Mr Dilip arranged for the Express train from Delhi to Agra; a driver was punctually waiting and arranged for a knowledgeable guide to take us to The Taj and Agra Fort amongst other places on a private tour.
The guide Ms Sheila was good, and knew all the spots for expertly angled photos; more than this it is wonderful to support women guides breaking into the patriarchal society of thus far dominated by males. After the fort we went off to a Zardosi trader who showcased how the intricate stitching is done on framed pieces, bags, jewelry etc, the leather shop, and Petha shop. Thank you for a memorable trip to Agra.
