Born in Agra and spend my childhood days just 50 metres away from Taj Mahal wall, always fascinated with the beauty of the monuments , culture, history of my country and city. My childhood memories are playing in gardens of Taj Mahal with my friends, running in narrow lanes of colony built by Emperor Shah Jahan for the workers who built his dream monument dedicated to his wife. Living in a big family as a kid heard many tales from my grandfather and great grandfather of the city, history and culture of India. I myself Rizwan believe, a journey through India is enriching, inspiring and unforgettable. Namaste, I am working as tour guide for many 5 star and other leading hotels, foreign embassies and foreign missions, multi-national companies, travel agents etc. for past 18 years. I have the license by Ministry of Tourism, Government of India to work as a tour guide. Interesting travel experiences for interested people, that's what I believes. I like to interact to my clients, find out what their interests are and create individualized itineraries to suit their needs. I think of myself as travel architect, reaching into the vast knowledge and experience to find the perfect combination of experiences for each client. I also believe that Guides are cultural ambassador of one country. As local to the area, AGRA, I share my passion for the place I grew up in and take the guests sightseeing experience to a whole new level, showing them specific sights like Taj Mahal in more detail. I get the privilege to be the tour guide of Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton, Mark Zuckerberg, Leonardo dicaprio, Robert Gates, Donald Sutherland, Sharon Stone etc. . . . Book me through my tours to experience the wealth of knowledge through fascinating stories, facts and my own life experience as local boy and I will ensure that you will take the best memories from India and every city of the tour. 1.

Visit Taj Mahal and Agra fort in an exclusive private tour...
Overview of your Agra tour
Taj Mahal most remarkable fact is that it was built by Emperor Shahjahan for a woman: his favorite wife ; Mumtaz Mahal. As a local, born and brought up in Agra the Taj Mahal has always mesmerized me with its simple but grandiose look. This magnificent place radiates with romance and warmth of a human for another human being and it is one of the most elegant and stunning architectural masterpieces of the world. Located in the historic city of Agra, India, the Taj Mahal is a true symbol of love and devotion, and an essential destination for anyone looking to explore India's rich culture and heritage. Other than Taj the other monument of great historical significance and very worthy of your visit is Agra Fort. A beautiful fort with a history of its own and walking through the courtyards of this palatial red-sandstone fortress you will travel back in time and sense the lifestyle of the Royal family and your fascination for this place will only grow bigger.

Rizwan went above and beyond for the tour. Communicating with him was really easy and he was very flexible. The Taj Mahal tour felt so personal my experience was perfect. Rizwan knows everything and the tour felt more like a walk with good chats rather than a boring tour. After the Taj Mahal Rizwan brought me to the Agra Fort. I can only recommend Rizwan for a private tour of the Taj! Thank you for the experience!

My partner and I went to the Taj Mahal at sunrise. Rizwan was an absolute professional. He picked us up at our hotel at 6am and whisked us to the ticket counter. Given how the Taj can be crowded at sunrise, it was great he got us to a very short line. We ended up being some of the first people there. He was incredibly kind to tell us a detailed account of the Taj Mahal, all while giving us time to take photos. I recommend him to anyone interested in a tour with him at the Taj or Golden Triangle.

Let's keep it simple. We've just finished a tour with Rizwan, and it was perfect and simply amazing! Rizwan was utterly knowledgeable not just in the Taj Mahal, but in culture, religion, history... But most important to us, he made us feel like royalty. I overheard other tour guides and their tours sounded methodical and mechanical. Ours was magical! It was bespoke, it was special. Again simple... don't go elsewhere if you want to be royals for a day... book here! You won't tegret it.
