Booking the 2 Days Agra Fatehpur Sikri Tour from Mathura Vrindavan Tourism was the best decision we made for a short getaway! We were able to visit all the main sites without feeling rushed. The highlight for us was Fatehpur Sikri—an architectural masterpiece that is often overshadowed by the Taj Mahal. Our guide made the entire experience so engaging with his storytelling. The team was very responsive and made sure all our needs were taken care of. It was a perfect blend of history, culture, and comfort

I recently took the 2 Days Agra Fatehpur Sikri Tour, and it was an incredible experience. Mathura Vrindavan Tourism planned everything so well. The Taj Mahal was, of course, the highlight, but Fatehpur Sikri stole the show with its majestic architecture. The guide was patient and answered all our questions, and our driver ensured we traveled comfortably. The hotel was cozy and well-located. It was the perfect short trip to unwind and learn more about India’s rich history. Highly recommended for couples and families alike

Our 2 Days Agra Fatehpur Sikri Tour was memorable, thanks to Mathura Vrindavan Tourism! We were greeted warmly upon arrival and whisked away to the Taj Mahal early in the morning. Our guide knew exactly where to take the best pictures and even shared some less-known facts about the monument. Fatehpur Sikri was the perfect addition—it was like walking through history. The attention to detail by the agency, from comfortable transport to a friendly driver, made this trip one of the best we’ve ever had. Worth every penny

Overall, it was a decent experience, but not without some hiccups. The Taj Mahal was as beautiful as expected, and the guide was knowledgeable. However, there was some confusion with the pick-up timings, which led to a delay. Also, we faced a bit of a rush at Fatehpur Sikri, and couldn’t explore the site fully. I think the agency can improve communication and time management. The trip was okay, but I had higher expectations considering their reviews

Just came back from the 2 Days Agra Fatehpur Sikri Tour, and I have to say, Mathura Vrindavan Tourism did a fantastic job! Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Agra. He showed us around the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort, making sure we didn’t miss any hidden gems. Fatehpur Sikri was a beautiful addition to the trip—walking through the royal courtyards was like stepping back in time. Everything was seamless, and I’m planning my next trip with them soon
