Achter de Taj Mahal met uitzicht op de zonsopgang of zonsondergang door Tuk Tuk Ride

Geweldige communicatie voor het moment van boeken. Farid en tuk tuk bestuurder waren precies op tijd. Ik hield van elke minuut van de tuk-tuk-rit (voelde me ondanks gek rijden in Agra veilig). . . Farid was deskundig zonder overdreven te zijn. . liet me de beste fotospots zien, vertelde me een aantal echt interessante feiten, helaas geen zonsondergang vanwege mist, maar eerlijk zag Taj Mahal er toch geweldig uit. . . Farid is een gewillige fotograaf (hoewel ik meestal niet poseer voor foto's, nam hij een aantal geweldige foto's waar ik van hou. Zie foto's die ik heb geüpload). Ging naar een winkel voor souvenirs op de terugweg, de liefste man daar. Dus verkooppraatjes, kwaliteit van goederen is onwerkelijk. . Ik heb gekocht, maar het was omdat ik de items wilde en ook een geweldige prijs. . . Kortom, reis is onder geprijsd voor wat je krijgt en je moet helemaal boeken. . . Bedankt voor een geweldige middag / avond?

What a great time this was! It was fun, crazy and overall fantastic. Our party of 5 was met in our hotel lobby by two guides and walked to our tuk-tuks. A mad dash through city streets brought us near the Taj Mahal, which we'd visited earlier in the day. A short walk brought us to our bikes !. The 2 ladies of the group went by cycle rickshaw the poor man had his work cut out for him!, but the gentlemen in the party along with the guides went to the river by bicycle. There was a little bit of a wait because the small boat captain was working with the police to free another boat that was stuck in the mud the river was very low, but we had a beautiful view of the Taj Mahal while we waited. Finally, a short walk down the embankment beware of cow patties and other debris on the banks, the Yamuna River and riverbank is very polluted, and onto a small wooden boat where we sat on the flat, wooden, open deck of the boat and were punted into the river by our captain as the sun was going down. It was definitely beautiful, see my photo. The boat ride was short, but we took as many pictures as we wanted and it was actually very serene. Back on dry land again, we reversed our trip and were soon back where we dropped the bikes off and walking to our tuk tuks. Our guide asked us if we wanted to stop by his uncle's shop on the way back to the hotel and we agreed. A VERY mad dash through the busy and crowded streets OMG, traffic is simply CRAZY in Agra!, and we were at the uncle's shop and enjoying the opportunity of a little bit of shopping such beautiful fabrics away from the crowds. Back in the tuk tuks soon after and back to our hotel just down the road. We had a seriously fantastic time, although at times we'd wondered what we'd gotten ourselves in for. I would highly recommend this trip, we were safely transported to and from and we really had a great time. It's one of the highlights of our big trip to India.
