Incredible tour
Adam_T
, Apr 2022
I have so many positive things to say about this tour, especially our tour guide. First of all, I want to thank you Ashish for organizing such an amazing trip for us. I took a day trip by train and it was the most fantastic trip of my life. Our driver Hari collected us from our hotel and took us right to the train & our seats. Our train seats are first class Air-conditioned. Our tour guide Asif Khan met us in Agra railway station. Asif was friendly and very knowledgeable. He helped us every step of the way. We couldn’t have completed this without him. We went to the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort & the Babi Taj. Asif took us very great pictures. He is a very professional photographer too. We had a great lunch at Pinch of spice restaurant, the food was delicious. I would strongly recommend Asif & this tour company to anyone planning a trip to India. I can’t wait to come back to India and see the Taj Mahal again with my family.

Day trip to Agra
katy_P
, Apr 2022
We booked a Private Taj Mahal day trip by Gatimaan express train with All including from Delhi and it was an awesome trip. Our driver arrived on time and the car also was comfortable for two of us to travel. He helped us to show our train seats. This train takes only 90 minutes to reach Agra from delhi. Our tour guide Asif was amazing, Super friendly and explained everything about the sites and the Taj Mahal. He also knew a lot of tricks for special pictures, so now I have a lot of special and cool pictures to show to my friends and family. Lunch was great with vegetarian options. The car was modern, reliable & clean. The Driver was experienced and very capable. Definitely highly recommend his services !!!

Very well organized tour with helpful guide
Arya_A
, Mar 2022
Mr. Asif, our tour guide made this tour thoroughly enjoyable and smooth. Me and my wife were quite impressed by his knowledge about the Taj and other local attractions. Overall, the tour was very well organized. We were picked up from our hotel, helped to board the train and picked up by Asif in Agra. Same on the return journey, with Asif checking on us through texts till we got back to our hotel. Highly recommended .

Excellent tour !!!
steven_L
, Mar 2022
We only had one day in Delhi and were keen to use our limited time well. We had a unforgettable experience with this tour company, booked through Viator. We couldn't have asked for a better day visiting the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort & Baby Taj with our professional & knowledgeable tour guide Asif. He is very skilled at explaining the history in an interesting way and answered all my questions. He is also quite a skilled photographer and offered to take some fantastic shots of my wife and myself throughout the day.
Our car was very comfortable & the lunch was very good. I highly recommend this tour suggest you request Asif as your tour guide.
Thank You for everything !!!

Fantastic experience with a great tour guide
Arturo_G
, Mar 2022
The Train tour was very well organised. We were collected from our hotel in Delhi and drive to the Delhi railway station on time. We were escorted into our train seats. When we got off at Agra station, we were escorted from the train to air conditioned luxury vehicle. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable & helpful person. We enjoyed Tajmahal, Agra fort & baby taj. He is also quite a skilled photographer and offered to take some fantastic shots of my wife and myself throughout the day. We did not have to stand in long queues as the entry tickets were pre-purchased by Perfect Agra tours. Lunch was very good and the agra driver were very professional and friendly. From beginning to end everything went smooth. This tour is excellent for first time visitors to Indian. It would be good for families as well. Highly recommended this tour to anyone visiting Agra !!!

Great day trip to Taj Mahal from New Delhi!
John_R
, Dec 2020
This trip was awesome! our guide completely made it worthwhile. We went to the train station and were met by one guy and he snapped a picture of us and texted it to the guy in Agra. So, our actual guide picked us up and took us to all the sites and, of course, the Taj Mahal. what a great trip and our guide was awesome!

Agra Fort was the best visit
Alok_Nigam
, Mar 2020
It was a very spur of the moment decision to go on this one day tour to Agra
We really enjoyed the hospitality of the local tour operator with special mention to Mr Asif who was our guide for the day.We enjoyed his narrations and his company.
We look forward to doing more tours with Viator in the future.

Taj Trip via Train in February
Joseph_A
, Mar 2020
My colleague and I went on a tour with Asif Khan on a Saturday in late February. Asif seemed very knowledgeable of the city, and the tour allowed for plenty of time at each of the locations. As a tour guide he did a great job overall!
As far as the train trip, it was not as bad as expected, but it was significantly slower than the website suggested. Our hotel was around 45 minutes from the train station, then a train ride of at least 2.5 hours (not 1hr 4 minutes), and then the drive to sites in Agra. My recommendation...if you are close to the train station, take the train. If you are not, it's probably worth exploring the drive there (3-4 hours from Delhi).
Best part of the trip: Automatic. We had someone picking us up, dropping us off, taking us where we need to be the entire day.
Worst part of the trip: Being taken to a marble shop (not in the itinerary) and shown incredibly expensive marble, most of which was unaffordable.
Hope this helps!
