We were provided with Sabir by our Indian tour company and left for sunrise at the Taj Mahal, followed by a visit to Agra Fort. Sabir was very knowledgable and... read more enthusiastic about both places. Not only did he provide us with information, but he took us through at the optimum time given how busy the Taj is. He also gave us time as we wished to take it all in and did not hurry us in any way. Can't thank him and recommend him enough.
