5.00We completed the tour of Agra with Farid which was a fantastic day out. His knowledge of the tai and the red fort was exceptional. His English is perfect and is also a great host. The tour started with cancelled train from Delhi to Agra but with driver Sandeep making up the time on the expressway from Delhi it didn’t affect the tour.
A day in Agra.
