If I come to north India tour, the first person I will always contact is Mr. Sonu. I have been taking his service since 2023 and it has been a joyful experience. I like his passion to explain in detail and good value for money. I end up paying him more because he deserves more than a standard Price. he is trustworthy and accommodating. I will surely take his service next time I come. Best Wishes.
Everything went very well. Guides and car drivers very helpful. My 80 year old mother needed a lot of support, the guides and driver Shareeq provided all the help needed.
This was our first trip to India. Touring with Tushar was incredibly insightful and overall great experience. Our guide showed us parts of Agra we wouldn’t have seen if went without a guide. Was worth it! Would trust and recommend to all friends and family!!
Tushar and his team are absolutely the best. Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Right from logistics to the tours in both Spanish and English were impeccable. They also made helpful recommendation on how to interact with local vendors, etc. Bonus! His team is great at photographs and don’t need to hire additional photographers Will 1000% recommend and will definitely be booking with him again on our next trip. He's a one stop shop for all your travel needs!
I’ve been to many countries in the last few years, and many wonders of the world. No experience or guide has been better than the Taj Mahal with Tushar. Not only is Tushar knowledgeable, he is also caring for his clients. He was able to quickly made adjustments to my times without complaint, and has been a blast to travel Agra with. If you are coming to Agra, this is the company to use.
We had an excellent experience with our Agra tour guide, Mr. Tushar Dutt Sharma. From the very beginning, he managed all arrangements seamlessly, including monument entry tickets and detailed historical narration, which made the entire tour smooth and enriching. Our original plan was to visit the Taj Mahal and Fatehpur Sikri in a single full-day itinerary. However, since the Taj Mahal remains closed on Fridays, Tushar ji proactively rearranged our schedule without any inconvenience to us. He guided us through the Taj Mahal on the first day itself and dedicated the next day fully to Fatehpur Sikri and Agra Fort — all without charging any extra fee. This flexibility and professionalism were truly impressive. He was consistently attentive to our comfort and preferences throughout the trip. His command of English is excellent, and his knowledge of local history, architecture, and cultural context added immense value to our visit. I would highly recommend Mr. Tushar Dutt Sharma to anyone planning a tour of Agra or nearby destinations. His dedication, honesty, and expertise make him a truly exceptional guide.
Awesome experience! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot about the architecture and the history of the Taj Mahal!
I have been traveling in northern India for a few weeks and Tushar was by far the best guide I’ve had since arriving. He was knowledgeable but also loads of fun and interesting and interested. I cannot recommend him enough. Brilliant.
I engaged with Mr. Tushar, as my private tour guide for Agra, covering Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Fatehpur Sikri. He has been very helpful in customizing the itinerary catering to my needs. Mr.Tushar is a very experience and knowledgeable tour guide. He explained the history behind each monuments with details and he takes great photos of me too! If u are looking for a hassle-free, professional service and a joyful trip, I strongly recommend Mr.Tushar to you!
Our tour was fantastic and worry-free. Tushar, our tour guide, and Satyavir, our driver, were professional, punctual, and helpful. We took a weekend tour, arriving on Friday and leaving on Sunday. They took care of us from arrival to departure, including airport transfers. The vehicle, a very comfortable SUV, and the driver were available for any dinner plans or special places we wanted to visit. We visited the Taj Mahal on a Saturday morning. Despite the crowds, we accessed the Taj Mahal quickly and efficiently, skipping long lines and minimizing security delays by not having bags with us. Tushar is a great storyteller who narrated history in an engaging and fascinating way, making our visit meaningful and interesting. We also visited other sites like the Agra Fort, the Akbar Tomb, and the Baby Taj Mahal. Tushar had excellent recommendations for restaurants and places to buy marble inlay art. We all ended up buying beautiful original pieces to bring back as memories of India. We loved the service so much that we plan to take other trips with Tushar to other regions of India.
