India's Golden Triangle: Luxury 3-Day Journey to Majesty

Let me preface this review by mentioning we booked it during Diwali, so traffic was EXTRA busy and resulted in us not being able to see everything on the itinerary. We also had our own timeline to work with which our guides were helpful in accommodating. Here are some objective notes of our group of 4's experience: #1 ....................We saw about 50-75% of the full itinerary each day................. #2.................... Our guides were very polite and knowledgeable, a different guide in each city.................... #3 ....................Our guides were KP, Asad, and Arvind. They all did a great job showing us around and working with us..................... #4 ....................The guides are given future work based on our reviews, so be ready for them to sit you down and look over your shoulder as you write the reviews. I have a feeling that many 5 star reviews were left by people feeling pressured to not leave a lower rating while being watched. .................... #5.................... In the same sense, if you are an anxious person or find it hard to say no, you'll find many on-tour shop experiences a little intimidating as they are trying to make a living off your purchases. I personally do not mind, but at least one member of my group didn't like that pressuring feeling. This is normal in India and many parts of the world so this isn't a huge deal, just something you should be aware. .................... #6.................... Our driver got us everywhere safely and was very thoughtful and courteous about bathroom and tea breaks. .................... #7.................... We never got any of the free breakfasts that were advertised. 0/2.................... #8....................Many of the routes were logistically poor as they did a lot of backtracking and because of the Diwali traffic this meant we spent usually 8-10+ hrs in the car per day. Our average time between the cities was about 6.5 hours with short breaks for gas/food/bathroom. It really took a toll on us but this was somewhat unavoidable. The routes should be adjusted during times of holidays and extra traffic to go in order of closest to furthest. .................... #9 ....................We booked our own airbnbs at every destination and our driver was Manoj who got us everywhere safely and on-time as best as possible. The car was comfortable except when we had to squish together to accommodate the front passenger seat for our guide. (we had 3 people in the middle and 1 stuffed in the back with our luggage).................... ........................................................................................................................ MY SUGGESTIONS: #1....................Have guides go over the intended route with you ahead of time as it doesn't necessarily match what is online. Research what you want to prioritize ahead of time and be forceful with your suggestions on what you want. It's important you speak up. .................... #2.................... Make sure you get your free breakfasts and mention the free breakfasts. .................... #3.................... Change routes during holidays to minimize backtracking. .................... #4....................Or maybe just don't book during a holiday if you're intent on seeing everything. This is not the fault of the tour company..................... #5....................(to tour guides) check in with your group to see if they're the types who want a full history breakdown or prefer to do a little more exploration on their own. Everyone is different and you might be surprised to learn some people are more interested in photos, walking, reading than they are in information breakdown. Something along the lines of "Before we begin this next tour, on a scale from 1-10, how much information / conversation are you interested in versus how much time would you like to wander on your own"

It’s so fun and helpful specially having a guide with us. On the 3rd day (tan mahal) tour, our guide rafiq who is also a photographer took lots of great pictures on us in this trip so we don’t need to hire photographers. Very nice place will surely comeback and do the same trip soon definitely a 5 star❤️❤️ love from Saudi

Our day starts yesterday at Deli Airport that were were picked up without any problem and we had a wonderful day around the capital with lovely Shaily, today we spent the day of the magical place in Agra, meeting the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort with Asad, that was also an amazing guide! We’re looking forward to meet Jaipur tomorrow and we are already sad that our journey is ending.

Agra is a wonderful place full of history and magnificent sights. It was made even better with help from my guide, Abdul. I would highly recommend this tour for those that want to learn and explore Agra.

This was an excellent tour. A good range of sites, all very well organised. We enjoyed meeting all of the guides, particularly Faiz in Agra who took extra care to make sure we were well looked after. The guides were all happy to adjust the itinerary as our plans changed. While they all tried to get us to go on unplanned shopping trips, they didn't push them too hard when we said we weren't interested. We were especially happy to have Riyaz as our driver for the three days. He was safe, skilled, professional, and good company. We took the five star hotel option and the hotels were all excellent. Highly recommended.

Being a first timer to India my wife and I wanted to experience some of the diverse culture this 3-Day Delhi, Agra and Jaipur Private Tour being an older couple this was a great choice. Our driver Rajat arrived at our hotel at our requested time and looked after us until he returned us to our hotel after the tour. He showed great skill in manoeuvring through the traffic of Delhi. The sights, sounds and smells of both New Delhi and Old Delhi were an experience in themselves. Our guide for Delhi, Shailey was wonderful and so passionate about history. After the Delhi tour we made our way to Agra. We booked the 5 star hotel package included within tour and stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott’s. Nice hotel but didn’t experience all the luxury as we had an early rise to catch the sunrise at the Taj Mahal, so it was an early night for us. Ali our guide was at reception ready to greet us. He explained what we would be doing and the process to get through security and ticketing so no hassles. Ali knew all the best viewing points and it was such a wonderful experience being there as the sun slowly appeared. He told all about the history of the Taj Mahal which was very interesting. After we did the full circuit of the Taj we went back to the hotel for breakfast and checkout before final sights of Agra then after saying goodbye to Ali set off for Jaipur. Arriving at the Radisson Jaipur for a relaxing time around the pool. 0800 start meeting our Jaipur guide Arbaz. Unfortunately my wife who was under the weather started to feel worse and Arbaz was a great help very caring but after a few areas of interest we decided to call it a day and head back to Delhi. Rajat, Shailey, Ali and Arbaz were very knowledgeable and professional at all times I’d recommend asking for these guides and driver if you go on this memory marking journey tour

Had a wonderful tour of Delhi our guide Shaily was fantastic very knowledgeable and helpful. She is very passionate on the history of Delhi and she made this trip a joy. The trip exceeded our expectations. I would recommend asking for Shailly if you’re planning on that a tour 5 out of 5.

Moon was amazing. I truly enjoyed my experience with him at Agra. I communicated that I wanted to do a photoshoot and Saree rental the night before, so he then arranged all of that. He drove a hard bargain for us with a great photographer. I felt like he really advocated for me the entire time and i enjoyed my time at Agra. Thank you.

The guide was very familiar with each spot and made the booking experience seamless for me and my friends. I suppose it would be better if we weren’t rushed through it
