- RelWill00Amazing memories were made!This tour was a great way to see the Golden Triangle when you only have a few days. You just sit back in your air-conditioned car and everything is planned to perfection for you. Everything about this tour was top notch. We stayed in 5 star hotels which were very good and I am missing the delicious food! The best thing however was the people. Our driver Ravinder handled that crazy traffic effortlessly. His car was spotlessly clean and he was always at the entrance to pick us up with the aircon blasting 😀 It was very hot and humid during our stay so we really appreciated that. Our three guides were also all amazing! In Delhi it was Nitin, a uni student with a passion and great knowledge of history. For Agra our guide was Rashid. He is an amazing photographer! He took my phone and took the most amazing photos of the Taj Mahal and other Agra sights. Finally, in Jaipur we had Manoj who was also so knowledgeable. All our guides spoke English well and were passionate about their cities and country. They made this tour so good!
- isabel61800Highly recommended tour and company.The tour was superb and enjoyable. Mr. Amit was very accommodating and available to discuss options that you want to explore. They embody the Indian maxim that the guest is god. We felt very safe, and everything went on smoothly, from the driver (Mr. Rajinder) of the car who took us from Delhi , Agra and Jaipur, to the accomodations arranged by the Company, the passionate and knowledgeable guides (Ronit and Kumawa), the restaurants that served very good and clean food. We will definitely book this company again for future visits to India.
- 523mishad00Wonderful experienceAgra is a beautiful place to visit. The Tak Mahal is more majestic that you would think and our tour guide Af was knowledgeable in its history and facts. He was able to shed light on the great monument. The baby Taj was very detailed and some amazing artwork. Our driver Rajesh was accommodating and a safe driver. Definitely recommend seeing this and with Arif as the tour guide. Even though the day was long, the experience was fantastic along with a great lunch.
- boofright00Highly RecommendedWe took a two day one night tour of Agra & Jaipur with Crystal India Holidays. From the outset every aspect of the tour with this company has been stunning… Our driver, Surinder, has a terrific knowledge of the road network and safely navigated us throughout, not an easy task you’ll appreciate if you ever visit a city in India. Despite what we might view as chaotic, with Surinder we felt perfectly safe and he also gave us insight on poi’s & culture when travelling between city’s Day 1 Tour of Agra with Mannish as our guide was fantastic with every need catered for, nothing was too much trouble and we received VIP treatment wherever we went. Day 2 Guide in Jaipur was Sunny, again, encyclopaedic knowledge of this city and its tourist attractions was a delight to receive, and with great humour( everything’s funny with Sunny) If you plan to visit any sights in India then a guide is a must….and when choosing a company or guide I can’t recommend Crystal India Holidays enough, it’s a minefield choosing who to go with but you’ll not be disappointed with these guys.
- Road3346128216300Absolutely brilliantWow what a fantastic trip From the very start we were well informed about our pick up. Surinder our driver navigated the very busy roads, the car was clean and he always made sure we had cool water. In Agra we met our guide Manish he was very knowledgeable about everything we visited in Agra. In Jaipur we met our guide sunny who was also very knowledgeable about everywhere we visited Surinder, Manish and sunny made our golden triangle trip unforgettable, all three of you made sure we were treated like vips. I cannot recommend this tour enough Thank you 🙏
- HSH3300Wonderful 2-Day Tour To See All The Famous MonumentsI booked this tour a month before my trip for $300 USD without hotels or meals and with monument entrances to Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, Itmad-ud-Daula, Amber Palace, City Palace of Jaipur, and Jantar Mantar Jaipur. I was picked up at my hotel in central New Delhi at 8:00 (September 2023) in a nice, well-kept, air-conditioned, and spacious car. The driver drove me safely to Agra where I met my guide, Sanjay. Immediately, there was a bit of confusion, as both the driver and guide told me I had to pay for all monument entrance fees. Luckily, I had kept screenshots from when I booked, where it clearly stated that the ticket prices were included. This seems to have been changed since then to now be explicitly excluded. After a few calls to the operator, they sorted it out and I did not have to pay any additional ticket prices. Throughout the day, my guide gave me helpful information, was kind, and helped me take plenty of good pictures. The first stop was at the Taj Mahal, 11:20. We then headed to Agra Fort, 12:50. The driver then started driving towards Jaipur, and only after I enquired, told me they were about to skip Itmad-ud-Daula, because “it’s quite small”. Fortunately, I did not have to say much, and we turned around and visited the “Baby Taj”, 13:50. About half an hour later, the Agra guide was dropped off and we headed towards Jaipur. On the way, we stopped briefly at a road-side restaurant, though I skipped lunch, opting to wait for dinner at the nice hotel I had booked. I am glad to say that there was no problem at all with booking my own hotel in Jaipur, and the driver dropped me off at the Devi Ratn at 18:45. Another positive note was the possibility to opt out of any shop or factory tour beforehand, as asked by the operator via WhatsApp the day before. I did so, and this was well-respected by both guides, who also helped defend me from any road-side sellers and such. The next day, I was picked up at the Jaipur hotel at 8:00, met up with my guide Kumar, saw the Hawa Mahal at 8:45, and arrived at the Amber Fort at 9:00. I opted for the 1100 INR extra elephant ride (with no pressure at all, in fact, the guide’s main suggestion was to take the car up to the fort). It was a nice experience, which I would also recommend to others. After the fort, we saw the stepwell, drove by the Water Palace 11:05, and finally entered the City Palace at 11:20 and the Jantar Mantar observatory at 12:00. I then said goodbye to my Jaipur guide, who had also been extremely kind, informative, and helpful, taking many great pictures for me, and we drove back to Delhi. I had brought a lunch pack, so we skipped the usual lunch break and arrived at my Delhi airport hotel 18:20. The pre-tour instructions give a suggestion for a fully optional “standard” tip of 500 INR to the guides and 1500 INR to the driver, which I found to be quite reasonable. The guides and driver really were exceptionally good and exceeded my expectations, and they fully deserve 5 stars. All in all, I was very satisfied with the tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Delhi.
- asharoktad00Very pleasantIt was a great experience. Jaipur is a very beautiful city. Driver was so kind as well as the tour guide nice. Definitely the best trip while in India
- hanamizi00Amazing experienceThe tour was amazing. He explained all the history and our questions. Also our lovely driver, Rakesh, he made our trip to Agura very special!! Thank you so much:)
- jowwul00UnforgettableFirst time in India, an unforgettable experience! Amazing tour and excellent value for money. The guides in each city were extremely welcoming, friendly and informative. A special thank you to our driver Sharwan, a lovely and friendly individual who navigated the somewhat chaotic roads of India safely and with great humour. I highly recommend this trip for anyone visiting India for the first time.
- vaishnavig201400Best way to explore the golden triangle!I can’t recommend this experience enough! One of the best ways to explore the golden triangle especially if you’re new to the area. My family doesn’t know Hindi and we were a little hesitant to go visit Agra and New Delhi before this. But with the driver’s and the guides’ expertise, all we had to do was be wowed by the amazing places and look pretty in pictures! Of course we learned a lot about every place we visited as well. I have 2 young girls and they took care of them as though they were their own! We were very well taken care of, not to mention top notch accommodation and food options! Not a single bad thing to say about this experience!
- mariaaalocaaa00Amazing IndiaThis tour was well organized. The company contacted me days before our arrival due to changes of the tour as there will be a G20 summit event. Tour guides were knowledgeable and accommodating.Our driver Monu for the whole three days is very kind, neat, punctual, offered to take us to another historical place when we were on our way to agra from jaipur. We refused as we were really tired and we want to reach the hotel early to rest. For the tour you get to know how jewels are polished and shaped how the locals in jaipur made their printed fabrics by hand and in agra how the marvelous intricate details of taj mahal is being made. Overall a highly recommended tour. Worth your bucks!
- 801chelsis00Great time in Agra!My driver and guide were amazing! I had a really good time going to the Taj Mahal, Baby Taj and Agra Fort. I learned a lot!
- darac61100Rich culture and history, unexpected experienceGolden triangle tour was very educational knowing the history and the culture of old India. We did not get the overnight tour to Agra and Jaipur. We got a customized day tour with back-to-Delhi daily transport care of our hotel manager's itinerary. India is rich in history and culture. The structures - Taj Mahal and forts of Delhi and Jaipur are amazing with equally amazing stories to tell. Only thing we are bothered are the endless noise from the vehicles' horns and locals trying to pry on tourists. The Indian way of driving in the roads and motorway drove us nuts! You really have to brace yourselves all throughout the drive to Agra especially Jaipur. Our tour guides so far are somehow fluent in English which made it easier for us to understand the stories behind the structures.
- navdipd202300BrilliantBrilliant day out, very well organised, driver and guide were both brilliant. Friendly and included our 9 year old in conversations. Lovely day out.
- Jonathan5600300Summer vacation in IndiaIt was a very enjoyable tour that spanned over 5 days in Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur. The driver (Annu Kapoor) was very kind and nice, always on-time, clean and air-conditioned car, and water bottles were always available. Our guides (Naresh, Rashid, and Sunil) in the three cities were also very knowledgeable and professional. The hotels we got to stay in were great and very comfortable. Overall, it was a wonderful way to experience a little bit of India.

