Did a tour of the Taj with Kamran ( registered guide ). What an amazing experience. From the entrance of drop off zone for Taj, to getting there. From getting our tickets ( bypassing the line) to getting us entered into the complex. From explaining the historical facts and clearing up a lot of wrongful info floating around about the Taj to taking amazing pictures of us....it was an unforgettable experience. The ideas I had for the Taj and the sort of pictures I wanted...was exactly what I got ( maybe a little bit more )....PS. we got there at 5 pm and were running a little short on time. However, he showed us around and helped us with the tour and pictures as much as was humanly possible. Thank you Kamran !!! If I ever get a chance to visit the monument again, I will definitely hire him. ????
