Adesh was an awesome tour guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. He was also a good photographer and professional in the way he conducted the tour. Boby was a safe driver who arrived on time, communicated well on phone, and also very friendly. I visited on a tight schedule from Mumbai but these two managed to make my day trip a memorable one!

They did an awesome tour of Taj Mahal and Agra fort, explained about the history and answered all questions. Made good memories to keep forever visiting one of the world wonders. Our driver RN Sharma took us back to Delhi fast and secure.
Bindu was my tour guide and she was absolutely wonderful. We spent one half day exploring Agra Fort and the back of the Taj Mahal ( the Taj Mahal was not open that day). Bindu took lots of professional looking photos for me. The next day, we had a sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal. Bindu made certain that I was appropriately and respectfully dressed for this momentous occasion. Again, she took many photos of me at the Taj Mahal and I am so grateful to her. No one wants the photos of a lifetime in disarray and Bindubmade sure I was not disappointed. She is an excellent tour guide.
Hired this company for private tour with 16 people. pick up at Delhi airport to hotel. Then next day tour of Dehli, lunch and drive to Agra hotel. Then Friday siteseeing with Agra Fort, marble and rug artisans demonstration and lunch. Took us to a Sikh temple also and explained the religions and offshoots. Also to botanical gardens to see Taj Mahal at sunset. Then 5 am pickup to tour Taj Mahal, back to hotel and then to airport. The bus was nice and air conditioned. Assistant was helpful in getting luggage on and off bus and assisting passengers and passing out water frequently. The driver was good at navigating this town safely. Shyam was excellent with history and culture of all the sites. He planned the time that the group wanted to do and recommended time at Agra fort rather than Dehli fort. He bargained with all the sellers for books and souvenirs for us. Was very patient when we got tired, hot and cranky. Had us take a 2 hr break in afternoon at hotel to rest. They drove 3 people to dinner and waited and drove them back to hotel rather than get a cab. He also arranged wheelchairs and pushers for 3 people with health issues for the long tours around the sites. The hotels Meridia and Courtyard at Marriot were nice also and restaurants they chose were excellent. They also checked us in on flights and gave us boarding passes electronic and paper to get in the airport doors. Sometimes people met up at wrong spot so just clarify when and exactly where to meet if separated due to size and so many people in India. Also clarify when going to temples to have knee covers but the temples also had coverups for the ladies and men.
SAM Tours and Travels provided exceptional service from start to finish for our Same Day Delhi-Agra tour. Our driver, Juyel, was calm and competent in all traffic conditions. Our very personable tour guide, Shyam, had outstanding knowledge of the historical, engineering and architectural details of the Taj and the Fort, making for a wonderfully engaging tour. We wholeheartedly recommend this tour.
Great tour. Got picked up from Delhi by car, reliable driver Rahul and comfortable car. Shyam joined me in Agra and provided the best Taj Mahal experience. He made a tour tailored for me and answered all my question. Also, took pictures of me on top locations without any queues. Can’t find anything better in this tour.
$120 for return private car day trip from Delhi for 2. Bipin our driver was great, safe driver and clean air conditioned car. Shayam our guide in Agra was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. We visited both the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort in Agra. Thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend. A very convenient and well priced day trip. Entrance tickets not included, but cost c. £5.
Smooth trip and tour guide was knowledgeable, will do again , learned a lot and time went by quickly
A very friendly driver and a super clean car were the foundation for an excellent experience. Additionally, the guide in Agra was very knowledgeable providing both a good overview but also great details to set everything in context. The whole trip was really valuable. FYI: The full-day trip was actually from Gurugram not from New Delhi.
What a great tour! I was a little anxious to travel alone as it was my first time in India, but my driver Sanjeev arrived right on time as scheduled at 7am at my hotel in Gurgaon. He was very friendly, the car was clean, his driving was calm. He stopped a few times for me at the better travel stops for washroom, coffee, etc. Once we arrived in Agra, we were joined by Shyam my tour guide. He explained the ticketing process at the Taj Mahal to me and made sure he stayed by my side, even got in the line and purchased the entry fee tickets on my behalf, got me a bottled water, made sure I had an umbrella with me, etc. Shyam was the best tour guide I've ever had, and I've been on quite a few private and group tours through Viator, etc. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the Taj Mahal and made sure that I understood all the sites and the history on the property as well. He took a lot of photographs of me, was even excited to do so and he has a skill in the photographer area! We also traveled to Agra Fort which was just as incredible, and again he knew the lay of the land and was able to guide me through the maze of rooms and areas with a history lesson all along the way. I can't say enough about Shyam's friendliness, deep knowledge of India history, and passion for these landmarks. Needless to say, seeing the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort would be incredible even if on my own, but I would not have understood what I was witnessing like I was able to with Shyam at my side! He also took me to a few upscale shops to see the marble/gemstone pieces being made and to see local art, where I was able to confidently purchase a hand cut emerald and a few other gifts for my wife and home. The drive home was also peaceful. We didn't stop for lunch but was offered and had snacks along the way, I was glad we used the extra time to visit a few shops instead of a sit down lunch. Again, best experience I could possibly ask for in a tour!
