    You can truly feel Magic Carpet Tours and Mehraj want to show you nothing but the best about their places and culture! Whether you're a local or foreign tourist, they're about the only ones who put themselves in your shoes, try to understand you and make sure you have the trip of a lifetime! They've have always carefully planned and executed everything! An absolute bliss and amazing experience you can't get elsewhere. It doesn't matter whether that's just a simple tour or a whole package, just let them know what you would like, they'll advice you but you're their guest and treat you as one! All the drivers and guides I met have were knowledgeable, charismatic, polite, caring! They'll go out of their way to look after you in many little ways and make sure you're comfortable and happy! The tiny details, the attitude, everything counts! They know so many curious things about every place, all the history and they know every picture spot/angle and even the best timings! The experience shows! You won't face the usual struggles of dealing with sketchy people just handing you over to strangers, pushing to do things you don't like or trying to sell you things you don't want! No shenanigans as they say, which is amazing in a place like India. They're amazing humans and the best India has to offer! It always felt like I was traveling with my best close friends!

    The tour organized by Mehraj and his team was truly outstanding—a journey full of unforgettable moments and meaningful experiences. Here’s my review, broken down by segments: Personalised Itinerary: What stood out immediately was the way the itinerary was crafted around our specific interests, rather than being a generic schedule. There was no sense of being hurried; every site and monument was given time to be savoured, making the experience uniquely tailored and relaxed. Expertise and Service: Mehraj is not just any professional—he’s the kind of guide you end up calling a friend. His depth of knowledge about history, anecdotes about key events and links between significant personalities brought each location vividly to life. The “shayaris” he shared were a delightful highlight, adding poetry and personal flair to each monument visit. Travel Experience: Travel arrangements were customized to our preferences, making each journey as comfortable as possible. If you have the opportunity, do ask for Mr. Lukman Khan—an exceptional driver whose insights into historical and political matters made our drives as engaging as the destinations themselves. Final Thoughts: Put your trust in Magic Carpet and Mehraj without hesitation. If you value quality experiences over bargain deals and want a tour filled with personal touches and cultural richness, this team is the ideal choice. P.S: There was a wheelchair member with us who was occupied at every monument as much as anyone else !
