    An excellent service at a very reasonable price

    Just returned from a phenomenal tour of the Taj Mahal with Aamil Khan, our personal guide from Majestic Taj Tours. Everything was taken at a leisurely pace & Aamin exhibited an excellent knowledge of the history of this beautiful & iconic structure. From the timely pickup at our hotel, to our safe return at the end of the tour, everything went very smoothly & stress free. Would happily recommend this tour to anyone intending to visit Agra

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you had an amazing experience with Majestic Taj Tours. Our team is dedicated to ensuring each tour is memorable, and we’re glad we could meet your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back for another adventure soon!”

    Exceptional service

    Our guide name was Aamir Khan, He was super friendly and polite. We also had our own private chauffeur. Everything from pickup to drop off was wonderful. They were both AAA+. The tour was really good, they made sure we were well hydrated on a really hot day. Aamir was really knowledgeable and spoke not just Hindi and English but also Spanish which was quite convenient for us. After the tour they took us to a 5 star restaurant, I had one of the best food ever. If you come to Delhi and you want to go to visit Taj Mahal this definitely a must. I would not imagine doing this trip without my guides. Highly recommended.

    Response from the operator: Hello Sir/Mam, Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear that our team provided excellent service and made your visit to the Taj Mahal memorable. We appreciate your feedback and hope to have the pleasure of serving you again in the future. Thank you Regards Team MTT

    A Dream Tour Company with real passion

    My wife and I toured with Majestic Taj Tours to Agra for the whole day to see Taj Mahal and Red Fort. From start to finish our experience was excellent. Communications with the manager via What's App gave us peace of mind. The guide Rashid Ahmed was a very astute and informed person with a passion for his job and presenting in such a way that told a story from start to finish. Magical. The crowds were of no concern as we moved past these through priority access points. Rashid made sure we were happy and felt comfortable the whole time. Would highly recommend.

    Response from the operator: Hello Sir, It was a pleasure to serve you and we thank you for your kind words of appreciation which means a lot to us. Feedbacks are very important part of tourism industry and it will not only helps us but also help a lot of travelers as to "Why choose us". Hope to see you soon on your next trip to India with MTT. Thank you Regards Team MTT

    Excellent quality, fulfilling experience in Agra

    Had a wonderful experience in Taj Mahal and the rest of Agra with Majestic Tours and Mr Nadim Khan. The guide is knowledgeable, attentive to any request and kind, has got a lot to tell not only about history and architecture but many other things, humble and pleasant to talk to. He's also an amazing photographer, knows all the right spots and angles. Majestic tours responds quickly, polite and pleasant to deal with, definitely recommend.

    Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New Delhi.

    How much does Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food cost?

    +

    Prices start at $25 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 Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 11 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 Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food?

    +

    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 Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food?

    +

    Around 4 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Secret Old Agra: Heritage Walk, Cycle Rickshaw Ride & Street Food 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 Fort Private Day Trip From Delhi with 5* Lunch, 5 Nights 6 Days Private Golden Triangle Tour - Delhi Agra Jaipur, Old & New Delhi Private City Tour – Traveler’s Choice (Top Rated). 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.