Sunny arranged the trip for 3 of us from Delhi to Agra and back in a day. Since the fog was dense in the morning, our guide, Pavan, suggested that we visit the Agra Fort first to provide time for the fog to clear. That was a great idea and we enjoyed thebfort and learned about the history at that time. PAVAN was knowledgeable and explained clearly. The Taj Mahal was the next highlight and the sun broke through the fog slowly but surely. It was surreal to see the Taj through the breaking fog as we entered and then to admire its glory under the shining sun. The guide and the driver (Mr Sharma) were also helpful with our mother. Will be happy to use their services again if needed. Thank you. We were a family of 3 without kids, but the selection below only provides teens or little kids. We did a mother and daughters trip.
overall, SAM travels were throughly professional(to the core),punctual and amazing. The driver picked us up at the Delhi hotel on time and accompanied us till our seat on Gaatiman Express. We were greeted by the amazing Tour Guide, who had PhD in Indian History. He gives us an amazing story/details about the monuments (Tajmahal and Agra Fort). He was truly exceptional, yet a very simple and humble human being. In addition to giving a thorough, Deep, yet concise overview of these two monuments, he knows the best places to take amazing photographs.SAM travels recommended a fantastic restaurant for lunch. We wrapped up the day and he dropped us at the train station/for cabin. After reaching Delhi, we were greeted by our friendly driver from morning, who dropped as back at a hotel. Overall, it was a very professional tour and I would highly-recommended it for anyone (locals/foreigeners/NRI Indians) visiting TajMahal/Agra. We were so impressed by their service, we hired their services on the spot-as we are planning for a day tour of New Delhi. Again, we had terrific tour guide and had amazing tour of Delhi. I THOUROUGHLY RECOMMEND SAM TOURS AND TRAVELS WITHOUT ANY RESERVATIONS. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.
I would like to appreciate my driver Munesh +91 96754 22926 first as we were in to a very bad situation due to heavy rain while returning, he was so patience and given first preference to safety. We were safely dropped to our home after the tour. He is the best driver I have ever seen with timing, politness and safest speed. Arrangements were perfect, we are accomodated with a guide to cover three monuments (Tajmahal, Agra fort and Baby Tajmahal) and we completely enjoyed the trip. My trip was organized by Bharath , special thanks to him for organizing this fantastic trip and he can speak English which was so helpful. Always ask for Munesh driver ji when you take this trip.
This was a great tour. The driver, Sanjeev, was great. He arrived on time. The tour guide, Nadeem, was very knowledgeable about the Taj Mahal and fort. I highly recommend you book this tour.
Taj Mahal's day experience. Looking at a customized tour at Agra while staying at Le Meridien New-Delhi full package was set-up on Feb.28th. Excellent reception at Agra railway station by Sam tour representative, Udit and Pappu. Then Shyam joint us as our guide for the day. Shyam gave us all the recommended advices before processing through Taj Mahal entrance. He gave us all the detailed information, was able to adapt to his customer interests, answered in a professional way our questions. Shyam is very friendly and open to discussion on various topic. He offered an extension to Agra Fort which wasn't in the program and we enjoyed so much his knowledge. My daughter shared with me this very positive comment and we would like to thank Shyam and colleagues for this unforgettable souvenir at Agra. Si vous voulez passer une journée parfaite, bien organisée et documentée, n'hésitez pas, choisissez l'équipe Udit, Shyam and Pappu. Ils sont justes parfaits dans leurs métiers et sympathiques
Used the services for one day tour of Agra from Delhi with private transfer and guide. Sunny was very responsive and helpful in planning and organising. Jeet was the driver and was right on time and no fuss about anything. He was very patient and professional and an expert driver. Will definitely recommend Sunny and Jeet.
My wife and I found ourselves with a day free in New Delhi after 10 days in Bhutan and booked a trip to the Taj at the last minute -- 6 pm or so the day before the tour. Our guide, Shyam Bir, and driver Ajay were terrific: Shyam very well informed and a good communicator, Ajay remarkable making this way through the extraordinary traffic of India. We have been fortunate to have been able to travel through-out the world, and this company was top notch, as good as any I have dealt with anywhere.
It was excellent experience with S.A.M. TOURS AND TRAVELS. and the co-ordination started from the first day until completion of the trip was excellent.special thanks to sunny mudgal. definitely recommend to friends.
I've done the Same Day Agra Tour, starting from Delhi. That was a fantastic day! The organization was very good, end to end. My guide, Pavan Kumar from Agra, was awesome! And the restaurant we ended the day with was very nice. I enjoyed it, and would recommend the same.
We booked this tour just a day before through SAM SAME DAY TOUR and it all worked perfectly. The people from the agency replied us very quickly and he also gave all the answers of our questions related same day Agra tour after a long conversation finally we confirmed this trip. The driver who picked up us from our Delhi residence was friendly and the car was really nice. We drove to Agra via Yamuna Expressway and when we arrived in Agra we met our guide and he was excellent at his work and having good knowledge of history. He also bought Tajmahal tickets in advance for us. We had a great time in Agra enjoyed a lot. We Would definitively recommend it to others.
