Excellent day trip to Agra by Train
I had an excellent day with my guide, Dhirendra with Crystal India Holidays. I was met at my hotel in Delhi and taken by private Taxi to the Hazrat Nizamuddin railway station where I took the Gatimaan Express to Agra. At each of the locations we were met by a local guide who was able to help navigate the tourist queues and in some cases skip the line. Dhirendra was kind and considerate and explained in detail about each of the monuments and their history. The highlight was the trip to the Taj Mahal and although it was busy, they there were ample opportunities for photography. We also visited Agra Fort and Baby Taj before having a buffet lunch at the Marriott Hotel. We had our own driver for the day who dropped off and picked up at the various location points and navigated to the traffic with expertise. Information including ticketing was sent to me via WhatsApp in advance of my day. We then took the train back to Delhi where a driver dropped me back at my hotel. A long and enjoyable day and one which I will remember.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your detailed experience and for choosing Crystal India Holidays. We are very glad to hear that you had such an enjoyable and well coordinated day trip to Agra. It is wonderful to know that Dhirendra took great care of you and that the local guides, smooth train connections, and our driver made the day comfortable and memorable. We are happy that you enjoyed the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and Baby Taj, and that you had ample time for photography despite the crowds. Thank you for mentioning the convenience of advance information and ticketing. We are grateful for your kind words and it means a lot to our entire team. We hope to welcome you again for more beautiful experiences in India. Best regards Amit Crystal India Holidays

Great tour. Recommended.
Fantastic day. It’s a huge one, longer than 12 hours, which counts as extra in India. But the drivers, guides and helpers made this trip seamless. Our guides knowledge was amazing, you’d miss so much by doing the trip alone. The day is bloody expensive. But, I reckon it’s worth it to do the Taj properly. My highlight was Agra Fort. I knew nothing about it prior.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that you had a fantastic day and found the tour seamless, thanks to our dedicated drivers, guides, and team. You're absolutely right — visiting a place like the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort with a knowledgeable guide makes a huge difference, and we’re glad you felt it was worth it. Agra Fort is indeed a hidden gem with so much fascinating history, and we’re delighted it turned out to be your highlight! Best regards, Amit Crystal India Holidays

Very disappointed
I booked, and paid for, this tour in September. It included round trip, 1st class train tickets, with meals. Ten hours before the start of our trip I was informed that the return train was overbooked so we would have to travel from Agra back to Delhi by car (with no meals). I was then informed that our departure train time had been changed from 8:50am to 6:00am (we were supposed to be picked up from our hotel at 6:30am). So we had to drive to and from Agra in a car (3 hours each way). When we got to Agra, the guide said that we had to pay for the tuk tuk (after I had already paid $300 for the tour). We had lunch at a Marriott and, while the food was delicious, it was definitely not a 5-star hotel (and it was very, very dirty). We were traveling with friends who are of Indian ethnicity and they said that they were embarrassed that a tour company would treat us this way. I’m hoping for a refund but will see.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment you experienced. This is certainly not the level of service we strive to provide, and I truly regret that your expectations were not met. The last-minute changes to the train schedule and the return journey by car should have been communicated more clearly and managed better. I fully understand how stressful this must have been, especially so close to the start of your tour. I am also very sorry for the confusion regarding the tuk tuk charges, as this should have been clearly included and explained in advance. Regarding the lunch arrangement, I regret that it did not meet your expectations, and I appreciate you bringing this to our notice. Your feedback is very important to us and helps us improve our services. As a gesture of goodwill, please note that we have already processed a partial refund to acknowledge the inconvenience caused. We are also reviewing the matter internally to ensure such situations do not occur again. Once again, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding. Best regards, Amit

Best visit to Agra
We had a wonderful experience today with our tour! They were very punctual to pick us up and drive us to the train station. Our driver, Pappu, also took some time to show us the highlights in Delhi before our train. He made sure we were on the right carriage. In our way to Delhi, we were served some snacks and food. Unlucky, our train was 40 min delayed but this was due to Diwali. On our arrival, Manood was waiting for us with a garland. That was a very nice greeting from them! He was very nice, explaining and answering all of our questions. He guided us around Taj Mahal and giving us great information and details about the building. It is incredible and something everyone should visit at least once in a lifetime. Later we went for food. They had special Diwali treats. There were many food options, indian varieties. We continued our visit to the gardens, and we could have a unique view from Taj Mahal. After that, we visited baby Taj. It is more impressive that what you see on pictures. You can have a detailed view of the stone works, which I think are unique like Taj Mahal. We finished our visit with Agra Fort. I think you can easily spend the day there. So many stories and such a unique building that is worth visiting. After this, we were back to our train and picked up in Delhi by our taxi driver from morning. I would totally recommend this tour, from Amit, Pappu and Manood. They are taking care of you and adjusting to your preference. Truly dedicated! We would definitely repeat this tour or others they offer. Thank you!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely and detailed feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful experience and that everything—from the punctual pickup to the insightful guiding—made your day special. We're glad Pappu could show you some Delhi highlights and ensure a smooth start to your journey. Despite the Diwali-related train delay, it's great to know that Manood’s warm welcome and guiding made up for it. It sounds like you truly immersed yourself in the beauty of the Taj Mahal, Baby Taj, and Agra Fort — and we couldn’t agree more that they’re places everyone should see at least once in a lifetime. Thank you again for your kind words and for recommending us. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you again on another journey soon! Best regards, Amit Crystal India Holidays

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.
How much does From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort cost?
+
Prices start at $1721 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New Delhi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort take?
+
Plan for about 12 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New Delhi is not rushed.
Is From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in New Delhi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New Delhi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New Delhi and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Delhi: All-Inclusive Taj Mahal Tour by Train with Escort start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New Delhi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New Delhi?
+
On Outty we rank every New Delhi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Taj Mahal & Agra Private Tour By AC Car From Delhi with 5* Meal, Taj Mahal & Agra Fort Private Day Trip From Delhi with 5* Lunch, Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Baby Taj Day Tour from Delhi by Car. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New Delhi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New Delhi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
