Namaste!! I take the privilege to share about myself. My name is Zeeshan I was born and raised in the rich history of India, in the beautiful city of Agra, I had no hesitation in becoming a tour guide because I couldn't help but be attracted by the allure of the history and architecture of the monuments located in Agra since my childhood. I chose to become a tour guide to fulfill my passion and learn, share about the customs, traditions, culture, history and architecture of my amazing country that has a unity in diversity. I am 31 years old and 11 of them I dedicated as a tour guide. I am polite, professional, sociable, punctual and friendly. I can interest you by presenting interesting facts about India. I always take into account the wishes of my clients and create individual plans for the excursion. I help my guests choose the best stops, shops, cafes and transfers. I did my masters in Indian history (medieval period). I think my journey has just started when I discovered a tremendous amount of knowledge of North Indian history, architecture and culture by reading and traveling so I am well versed to offer the tour like a local. I consider myself a professional in this field, I am happy that my clients take their memories of India tour as an experience to cherish throughout their life. In simple words, you can travel with me as an old family friend from India.

Zeeshan is very professional and has a huge knowledge he can provide. I learnt a lot of things I wouldn’t have known without joining the tour. It’s not a big city tour but gives very nice insights to a hidden side of Agra.

A nice basic tour for Agra with a friendly guide. A quick way to see some of the other spots in Agra (outside of the Fort and Taj).
