Construction of the mausoleum was essentially completed in 1643 but work continued on other phases of the project for another 10 years. The Taj Mahal was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983 for being “the jewel of Muslim art in India.

In 1983, the Agra fort has been inscribed as UNESCO World Heritage site.The fort can be more accurately described as a walled city.

Marble Delight! - The tour was amazing, and the tour guide Hassan is very knowledgeable about the relevant history of the Taj Mahal and the Agra Fort. The handicraft shop that you'll visit is just so wonderful as well, it's scary! I could easily leave all my money there and just by all the marble!
The driver was very good and careful too. You know, driving in India ain't easy. Mahendra managed really well!

Great Agra tour experience! - What a great tour of Agra!
I did not have a lot of time for planning but the booking team was patient in working through the best options.
Mr Ombir is a safe and conscientious driver and skillfully picked his way through traffic.
My guide Vikram provided such a great tour. All the elements you expect are there; friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about his work. Of course photos are needed and V knows the best spots and the best angles for great pictures to share the beauty and experience. The best part for me is that Vikram’s energy is infectious and he pulled me though despite my exhaustion after a quite active week of business meeting in three cities. What a great way to wrap up my first trip to India!

Great experience - We had a wonderfull weak in India thanks to DIPT travel, Driver India Private tours. I found the agency scrolling on the internet. At first I was a bit reluctant to work with somebody local since I live in Europe and have never been to India but mr Uday responded very quickly on my mails and he was was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our trip planning. He took care of all the arrangements and promptly addressed any concerns we had. Thanks to Mr. Uday, our trip was organized and stress-free. He contacted us several times during the trip for follow up. When we arrived at the Delhi airport at 3.30 AM our driver Mr Hansarej was waiting with a sign. He welcomed us with a warm smile … Mr Hansarej was a reliable and skilled driver who ensured our safety and comfort during our travels. He is a professional diriver (in very hectic cities) being friendly and approachable all the time. He was always waiting and in time for us. We had to reschedule our trip but he was very flexible about that point. Mr Hansarej's professionalism contributed to the positive experience we had during our trip. We definitely come back !

Great day trip from Delhi to Agra - We had a great day trip from Delhi to Agra, where we saw the Taj Mahal and the Agra Fort. Our driver, Mahindra, was friendly, polite, and timely. He offered to stop along the drive for refreshments and pointed out landmarks along the way - made the drive very comfortable to and from Delhi! Our Agra tour guide, Rahul, was great to talk to and very knowledgeable about the city’s history and the landmark architecture. He also took many great photos for us, pointed our details we wouldn’t have noticed, and kept us moving ahead of the crowds. We would definitely recommend DIPT for a day trip option from Delhi.
