What people love about Private Tours in Golden Triangle
- 3-Day Private Golden Triangle Tour: Delhi, Agra & Jaipur – Taj Mahal Sunrise & Royal Palaces
The tour was perfect! We loved the overview, our guides were excellent provided us with in-depth knowledge of the tour which we loved. We will recommend this company without any hesitation.
9 Day Golden Triangle Tour with Ranthambore with 4 Star hotels was an amazing experience. I found him on Trip advisor and everything from communicating with the tour manager, Jitender ( amazing guy ) to every aspect of the tour, we felt like we were in very good hands and were being very well taken care of. Across all three cities, our tour guides were awesome - very nice, professional, knowledgeable, and fluent in English. Our favorite tour guide, however was Ajay in New Delhi. Within the few short hours we were with him, we felt like he became a part of the family. Every site and attraction that we were taken to in the 9 day tour was a surreal experience - a deep dive into India’s rich history and culture. Our driver for the entirety of the trip, Mr. Sunil also made the experience phenomenal. Not only was he an amazing driver in the crazy streets of India, but also very friendly, accommodating, and took it upon him to make sure had we had the best experience possible. I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested.
Golden Triangle with Tiger / 7 Nights / 4 Star Hotel with Breakfast / Private Transfer
- From Delhi: Private 4-Days Golden Triangle Luxury Tour
Amazing Agra and Jaipur 4-day tour from Delhi. We asked the agent to make the private tour which he made. We were a family of 4 and we picked up from our hotel in Delhi and drove to Agra. On arrival we checked into the hotel and after a while we started to visit the best part of the tour which was the Taj Mahal. We explored it and it is truly an amazing symbol of love and the mixture of an architecture of Indian culture. We also went to Jaipur and it has too many monuments to visit. Overall it was a good trip and agent was good.
