We had a fantastic informative tour in Agra with Rishi Pal from Divyan Holidays. They took us to the sunrise at the Taj Mahal, Rishi Pal was awesome as he explained the history of the Taj.
The detailed knowledge was of years of study of the finest detail of construction materials and most importantly of the story.
After a quick breakfast we were shown beautiful Artisan Marble inlay workshop showing inlay work being made by descendants of artisans that worked on the Taj.
Next up was the tour of the Red Fort, again wonderfully informative. They have such an amazing interesting history.
In the afternoon Rishi Pal showed us more artisans and their beautiful work. Showing us a hand made carpet producer followed by embroidery artist. It was all so informative being shown how these beautiful artworks are being locally created.
Rishi Pal took us to a souvenir shop on the way to the Mehda bagh as I requested to be able to get some cheap souvenirs. The souvenir place was perfect for what I wanted.
I can highly recommend Rishi Pal, he was knowledgeable and so helpful, listening to all of our needs and wants.
