver India Private Tours paid attention to every detail, from organizing the itinerary to ensuring my comfort and safety at all times. This level of care allowed me to focus on enjoying my trip and soaking in the beauty of India. I cannot recommend them enough, especially for solo female travelers looking for a safe, enriching, and unforgettable travel experience. Thank you, Sushil, and the entire team for making my trip truly extraordinary!

The golden DUO - Hukam and satinder Jain were amazing! Hukam drove me so well and made sure I was comfortable with water, tea and bathroom stops and was extremely safe with all the traffic and ongoing road works. Satinder was very knowledgeable and great with explaining the history and culture at Taj Mahal and Agra fort. He encouraged conversations and questions and made me feel very comfortable. Lunch was delicious! Had the best experience with them. 10-/10

Simply Breathtaking - Wow! I don’t often start a review with that, but seriously, our trip surpassed all our expectations.
It all started with excellent communication the day before our tour. We were provided with the details of our driver along with his vehicle details and confirmed our 0300 collection.
My wife, 10 year old daughter and I were collected from our hotel in Delhi early (which we secretly would hope would happen!!) and we began our journey. Mahendra was an excellent driver, explaining things as he drove. We stopped for a masala tea on the way down which was delicious!
We arrived at the entrance of the Taj Mahal around 0615 and met our guide, Subham. He was so welcoming and knowledgable, walking us through the rich history of the Taj Mahal, answering my many questions with enthusiasm. He was the best tour guide we have had. He also takes THE most amazing photos on iPhone! If you have the option, please ask for Subham, you won’t regret it!
We then had some delicious breakfast at a local hotel. It was very clean and would not hesitate to return there. From there we went onto a place to learn about the marble creations. This was super interesting and whilst there is the obligatory shop, there was no hard sell and I didn’t feel at all pressured into purchasing anything.
We then went to Agra Fort. I wasn’t prepared for it to be as impressive or as interesting as we found it. Do not be tempted to skip this. The history was fascinating and the buildings are impressive.
We ended the tour with a souvenir shop stop at our request for little gifts. Again, no hard sells at all. We were offered to continue spending time with Subham, going for lunch etc, but we were super tired so opted to head back to Delhi.
Would 100% recommend booking this tour, you won’t be disappointed! Thank you guys!

Lovely, Must Do Experience - This was a wonderful experience. My friend and I were promptly picked up at 3 AM at our hotel in New Delhi and driven to Agra to visit the Taj Mahal. Once we got to the Taj Mahal we were greeted by our guide, Vikram, who ushered us through the entry process and thoroughly explained each step. Vikram was extremely kind and knowledgeable, we had a great day with him telling us the history of the sites and answering all our questions. We had a lovely lunch and he even adjust the itinerary to suit our needs. Once our time was done with Agra, our driver took us back to our hotel in New Delhi. We both felt safe the entire time and got some wonderful pictures to remember our experience. This is a MUST do!

Interesting day trip to agra, amazing taj mahal and its firt - We had a great driver joshi, who was able to drive thru the crazy indian traffic and bring us back for our flight home.
We had an knowlegeable guide arif at taj mahal and the agra fort.
Amazing structures to visit, such architectural wonders.
Only negative aspect: lunch was late at 14:30 when not taking lunch option. Bring a snack if not taking lunch as arif does both sites back to back.
