We had a great time, learned a lot and enjoy our time in Agra with our now new friend Monika. A wealth of knowledge, professional and an amazing positive perspective. Will highly recommend and will use again in the future when we visit Agra again.

Dear Felix and Kel, I am sorry happy to know that you enjoyed your tour with me, you are always welcome 🤗 to explore new places one more time with different cities as well…..
Monica was fantastic. Not just because she was extremely informative with a deep knowledge of local and national history but because she helped deal with all the various challenges and nuances one encounters in an unfamiliar exotic country. Would recommend her highly!

Hello Steve, I really appreciate your valuable feedback and glad you shared your experience 😇
We absolutely loved our time with Monika! She was so easy to work with on time and knowledgeable. We had two little ones and she was so patient with us not able to move quickly. I really wanted to take time to take photos during the tour and she was more than accommodating.

Dear Megan, Thank you so much for your time to write review I never expected it from you because I knew you have 2 kids and busy mother but even you thought about me, please accept my gratitude. I knew you will go that’s why I offered you dear because I do one tour in a day and I was free, I also wanted you to go one more time but finally you did see it 👌
Traveled with my three adult children from the US and we had a fantastic time with Monika. She is small but mighty! She was responsive, organized and thoughtful in helping us personalize our 2 day tour to Agra. I have already recommend her to friends traveling to India next month.