We (mid twenties English couple) wanted to visit some iconic cities and landmarks in India and weren't too sure where to book, but booking this was a great decision. We booked the four day tour with 5* hotels.
The booking was very little hassle and everything was coordinated by Amit, who arranged for our hotel pick up next to Delhi airport. Our driver, Mr Bhupinder, was such a lovely man and really made us welcome as we drove around the madness of the Indian roads! They provide a little pack with what to expect over the coming days, which is super helpful.
Each city you visit has a private guide who is entertaining, knowledgeable and speaks very good English. The driver will drop you off and pick you up everywhere you go so there is never a need for additional travel arrangements. Note that all lunches and dinners will need to be paid for youself, but breakfast will be provided in each hotel. Also note there is an expectation to tip each guide and the driver (guide of 500 INR for guide and 2000 INR for the driver, which on balance is very reasonable, but just something to be aware of.
In each city was saw various temples, landmarks and areas of interest. There are too many to review here but the Taj Mahal was a particular highlight, absolutely breath taking.
One thing to note is that whilst seeing the shops that make the pottery in Agra and carpets in Jaipur are cool, the staff there are going to give you a hard sell. I would recommend being firm with them or avoiding these if you will be uncomfortable. However, we didn't mind it too much and bought something in one and declined in the second.
We would really recommend getting the 5* hotels option too, as staying in the Jaypee Palace was one of the highlights of the holiday.
Overall, cant reccomend it enough!

