“Best day ever”
After having spent the day with Shahid sightseeing the Agra, I only have the highest recommendation for him. Right from the time of booking, Shahid was very communicative and clear about what to expect. And our day exceeded all expectations. We were collected by a comfortable SUV from Agra Cantt station to be taken to the Taj Mahal. With the quickest of entries we were inside in no time to marvel at the architectural wonder. Shahid shared a lot of the history and took us around avoiding the crowds. Conscious of the heat we stopped for lunch soon after at a fantastic place. Post lunch we visited authentic artisans and then a trip to the Agra Fort. Because our girls had fallen asleep, we let them be in the car under the care of the driver and we headed out for a quick exploration of the Agra Fort. The driver also was kind enough to keep the AC running for the benefit of the girls. We could have done the baby Taj but instead chose to do some shopping. With ample time for us to catch our train back for New Delhi we were dropped back at the station. Shahid is an exceptional person with good knowledge and also took us to the right places for shopping. He customised the day to suit our needs and gave our girls requirements the highest priority. Nothing felt rushed and the whole day passed by very smoothly. If you are planning to make a trip to Agra, there is no one else that I would recommend but Shahid as your host for the day. You won’t be disappointed and will come away more than satisfied.
