This trip was ideal for what we wanted: a sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal with no fuss. Our driver picked us up perfectly on time (2.15am) and drove us smoothly to Agra. We had a bit of concern as the seat belts in the back of the car weren't working, but everything else was fine in the car.
Our tour guide was informative and helpful, he answered many questions and was very kind. His English was a high standard that was really easy to understand. He also took lots of amazing photos of us and knew all the best spots to pose in front of. We didn't feel rushed to walk around and had an enjoyable visit. Although the weather was a bit cloudy, we did catch a bit of the sunrise and the sight was truly spectacular, worth waking up early for!
The breakfast at the hotel afterward was varied and delicious. We decided to go straight back to New Delhi following breakfast, as we were too exhausted from the early start. There was no issue with changing the schedule, we were driven directly back to Delhi. The driver even let us use his wifi egg. Although the driver was tired (by about 10 hours of driving), he still managed to return us to the hotel safely.
We really enjoyed our trip to the Taj Mahal and would recommend this to other travelers who want any easy, stress-free visit. All three of us (women) felt safe throughout the tour. It was much less stressful than arrange a trip to the Taj Mahal ourselves would have been, and perfectly suited to what we wanted.
