I booked a private tour with Nasiba Radjabova. My flight arrived at the Delhi airport on Friday at 23:00 in the evening. I was immediately picked up by an extremely friendly and professional taxi driver KP Sing and we went to Agra. Nasiba called immediately the driver and we spoke with her. She want to be sure, that everything is fine. Unbelievable service! I booked the hotel in Agra and stayed there for a night (it was a recommendation of Nasiba! And it was great!). Next morning I was picked up at 07:00 by Nasiba personally! She is the greatest person I have ever seen. Very friendly, her knowledge about the Taj Mahal, Agra is unbelievable great and deep. She speaks several languages fluently (Russian with me). Everybody from the personal working at the Taj Mahal knows her and she likes her tourists! My dream was to see Taj Mahal with Nasiba and it went true! After sightseeing we went to shops (on my request, Nasiba helped me to buy presents for my family) and a restaurant. It was all the best! The meal in the restaurant was delicious! After this the driver went with me to the Delhi airport back (my flight was at 20:00). All was great organized, unbelievable service! Thank you very much for Nasiba Radjabova!alexandra_lub

It was our first time in Agra and we wanted to have a guide to show us around Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. Nasiba was a perfect choice since she speaks Russian, English&Hindi, so we didn't have problems with anything. She is a very experienced guide who knows a lot of interesting facts that other guides might not know. However, there is one thing that I think Nasiba could change to become a perfect guide - make her narration more structured. Honestly, there were moments when I got lost in historical figures, their relation degree and so on.Sherwin R

I was able to book my private Agra tour from New Delhi 2 hours before the tour. Delhi Routes arranged my itinerary including the New Delhi day tour the following morning. My driver arrived early and waited patiently as I ate breakfast and prepared for the tour. The drive from New Delhi was smooth and a treat by itself as the countryside scenery was very engaging. Travel time was about 4 hours and arrived at Agra around 1 PM where we met my tour guide Nasiba. She is gorgeous and intelligible with the history of India, the Taj Mahal, and the Red Fort. She breezed me through the crowd of Indian tourists and was very pleased, as I didn't have to wait in line. I really enjoyed the private tour with Nasiba, Taj Mahal was breathtaking, there's so much history to digest in one day. Thanks to Nasiba for making my India tour a blast!

The first part of my trip I booked through indus excursion I asked them for a tour guide for the 2 days I would be in Agra. They sent Nasiba. What a wonderful surprise. 8 a.m. first morning she was cheerfully waiting in the lobby for us, she took us on an adventure sightseeing and explain the historical significance of the Forts and palaces she was showing us. She was so knowledgeable about little details. Naseebo asked us what we were interested in seeing and then took us there. We were treated with the utmost respect and friendliness. We enjoyed her company so much we invited her to join us for lunches. She was very personal and funny. She asked us about our families and our life back in America and then talked a little bit about her life in India. We enjoyed conversation with her so much. She got us back to our hotel at 8 p.m. and then told us to make sure we are ready at 8 a.m. the next morning for another adventure at the Taj Mahal. 8 a.m. sharp she was in the lobby waiting for us, bright cheerful and full of energy. I am so glad she was our tour guide in the Taj Mahal and Agra fort, we would not have understood anything or even knew the background history if not for Nasiba. After a long day walking through the fort and the Taj she took us into the town. She listened to our interest and our desires and then took us to the Quality shops and sites to help satisfy our shopping needs. In the evening she even took us to a private music store where two musicians were playing a sitar and drums . We were dancing to their music along with others that had come into the store and then the owner surprised us with mint tea. . After a fun day and evening with Nasiba she delivered us back to our hotel around 8 p.m. . We were so pleased with her as our tour guide and now she is my friend on social media. If you want to enjoy yourself and have a fulfilling time in Agra and Deli, I suggest you reserve Nasiba.marioflores16
