This was our first time booking a trip with Mathura Vrindavan Tourism, and they exceeded our expectations. The 2-day tour covered everything we wanted to see — from the holy Govardhan Hill to the charming Barsana and finally, the iconic Taj Mahal. The driver was courteous and punctual, and the hotels were clean and comfortable. Special thanks to our guide, who kept us engaged with interesting facts and made sure we had plenty of time at each stop. I would definitely book with them again

I’m really happy with the way our 2-day Govardhan Barsana & Agra tour was managed. The team at Mathura Vrindavan Tourism took care of everything, from transportation to temple darshans. The guide was very patient and explained the stories behind each temple beautifully. Ending the trip with a visit to the Taj Mahal was like a cherry on top! This tour is perfect for those looking to experience spirituality and history in a short span of time. Worth every penny

The tour was good overall, but I felt it was a bit rushed. We couldn’t spend as much time as I wanted at the Radha Rani Temple in Barsana. The guide was knowledgeable but seemed in a hurry to cover everything within a tight schedule. The visit to the Taj Mahal was great, but I would have preferred a slower pace to fully enjoy each site. The arrangements were decent, but I think they could improve the pacing a bit

I booked the 2 Days Govardhan Barsana & Agra Tour with Mathura Vrindavan Tourism, and it was a fantastic experience! The trip was short, but we got to see so many beautiful places. The highlight was visiting the Radha Rani Temple in Barsana, such a peaceful and divine place. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared fascinating stories about each site. The Taj Mahal visit on the second day was magical. I am grateful for the smooth arrangements and highly recommend this package for a quick yet fulfilling trip
