Jaipur

All the hassles of arranging transportation are completely solved. Meeting my driver, Sanjay, was even more wonderful than visiting the Taj Mahal. The driver stayed at a nearby accommodation and spent three days with me. Not only did he take me to my destinations, but he also took me to recommended restaurants for breakfast, lunch, and dinner at whatever time I preferred. While I ate, he waited nearby for me. To me, he wasn't just a driver; he was my travel companion in India. Of course, his safe driving skills were also flawless. At the sightseeing spots, I requested Japanese-speaking guides. The guides were different for Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur, and each of them is a local who grew up in their respective city. All of them have deep knowledge of history and architecture, and their Japanese communication skills were completely fine. I traveled alone, and I think that 23,000 yen for all of this is unbelievably cheap. To mention a drawback, there are many visits to local shops that are not on the itinerary. It is fun to look at folk crafts, but being pressured to buy them each time is honestly a hassle. If those visits were just stops, that would be one thing, but visits to some famous sites were cut as a result. For example, we didn't visit Humayun's Tomb because there wasn't enough time and on the grounds that it looks similar to the Taj Mahal. I almost had Itimad-ud-Daulah skipped for the same reason, but I spoke up and had him take me there. As for Jaipur, I didn't visit any of the four places on the itinerary. I think this was partly because I added the elephant village experience option. However, it was nice that I was able to visit Amer Fort, which wasn't in the original plan. The tour company probably builds the schedule flexibly, taking into account traffic congestion caused by local festivals. While I am deducting one star for these drawbacks, the original value for money is so incredible that it feels like a six-star experience, so I am ultimately completely satisfied with five stars. Come to think of it, being asked to post a TripAdvisor review every single day was also a bit of a hassle. On that platform, I mainly wrote reviews about the guides.

Vi hade en fantastisk Golden Triangle-tur. Shamin, vår guide i Delhi, var kunnig, vänlig och tålmodig. Han delade med sig av Delhis historia och kultur på ett intressant sätt och gjorde vårt besök trevligt. Zeeshan, vår guide i Agra, var professionell och mycket kunnig om Taj Mahal och Agra Fort. Hans förklaringar och berättelser hjälpte oss att uppskatta dessa otroliga monument ännu mer. Han tog verkligen vackra bilder som ett proffs. Monis Ali, vår guide i Jaipur, var verkligen enastående och höjdpunkten på vår resa. Med en doktorsexamen i turism var hans passion för att dela med sig av kunskap tydlig från början. Han väckte Jaipurs historia, arkitektur och kultur till liv med fascinerande detaljer och inspirerande berättelser och hjälpte oss med våra foton. Och tack till vår chaufför Sanju, som alltid var punktlig, pålitlig och glad att dela med sig av sin kunskap om Indien. Rekommenderas varmt!

the Tja Mahal tour with imran was awesome he was a very knowledgeable tour guide

I had to do this tour solo because my friend could not make the tour with me. I was pleasantly surprised by how great the tour has been organised. I truly enjoyed the experience of going to all the spots visited during this tour especially the spots in Agra. Every spots are maintained very well and to top it off the guide for the Agra's tour, Ashiya, really has the in depth knowledge about the history and the uniqueness of the tourist attractions. Not only that I enjoyed the experience but I also learned a lot during this tour. The driver was top notch as I felt so comfortable during all the short and long travel between each destination. He was kind enough to drop me off to my final destination of choice before going to the airport. The only spot that I didn't enjoy is the Keoladeo bird sanctuary but it's only because it was hot that day and I had to walk a lot. Overall the tour has been one of my highlight holiday this year.

Mycket tillmötesgående guide, kunnig inom historia, vet hur man tar bra bilder och var man kan äta utsökt mat. Sammantaget gillade vi verkligen turen! 💞

it was a great tour. My guide, Mr Ali Amzad was very professional and engaging during the tour. He cared about the tour and the guest, and how the itinerary will be accomplished. He is easy to talk to and always asks if I’m okay as a guest. His guide about the places are very informational. The driver and the itinerary are also good. very recommended tour operator

We had a full day exploring Jaipur sites with Kashish our guide, who is very knowledgeable. It was raining all day but Kashish organized the tour in such a way that we would be able to optimize our time. Overall, a very good day.

it was a nice experience to visit Taj Mahal and and other destinations in Agra. The guide is knowledgeable about the place and the driver is very nice

Muhammed is such a nice guide. He would always give us option if we want to pay certain entrance fee. We never felt like we need to buy or pay for certain stuff. he is quite knowledgeable and overall a nice experience.
