Taj Mahal & Agra dagstur fra Delhi med Gatimaan Express-tog

Mr. Imran made my Agra trip unforgettable. He met me right at the train station the moment we arrived, holding my photos on his phone. From there, we headed straight to the Taj Mahal. His stories and photo skills were amazing. At Agra Fort and Baby Taj, his calm, knowledgeable guidance brought Mughal history to life. If you want a seamless, honest tour starting the second you step off the train, book Mr. Imran.

The trip was well planned and executed. After booking for the tour, Arwaz texted me for details for the train tickets. As promised, he provided me the details of the train tickets, drivers and guide the evening before the trip. On the morning of the trip, we were greeted by Kishan who was very warm and friendly. Upon reaching the train station, he guided us to the train and waited with us to board the train. Upon reaching Agra, we were greeted by our guide Nadeem, and subsequently Sanju the driver. Both Sanju and Nadeem were warm. During the trip, Nadeem explained to us in great details the significance of each historic site we visited, in English which was very good. He is a good guide, however it could be his directness that rubbed us the wrong way when it comes to some of the questions and comments he made. He also did not look back to check if we were following him at certain points. He sent us off at Agra Cantt on the train. The drive by Kishan from Delhi after returning was good.

Høydepunktet var åpenbart besøket til det majestetiske Taj Mahal, men turen ble enda bedre takket være vår personlige Agra-guide Imran. Han var veldig tålmodig, kunnskapsrik og stolt over å dele de historiske faktaene. I tillegg, som en stor bonus, er han en fantastisk fotograf som hjalp oss med å få alle de fantastiske, minneverdige bildene. Hurtigtoget og den lokale lunsjen bidro også til opplevelsen. Alt i alt nøt vi dagen vår virkelig 😊 Takk, Imran og team!

Imran was knowledgeable and helpful on our tour, we enjoyed it very much! also helped us to take great pics during the tour.

Guiden vår var fantastisk!!!! Imran (Lykke og velstand) var guiden. Han fikk oss raskt gjennom køene og passet på oss. Han fungerte til og med som fotograf og tryllekunstner! Du vil finne ut hva den andre delen betyr når du møter ham!! Turselskapet er ganske responsivt og vil samarbeide med deg. Vi bestilte førsteklasse, men det var ingen ledige seter. Så de kommuniserte, og vi kunne diskutere alternativer og finne ut av alt!

Vi ble hentet kl. 06.30. Sjåføren var punktlig. Toget var rent, komfortabelt og også punktlig. Vi ble møtt av Imran på togstasjonen. Vi dro til Taj Mahal og Agra Fort. Taj Mahal er et sted man må besøke i løpet av livet. Jeg ønsket å dra til et sted som selger krus, magneter og penner. Vi ble tatt med til 2 steder. Ett sted som selger marmor. Fint å se hvordan det blir laget. Men vi følte oss presset til å kjøpe. Vi endte opp med å kjøpe en kopp der for 5000 IDR fordi vi følte oss dårlige ved å dra tomhendte. Et annet sted var sari-butikken. Men det er greit. Koppen er virkelig vakker, og jeg vil beholde den som et minne fra Taj Mahal. Jeg bruker ikke sari. Jeg følte meg litt presset til å kjøpe sari og lærvarer helt til jeg dro. Hvis du er en marmorsamler eller elsker bambussarier, ville disse to tilleggene vært flotte. Jeg dro ikke til Baby Taj. I stedet imøtekom Imran min forespørsel om å besøke Agra-markedet. Vi dro til kryddermarkedet og den berømte chai-en. Alt i alt var det en fin tur. Jeg ville definitivt dratt igjen.

insightful trip to a truly wonderful sight. upon booking, I immediately was reached out to by the tour operator to discuss the details of the trip. I appreciated the promptness in replies and the transparency in all the details about the tour. first time in Delhi and Agra so we weren’t familiar with the ropes here but my husband, mom and I all felt we were in good hands throughout. we were picked up from our hotel in Delhi and dropped off at the gatimaan express, which is the fastest train in India, it took us under two hours to reach Agra. there is food on board (veg and non veg options) and staff in the train to take care of you through the journey. the cabins we were in was second class seats (pretty spacious) which was also air conditioned. upon reaching we were greeted by Imran, our tour guide who’s passion and patriotism shined bright and proud. he was courteous, informative and knew so much about the history and little known facts that we didn’t get to read about. he took good care of all our individual interests for this tour and ensured we were getting ample time to take the photos, the scenery and everything in between. Imran is multilingual, he speaks Spanish, Hindi, Urdu and English proficiently and was able to answer all of our enquiries, questions with enthusiasm. Taj Mahal is truly such a wonder and we were even more impressed when the story was slowly and beautifully unraveled by Imran. it made our trip more memorable as well. thank you so much to Imran and the team who made it their mission to do honest good work, which is why I will recommend this to all my friends and family as well as anyone else who is visiting Delhi or Agra for the first time and don’t know what to expect- you’re definitely in good hands.

It was one of the pleasant experience. Especially, the tour guide Mr. Firoz was very humble and kind. He gave enough personal space for various activites, nevertheless the photography skill was also spectacular. Drivers(Mr. OM Prakash and Mr. Sanju) were kind and flexible to our need. Note : Firoz knows about places for clean bathroom/restroom. First photo is Mr. Firoz, good photogenic poses.
