- Agra Fort - Discover Agra Fort, one of the best fort in India, built by the Mughal Emperor Akbar with numerous other constructions, for example the Musamman Burj, later where Jahan’s own son arristed him at the same place where Shah Jahan used to see the Taj Mahal and had taken his last Breath.
15:30 hrs: Visit to see the art of zardozi, heritage artwork use to done by Harem ladies at the time of Mughal emperor.
- Tomb of Itimad-ud-Daulah - Nicknamed the Baby Taj, the exquisite tomb of Mizra Ghiyas Beg should not be missed. This Persian nobleman was Mumtaz Mahal’s grandfather and Emperor Jehangir’s wazir (chief minister). His daughter, Nur Jahan, who married Jehangir, built the tomb between 1622 and 1628, in a style similar to the tomb she built for Jehangir near Lahore in Pakistan. Itmad-ud-daula has a special place in the chronicles of both history as well as architecture. This is precisely because Itmad ud Daula is the very first tomb in India that is entirely made out of Marble. This is actually a mausoleum that overlooks the River Yamuna and is a tomb of Mir Ghiyas Beg, a minister in the court of Shah Jahan.
17:30 hrs: Drive back to Delhi via expressway.

Experienced Driver and Tour Guide - Good and fast communication with Bilal. Price is quiet competitive. Local tour guide provided lots of information about the exceptionel history of Taj Mahal and Agra Ford. Took nice photos for my, helped me through the queues and secured my from hookers. After the tour i was invited to visit a Marmor fabrication. The driver Ravi brought me where ever i wanted and was alwa.ys ready for pick up to the next station. He is very experienced and always calm and friedly. I really enjoyed this trip and would book it again.

Outstanding tour from a phenomenal operator - This was a very last minute booking and I must say I was very impressed with the company. I contacted Bilal via WhatsApp the day before the trip and he managed to organise everything for us without any fuss. Our driver was waiting outside our hotel 15 minutes early and the transport was seamless. Our tour guide Sanjiv was phenomenal. He knew everything about the sites we visited and the restaurant he recommended to us was amazing. This was a brilliant trip and we couldn’t have asked for more from the team. Kudos to all involved.

Majestic Taj with amazing guide - Bilal is unbelievably knowledgeable about history, culture, architecture, religion and Agra. He knows *everyone* and all the ins and outs of navigating the various sites, greatly enhancing my experience. Fluent in English, Urdu, Arabic, Hindi and Japanese(!), he fielded all of my many (many) questions with diplomacy and aplomb. He’s also a lot of fun! Extra plus: he knows all the photo ops and is a great photographer. The context and insight Bilal provided made my visit to the Taj Mahal and the Agra Red Fort truly extraordinary. Highest recommendation!

Great experience having Bilal as our guide - I have read all the other positive reviews and have to agree with everything the reviewers said. Through Bilal we learned a great deal about the Taj Mahal, the fort and India as a whole - both historically and current events. Bilal was fun to be with and presented the information in an interesting and friendly way. Some of our other guides were very serious and strict. Bilal showed us his warm personality. Highly recommend.

Memorable trip to the Taj - Rishi our Trailfinders selected guide made our two visits amazing. His knowledge was exceptional, he pointed out things the tourist wouldn't notice. Agra Fort first then the beautiful Taj. Be prepared, the Taj will bring you to tears, well it did me...We have some wonderful photos.
The smog was bad in the morning so be prepared. Wonderful experience.

Great tour and great guide! - From the moment we arrived in Agra the trip was a hit! Bilal was an excellent tour guide! Honest, fun and very knowledgeable about the attractions and the history. He made the trip unforgettable. We visited Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and some local shops for shopping with minimal hassle. I really enjoyed everything about the trip, especially our tour guide. Thanks Bilal!

Too expensive for the level of service provided!! - The Taj Mahal and the Fort are obviously amazing, but the standard of management in terms of fee collection was very disappointing and there was a lack of clarity in what was included in the price of the tour regarding entrance fees and drinks. On the whole, it was very expensive considering the level of service we received.
