Monika is an amazing guide and most genuine person. She is very knowledgeable and explained the history of the sites we visited very clearly. The sunrise Taj Mahal visit was a highlight with her. She helped me with my saree and took the most beautiful pictures, looking for the best spots. It was a pleasure meeting her and enjoying Agra with her. I would definitely book her again for a next visit!

We did a two day tour of Agra and Fatehpur Sikri with Monika and had a fantastic time. Monika is knowledgeable, personable and made our trip memorable! Monika arranged for us to drive from Delhi and met us a Fatehpur Sikri and gave us a detailed history tour (per our interests/request) and patiently answered all our questions. Then we drove to Agra, checked into our hotel and went to see Taj Mahal at sunset and we got a phenomenal view from across the river. The ride to the trail leading up the river was an adventure in itself! The traffic on the bridge came to a standstill and our car could not move.. Monika took charge and asked if we were good with walking through the traffic dodging vehicles. Once we crossed the bridge, she hustled and got an Auto and took us to the trail in time for sunset and met our car later. The next morning, she was up bright and early before sunrise and took us to Taj.. Seeing Taj without crowds at a leisurely pace as she pointed out various historical and architectural elements was indeed the highlight of the trip. Later in the day she took us to Agra fort followed by some Peta/Dalmut exploration in town :-). The car/driver she arranged for us was good and she even called us later in the evening to make sure we reached Delhi safely! Monika is very respectful of our needs and works hard to make sure we come out with a great experience. We have traveled to many places in the world and I would place Monika as one of the best tour guides we have had. She is very resourceful, accommodating and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend Monika to my friends visiting Agra! Thanks again Monika!

I selected Monika Sharma to be my Guide in Northern India Monika did not have the exact itinerary I was looking for but after I contacted her, she told she would build a custom 5-day tour for me. I wanted to explore Delhi, Jaipur and especially the Taj Mahal and the tour she designed was perfect for me. As Monika was based in Agra, she assured me that her expertise in the cities I wanted to visit was excellent, she was not exaggerating! Monika’s education and background made her the perfect fit for me. I wanted the trip to be a combination of Indian history, sightseeing, and some shopping. Monika has deep knowledge on it all. I saw the historic sights and Monika knows where to shop for the best specific items. I did not have to navigate anything by myself, she knows where the “best of the best is located” The other aspect I really appreciated about Monika’s approach was her flexibility. She is also one of the kindest, most intuitive guides I have worked with. I felt like an honored guest in her presence. She never tired of my relentless questions about her country and culture. If you want in depth history on India or just want to shop the highest quality places, Monika is the right guide to for you!

Monika is an incredible tour guide. She went above and beyond to make the trip for myself and my parents an amazing one. From helping us with a fantastic driver from airport pick up to drop off in Jaipur, recommending cooling towels to tackle the Agra heat and being a genuinely kind and caring person. Her knowledge of the Taj Mahal and Agra fort is incredible. We also had the most wonderful time with her in Jaipur at Amber Fort and the Wind Palace. She is incredible accommodating and a fantastic guide. I could not recommend more! I discovered Monika on Trip Advisor and found a comment where someone had posted her number. I’m so glad I messaged her as she is a complete star!
