WITNESSING THE MAJESTIC MONUMENT AWAKEN WITH TAJMAHAL PRIVATE HOLIDAYS

  Words cannot explain the appreciation I have for Balvir, my tour guide and owner of this company. I met Balbir while on a business trip and had a... read more day scheduled for a private tour of the Taj mahal. Balvir met us a few miles outside of Agra; drove with us to the front gate of the Taj and from their - well he just took us from place to place, provided amazing insights into the history and made sure we were hydrated and safe. Yes, safety is a concern for many visitors, and I wasn't worried one moment - maybe when the monkey was sitting next to me, and I had no idea - but Balvir took care of ensuring I was fine.

I have traveled around the world - the TAJ is amazing and Balvir is very impressive - both as a guide and as a person - we got to learn about each other over the 8 hours - if you are looking for a trusted tour guide, I highly suggest using Balvir and his team.

Okay few things to know - drink bottled water and have extras with you (it gets hot fast). If you visit the rug store or stone store - it is okay to say "thanks but no thanks" after the pitch - if you buy something, the price is negotiable but at the end of the day are you buying the item for a deal or rather to have a piece you can relate with forever - negotiate but remember they live off what we are willing to part with.... be fair! Special call-out to the stone salesman (nice education and experience); rug store was interesting and free beer is a plus - enjoy the full experience and see the amazing work they produce (it is part of the full cultural experience if you ask me).

If you buy the photo package - get the files downloaded to your phone before you leave. How they do it is a bit odd, USB direct into your phone (it’s okay, you get all the photos in 2min and say WOW - I have this many photo's) - btw, the photo package is worth it - they know all the shots and angles you will be impressed if you use the photo guys (pay once you have everything!) - Balvir will take care of everything - you just settle up with him when you leave.

Overall - great experience, if you come for the day and bring water and snacks; be prepared to walk in the sun and be amazed by a spiritual vision and Balvir's honest and deep insights.

Thank you, Balvir - I hope you and your family are well. I truly feel the experience you offered me has changed my life positively and I can't thank you enough!

- Cheers Brother! DK
