• This tour is an amazing experience and definitely one worth taking as there is no place like India. From exploring the bustling streets of old Delhi with the safety of an experienced guide to the awesome views and beautiful scenery, there's something for everybody on this tour (especially the food).I personally found the rest between activities enough and had retained energy throughout the tour, also the hotels chosen were up to a good standard and offered needed services like laundry. There optional activities were amazing amlnd you can pick and choose to what best suits you.We were also given enough freetime to explore for ourselves and buy things at markets, knowing that if we had any questions or concerns our guide would go above and beyond to help us.Our guide gave us great advice on what not to eat, what to eat, where to shop and had a broad range of knowledge on Indian society and locations we visited.If you have an open mind and the need for exploration this tour is for you. Couldn't recommend this tour enough, especially the food!

• We did the four day Agra-Jaipur-Delhi tour on 13th July 2024 with Taj Tour TripDue to our flight times we needed to make some adjustments to the schedule. Mr Aahil At Taj Tour Trip was very accommodating and tailored the itinerary exactly around our flights.We were met at the airport by their driver and he remained with us throughout the tour. It was great doing it this way as we weren’t hanging around waiting for loads of other people …… to then trundle around on a huge bus. It is so much better to have your own private car.The hotels (all 4 star) were much better than expected. Clean with decent sized rooms. In each destination we had a specific local guide (three in total) who we would meet in the morning and they would be with us for the rest of the day – each guide was very knowledgeable and once again it was so much better having your own guide ……… and not gathering around someone with a flag, like you are on a school trip or somethingThe overall cost of the trip was extremely competitive. Please note that it may not include the actual entrance fees. This was made clear to us from the beginning ……… but maybe some people may not fully appreciate this. I suspect every tour operator does this to keep their prices as low as possible. Just make sure you factor it in – I reckon it probably cost another 100USDI would highly recommend Taj Tour Trip if you are considering this type of tour.Feel free to message me if you need any more informationMark B (Australia)

• Overall we found the tour to be wonderful, mainly because of the attentiveness of the tour organiser as well as the driver.Regarding the hotels, we think that the best one was definitely the one in Agra. However, the ones in Jaipur and Delhi were mainly for local tourists, so the buffet was oriented to their consumption and did not have products such as pasteurised yoghurt (necessary to avoid traveller's diarrhea) or the waiters at the buffet did not speak English properly, so communication was terrible.I think they should change this and host tourists in better prepared hotels.Also, we asked for a change of room in Delhi because the room was dirty, and the towels were stained, and the door was broken at the electric lock.On the other hand, the guides, practically all of them are in cahoots with vendors and restaurants, so they offer you very high prices for local products.We didn't realise this until we arrived in Jaipur, so that in Agra, for example, we paid 200 rupees for simple souvenirs, which were really worth 20 rupees.This is what made us the saddest part of the whole tour.On the other hand, the driver Danish was always polite and friendly to us. He always had a cold bottle of water ready for us, and tried to drive without jumping around too much because I was pregnant.

• The agency went over and above to create a tailor-made wildlife trip (and culture) to Karnataka. Agency and driver were very responsive and helpful in every occasion (e.g. when an Indian credit card was only accepted). We are happy to use agency services again in the near future.

• Was a good itinerary. I went with my Dad and the tour was a private driver with tour guides (of varying quality) in each of the cities. Worth noting that over the 8 days, it's a day of sightseeing and then a day of driving so over the 8 days, there are 4 days of sightseeing. Our driver, Rakesh, was excellent - caring, thoughtful, a good driver and always on time. The hotels were quite good although some of the locations were a bit out of the main centre. We had a hiccup at the beginning on the booking as they booked us the wrong room but was eventually resolved. Also, if you are desperate to see a tiger, it is low probability at Rambanthore during Monsoon season.

• Praveen was our driver, and Sonia was our organizer, and we where very impressed with both of them and the way they received us, treated us and helped us. It's so important, especially in India, to have good honest and professional people who can help you, guide, and advice you, and these two is welcome to be my guides anytime. I had a very good time, and it was very beautiful places and exciting stories.

