“A Tour to Remember! - My son & I had a wonderful time. Mr. Puneet Sharma arranged everything to accommodate our time we had in Delhi. Pick up at our hotel was a plus, our driver Mr. Omkar was amazing & a safe & reliable driver. I felt very safe in his car & he was also able to take us back to the airport. Our tour guide at Taj Mahal, Mr. Arun Rajput, was also an amazing tour guide. He was able to explain the history of the Taj Mahal. Thanks to Nikita tours & it’s wonderful team. I would definitely recommend this tour.” - Reviewed at 2024-08-29