TLDR:
Highlights: Qutub Minar, Sikh temple, Agra Fort, Taj Mahal, Amber Fort, Panna Meena step well, countryside drive, safety, great guides and drivers.
Lowlights: closed Lotus temple bc of poor timing, lunch on the road
From start to finish this tour was well organized with a fantastic driver (ask if Mr. Ram Singh is available) and knowledgeable, clear guides throughout. We wanted a few changes made here and there the driver and the guides were happy to do so. For example, the Lotus Temple is actually closed in Delhi at certain times (this was the only poor planning), and it was closed when we arrived. We asked to do something else instead and went to a Sikh temple which was amazing! I do wish Red Fort in Delhi was on the agenda, but friends of ours had said to avoid Old Delhi during the time we were there (riots).
We felt safe and well taken care of during our journey with a comfortable, nice air conditioned car and plenty of water. The driver and guides really cared about our experience and helped us out if there was anything we needed. The tour guide in Agra was like a professional photographer and historian all in one, amazing! The guides were good about warning us about scams and other uncomfortable situations we, as tourists might find ourselves in.
You should consider booking your own hotels as it can be more affordable. On our journey, there were a few times we needed to stop for lunch. The restaurants we were taken to in Delhi (can't remember the name) and Jaipur (The Grand Peacock) were great but the one on the road to Jaipur was pretty overpriced and not very good. Have an idea of your journey route and tell the driver where to take you to eat via Google Maps, Zomato, etc- they are on your time and can take you anywhere along the way!
Lastly, Amit, our tour manager with the company, was super responsive both before the trip and during the trip. For the great price and value and an overall fantastic time,I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting a taste of all three cities in a quick time.

My friend and I booked this tour as a treat for the end of our month long trip to India.
It exceeded our expectations!
Our driver Raj was very accommodating and made sure we were comfortable and safe.
Our tour guides in each city were kind and knowledgeable. It’s good to note that in each place you will be taken to shops that show demonstrations of local artisans; the demos are very interesting but everything is extremely overpriced. If you can’t resist a hard sell ask to skip these “shopping” places.
Our guide Asish in Agra was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed spending the day with him.
It was very busy at the Taj and I recommend prearranging an earlier pick up if you want to be one of the first in line and in through the gate.
We booked the 5 star hotel option and it was amazing service and accommodations!
I would recommend this tour to my friends and family and possibly take it again under the right circumstances!
Thank you Amit for your prompt communication and attention to detail!

When researching which tour operator to go with we based our decision on Trip advisor reviews, but were apprehensive, however we could not have picked better. Starting with the ease of booking and immediate contact with Amit, our tour liaison who remained in contact throughout our tour and was incredibly helpful in rearranging our accommodation when a presidential visit threatened to interrupt our plans. Our driver was polite, attentive and saw that every request we made was fulfilled. The local guides were knowledgable, friendly using there experience to enhance our enjoyment at each site visited. I would recommend Golden Triangle tours to anyone and have been encouraging our fellow guests at the hotel to get in touch. I cannot thank Amit and his team enough for an absolutely incredible tour and we will be using them again. Thank you.