• I had an absolutely amazing tour of Agra and would book with Sonia and Joyful Holidays again in a heartbeat. Sonia is incredible and cares very deeply about her customers’ experience. She was beyond helpful when I had to make a last minute change to my tour. She put me completely at ease. I am so thankful to have found her and her business.Raju was an incredible driver. I was extremely comfortable the entire time I was with him. And Dilip was an amazing tour guide. He has a clear passion for Agra and was very knowledgeable and funny. I had an amazing time with both Raju and Dilip. I was sad to say goodbye to both of them at the end of my tour.

• What a wonderful surprise this tour was! Top hotels, a wonderful driver and fantastic knowledgeable guides in every town. As an American woman traveling alone through India I was concerned about so many aspects of the trip - the lodging, being alone/lonely, safety, disorganization etc. Every one of these fears were immediately assuaged the minute I was picked up at Delhi airport and taken to The Taj. My organizer, Amit, my driver, Harpal, and each and every guide in every town had only my interest, safely and cultural experience in mind in every aspect of this adventure. I could not be happier with my rich and safe experience. I never felt alone as I had such wonderful guides and staff committed every day to my having the best experience. THANK YOU for the trip of a lifetime!!!

• Be aware that this tour has many extra costs. The only things covered were hotels with breakfasts, tour guides and drivers ( who still expected or demanded tips). Almost all entrance fees were not covered. Expect to pay an extra $30-$50 US dollars a day extra to see sights listed on the itinerary.

• Over all it was good but I expected more free time at each site. Some of the tour guides were moving too fast. Also some of them expected a big tip which is not obligatory.

• The tour itinerary was good and the guides were knowledgeable and helpful. My only feeback is:1. Please, please put on the itinerary that tours ARE NOT included in writing. Dont assume that people will know this. I have been on a few tours that they were.2. Please also mention that for India tours, CASH is king and not many tour spots have credit card facilities3. Tipping is an expectation for guides, food providers, tour drivers etc and for tourists to budget for 5000 rupees per day minimum each. ( I would advise 10000)My driver Monaj was excellent and the perfect person to have on tour

• Guide was excellent and itinerary coincided with Holi in Pushka - great fun. Last two stages by sleeper train were also fun but tiring. With the final day a Monday many places in Goa were closed.

• Nice mix of activities and experiences. The organization was well done. Jai kept things on track really well with the bus and accommodating everyone's needs.

• They support animal cruelty! Our guide was excellent - however they offer camel rides, where the camels are in bad shape and mistreated and shows where they “magician’ use live animals, such as pigeons in a show in Pushkar. This is absolutely cruel and I cannot recommend a tour that uses animals for entertainment and claim it is not cruel. I really hope they will reconsider the animal options..

• I cannot recommend this tour enough !! We had the absolute best time on this tour, and it was thanks to the professionalism and kindness of the tour guides and our amazing driver. Our tour guides in each city were very knowledgable! They explained the history behind what we saw, and answered all our questions. This tour not only showed us the main attractions of each city, but also smaller places showcasing the talented people of the areas and what they create!

• the tour itself was good there were times when i felt we were being rushed to leave when i would have preferred to stay longer instead of doing rug & leather demo/sales pitches at us.(Shopping was not a reason i chose this holiday) & i felt we were being used as bait for the various companies to make money.i did get sick at one point & as i only ate at provided accommodation & tour restaurant stops it was obviously from one of these places whose hygiene standards i thought was poor.communication was quite poor, & some of the published information was unclear & caused some unpleasant unnecessary issues while on tour.

• Overall this trip was. Some of the hotels were less than desirable but most of them were amazing. The one downside is some of the food that comes with some of the hotels were okay. All the guides were amazing. If there's one negative is this tour went from 10 days to 9 days. I would hope they would reconsider because 9 days is not enough. There's a bit of jet lag that you have to endure if you're coming from somewhere like where we did the USA. Wish we had more time in Istanbul. Overall I had an amazing experience and I would highly recommend this trip.