Tushar Sharma was the perfect guide on our one day tour of Agra. He made our tour thoroughly enjoyable for our adult family of four. I highly recommend this tour guide, in fact he was flawless. His knowledge matched his respectful and genuine approach to the tour. He made the tour flow seamlessly so we knew how to the beat the queues, accommodated our timing so we could stop for meal breaks, made great suggestions on restaurants and his knowledge of the Taj and Agra Fort was terrific. A truly hassle free day, exactly what we wished for, for a once in a lifetime experience. We can not Thank you enough Tushar. Kind regards The Templeman Family Australia
If you're planning a visit to Agra and want more than just a rushed, cookie-cutter tourist experience—then having the right guide can make all the difference. And this is exactly where Tushar Sharma shines. He’s not just good—he’s outstanding. We visited Agra on March 3rd and had the privilege of having Tushar as our guide, thanks to a glowing recommendation from the tour company organizing our Delhi-Agra trip. From the moment we finalized our plans, Tushar reached out via WhatsApp to introduce himself and coordinate the details. That early communication already showed how organized and thoughtful he is. The morning of our trip, Tushar sent a detailed message with clear instructions on where to meet—complete with a photo of the parking lot, the exact address, and even a live location pin. He also shared a copy of his ID and a recent picture so we could easily recognize him. It made the logistics seamless—we just forwarded everything to our driver, and locating him was effortless. Now, here’s where things really started to stand out. Tushar is fluent in English (and maybe even more languages—worth asking!), which was perfect for our group, as most of my group were non Indians. Communication was smooth, and every single person in our group felt included and comfortable throughout the day. Despite arriving in Agra about two hours later than planned (thanks to some unavoidable delays), Tushar didn’t let that affect our experience. He didn’t rush us, didn’t skip any sites, and didn’t use the delay as an excuse to cut corners. Instead, he adapted the plan on the fly, ensuring we still got to see everything on our itinerary—without feeling hurried or pressured. He expertly guided us through both the Taj Mahal and the Agra Fort, using less crowded entrances that saved us valuable time—at both sites, we waited no more than 5 to 7 minutes to get in. Not once did he try to push us toward tourist traps or overpriced souvenir shops, which sadly is common with many guides. He stayed focused on us and our experience, tailoring the tour to our pace and interests. His knowledge of Agra’s history is impressive, but what truly makes it special is the way he shares it—through engaging stories that even our 10-year-old found captivating. It wasn’t just a list of dates and facts—it was storytelling that brought the monuments to life. And then there’s his local savvy. With limited time left in the day, he realized that trying to navigate Agra in our 40-seater bus would eat up precious time. So he came up with a brilliant workaround: for a small additional cost (about $30–$40 total), he arranged three tuk-tuks (auto rickshaws) so we could zip through the city and reach more sites in minutes instead of wasting an hour in traffic. Thanks to that call, we were able to explore additional monuments that we otherwise would’ve had to skip. He also gave us great local recommendations—like Salt Café, which turned out to be an excellent spot for lunch. In short, Tushar truly cares. He’s not just doing a job; he’s curating a memorable experience. He listens, adapts, solves problems, and ensures that your time in Agra is smooth, meaningful, and stress-free. His warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail make him more than just a tour guide—he’s a partner in your travel experience. If you’re heading to Agra and want to avoid the crowds, the chaos, and the tourist traps—and instead want a relaxed, personalized, and enriching experience—Tushar is the guide to go with. I can’t recommend him enough.
Amazing experience with this company. Top notch communication and pricing. Our driver, Naval, was an expert and he coordinated our visits and various sights with local guides. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. Our favorite spot was the Taj Mahal, but enjoyed learning about all of the other locations. Thank you for a wonderful trip!
Tushar was an exception host and tour guide for our time at the Taj Mahal. He displayed in depth knowledge, wisdom and much patience while working with us. He was passionate about history which was a bonus for us. We learned, we laughed and enjoyed a beautiful day. I highly recommend his services.
The tour guide is excellent and affordable! They helped us in customizing a day tour around Agra city, showed local markets and food and even arranged a private car for the day. We toured in the month of March, which is not too crowded. We had plenty time to explore around, listen to information and take pictures. I would recommend this guide to anyone looking for a decent, informed and affordable tour guide in Agra!
Tushar Sharma was a very funny and kind guide. I had a very valuable experience in Agra.
We spent the whole day with Tushar! We had 2 days in Agra and wanted to see as much as possible. As two Scandinavian girls who hadn’t been to India before, spending the day with Tushar was a great comfort. Very friendly and nice man.
Tushar was a perfect guide: he speaks very good English and tells many details of the history of the works. He accompanied me to visit the Taj Mahal and it was a visit full of information, just as I felt I had in him a support and a point of reference, should I need it.