I also booked this tour due to the fantastic reviews on this site and so pleased I did.
Manish took care of my booking and payment and everything went smoothly from start to finish.
We were meet at the airport by our driver Stya (relying on my daughter for correct names and spelling). Our driver was so good and kept us safe at all times. It takes real skill and patience to drive in India and our driver was amazing, always punctual and happy to see us.
A huge shout out to Ajmal our guide whilst in Agra. Ajmal knew everything about the Taj Mahal and looked after us so well and took the most amazing photographs which are priceless.
Manoj was our guide in Jaipur and another fantastic guide. I could not imagine visiting India without a guide and driver as India is full on in so many ways. This tour took the worry out of everything. Embrace India for what it has to offer, yes their is things that we are not use to in our cultural but if you visit open minded then you will enjoy the experience, we met some lovely people.
We chose to stay in five star hotels and so pleased we did, so worth the extra money as you need a good nights sleep after the driving and visiting different places. The Hilton in Jaipur was my our favourite.
Tipping is a way of life and expected so always have local currency on hand (biggest tip) I can offer, from the locals in the toilets (have tissues on hand), the driver and guides all deserve a nice tip as they work very hard and some away from families months at a time to earn a living.
Thankyou for the memories and making our trip an enjoyable one.

Want to see Taj Mahal and afraid because alone, decided to take this tour who offer several services likely pick up at the airport and private driver taking care of driving in India which is not easy for europeans, traffic is crazy and is very dangerous.
As I said I was alone and I had for four days a different tour guide in every city visited, driver was the one pick me up at Delhi airport and drive me back to Delhi airport at the end of four days tours.
Everything was organized by the this company and find out that it was as expected, wonderful resorts 5 stars for overnights, visited everything I want to see, tour guide where extremely friendly and very accommodating, driver is a very good driver taking care of my security at all times...... I believe they can arrange private tours for number majors than one, trust them they’re serious and maintaining what is written in the tour’s description.
Love it and everything will remaining in my memories one of the most positive experience ever had in my life.
Thank you and God bless you. Wishing you a big success you deserved.

Having experienced travelling around other countries independently we considered planning our own trip. However, after some research we decided to book the 4 day tour so we could get the most of each city. This was the best decision we could have made. India can be quite a chaotic place and having such incredible guides and driver made the trip enjoyable and stressless. Amit was in contact through email and Whatsapp before the tour started and gave extremely helpful information before and during the tour including costs, tipping and a detailed breakdown of the trip (which we could alter if we wanted too). We were picked up by our driver My Jarnail on the first day in Delhi at 8am and visited the first few attractions with our guide Nitin who was informative and genuinely had a passion for his city. In Agra we had Ashok who was an amazing guide. He prioritised getting incredible photos for us in front of the Taj Mahal and gave an easy to understand history of all the main sites. We were so thankful to have had such an awesome guide and had the best time in Agra. In Jaipur, Sanjay showed us around and gave us lots of information on the history of Jaipur and answered all our questions promptly. He was understanding and really helped us grasp a lot of the finer details around culture, religion and general history. Mr Jarnail, our driver was always ready to pick us up with cold drinks and made us feel so welcome. We are so thankful to have had such an amazing tour and would definitely use the same company again.

There is certainly room for improvement on this tour and although I did enjoy the experience I don’t think it was worth the price for a solo traveler. It would’ve been helpful to know the following before booking the tour: 1) there would be a different guide for each city, 2) there would be a good number of costs for all of the site entrance fees - I was never told to bring X amount of cash with me, 3) some of the hotel locations wouldn’t be ideal for you to explore the city because it was outside the city center and/or unsafe, and 4) the travel time between each of the cities - as most of the trip is spent driving.
It was certainly helpful to have friendly, local guides accompanying you to the main attractions but it wasn’t worth the price. You had to tip all 3 guides and the driver, pay for entrance fees and some lunch / dinners. Therefore, this price was pretty steep for a solo traveler. I appreciated getting to see some of the handmade crafts in the city but also found these shops to peer pressure you into a making a purchase and this really put a damper on these aspects of the tour.

