Fabulous tour guide in Agra - My wife and I had the opportunity to visit Agra with two half-day tours led by Asif. This was the beginning of a larger tour of Rajasthan. Asif a lovely gentleman, steeped in the local history and full of colorful stories. He met us at our hotel and took us to a local restaurant for a quick bite before our tour of Agra Fort - an immense palace (a mini city) which was one of the many contributions of the Moghul empire. This was followed the next day by a sunrise tour of the Taj Mahal - an absolutely stunning architectural structure with an amazing back-story. Asif is extraordinarily knowledgeable of Rajasthani history. He’s also quite insightful about current affairs in the context of the arc of history. He really helped us appreciate these magnificent places from the perspective of a local historian. My wife and I have toured many places with guides. Asif is among the very best.

Spectacular sights, insightful and calm guide - The morning itself was magical (check out my pic). Asif, our guide was patient and incredibly insightful managing a relatively large group and his English was superb. I highly recommend Asif as a guide. His calm strength was also evidenced when he went out of his way to help our group find the right train back to Jaipur when we lost our original one. Thank you so much for an awesome morning Asif and your sincerity.
