Fun, informative and flexible - My family had a great experience on a tour arranged by Taj Wonder. Sumit arranged a custom tour for us, providing expert recommendations for our experiences while taking into account the places that we wanted to see and a few arrangements that we had already made. Our timing didn’t allow for travel by superfast train, so he arranged for transport by car by Mr Shyam who provided our safe and comfortable transport from our airport hotel to Agra, and then locally during the two days that we toured in Agra and Fatehpur Sikri. Once we arrived in Agra, our local guide, Danish, met us. Danish provided informative commentary about the locations we visited, and also shared with us general information about several topics that we were interested in including what daily life is like in India, family life and the education system. We particularly enjoyed our roadside stop for Chai tea with locals and the fun photos that he took for us and helped us pose for! We are thankful for both Danish’s and Mr Shyam’s help in finding an operational ATM - not an easy feat since we had arrived just after Holi. We had a different guide for our tour of Fatehpur Sikri who also was fantastic. We always felt safe and well taken care of by all four in this very friendly and professional team. By the end of the trip we felt that we had made new friends despite the short time we were together. We would highly recommend Taj Wonder, particularly this team, and will seek them out the next time we are in India.