We are glad to know that you enjoyed the experience and found guides friendly.
I would like to clear the points you have mentioned,
1) There will be local guides in each city, we don't hire one single guide for whole tour, because local guides provide more information and they could explain more about their local culture and their city, In India Every city has it's own unique culture.
2) It's mentioned in Exclusions that Entrance tickets will cost Approximately USD 60 per person in total for all monuments.
3) We use these hotels, Agra City: Hotel Jaypee Palace, Hotel DoubleTree by Hilton or Courtyard by Marriott. Jaipur City: Hilton or Radisson Jaipur City center or Holiday Inn City center, these hotes are located in cities and very safe, as security at these hotels is as per 5 star hotel standards.
4) Yes, there is travel time between these cities, Delhi to Agra it's Expressway, Agra to Jaipur it's Highway, Jaipur to Delhi it's newly built Expressway.
As mentioned in Exclusion details, Gratuities (Optional), So Tipping drivers and guides are not necessary, it's options, if you like services of them then you may give them Tip otherwise not, they are well paid.
Also, as we mentioned in travel tips, you may skip or add any monument, shopping place, local bazaar in the itinerary, you may let us know in advance or you may inform your guide about the same, we do it as per our customer's advise, there is no pressure to visit any places.
We hope to welcome you again in the future.
Best regards,
Team Golden Triangle Delhi Agra Jaipur Tour / Crystal India Holidays.

The driver for the 4 day tour was skillful and he needed to be given the vibrant traffic in the areas. The local guides were perfect in each of the locations. I will take other family members on this tour, it was great value and a great time.

We were two American women wanting to tour the golden triangle and simply googled tours and found this one due to the good reviews. Amit opened a communication line very quickly after I booked our 4 day tour. He was available anytime for questions or concerns. He let us add a half day tour on our last day graciously. Our driver was absolutely incredible. Very kind, accommodating and thoughtful. Thank you for all of your stellar driving Krishan! I don’t know how you navigated all of that craziness!
Our guides in each location were phenomenal as well. They were knowledgeable, respectful and always went above and beyond in ways like opening car doors, walking on the side with cars and ensuring all of our needs were met. Our Agra guide knew all the best spots for pictures and the sunrise was 100% the only way to go crowd wise. They all spoke 3+ languages, very impressive. We stopped at authentic but clearly tourist locations for lunch. The Indian food was able to be tailored spice wise which we appreciated. All was delicious.
We stayed at the Jaypee Palace in Agra and Hilton Jaipur. Jaypee is a little meh, it has construction (October 2022 they’re upgrading rooms) and it is very loud due due to weddings they hold. Our room was literally shaking with the base and the happy guests attending the weddings are quite loud, but I don’t blame them. It’s a wedding! Not anything related to the tour company though, so if you are wanting to get a good rest, maybe request a different hotel. Breakfast was the best part!
Hilton in Jaipur was very nice. Breakfast is not as good as Jaypee but still gets the job done!
We stopped at the Inlaid tile/marble place in Agra where they had a great educational piece and we didn’t feel pushed to purchase anything. They were sweet people.
We also stopped at the gemstone place (Jaipur Exports Jewelry) in Jaipur and they push HARD for sales if you show any slight interest. The guy we had could have led a class on high pressure sales tactics. I was able to negotiate to about 50% of listed price. They let us skip the carpet place, no problem!
Overall, we felt extremely safe and accommodated. I would use this company again and recommend to family and friends. Amit, our driver Krishan and all the guides were lovely people, and I am very thankful for their customer service regarding this trip!

Hello, I would like to book this "Four-Day Private Luxury Golden Triangle Tour to Agra and Jaipur From New Delhi" from January 17, 2022 for 4 adults. Is it possible to start this private tour on January 17, by seeing Delhi attractions with 3 adults, then staying on at Delhi for the Jan 17 night and leaving for Agra on Jan 18 with 4 adults. This will not include the Taj Mahal view during sunrise, but during the day time. No need to have a night stay at Agra. We can drive straight from Taj Mahal to Jaipur. So, instead of the cost of1-night Agra hotel, it can be replaced by a Delhi hotel. If this is acceptable, then what will the total cost be? Thanks for your time on this. Looking forward to your response in this matter before we book our trip. Thanks again.

Hi, it's possible. You may contact us to know the details accordingly.
Hi, are you able to customize the trip so we can do Varanasi as well?
We would like to do Varanasi, Jaipur, Agra and Delhi over 6 days. Do you have the names of 5 star hotels included in your package?

Hello, if we pick option without hotel and book our own lodging. Is there a specific/general area we need to book the hotel in each city?

Go ahead and decide what hotels you want to stay at. They should all be in the city and not in the countryside. Then call the tour company and confirm they can accommodate.

Hi, I am a little confused. Are the hotel stays included in this price or are we paying separately and choosing which hotel to stay in (and pay for it as well)?
Amit Narang

There are multiple options available in this tour. Tour with 5 Star Hotels, Tour with 4 Star Hotels, Tour without Accommodation, so if you would like to book hotels by your self than you may book option: our without Accommodation.
