Guide was very knowledgeable and fun. Also going at sunrise is a must especially in the summer because of the heat plus it was empty.
Moses was an amazing tour guide, knowledgeable, friendly and full of great information for not just this tour but the rest of our trip. Great communication and spoke extremely good English. I would highly recommend him as the number 1 tour guide. We got in early and had the Taj Mahal almost to ourselves
Moses was an absolute delight of a tour guide, so interesting & informative. He was very friendly, knowledgeable & great at suggesting photo opportunities. We have so many beautiful photos of our visit. We had a fabulous sunrise tour of the Taj Mahal, an experience that will stay with us forever.

Moses’ Taj Mahal tour was excellent! We arrived early and beat all the crowds, and then saw an unforgettable sunrise.

Seeing the Taj Mahal at sunrise was spectacular and having John there as a guide only enhanced my experience. Sunrise was quieter so John show me all around the site without queues, always having interesting facts + info to give, and was patient when I wanted to wander. I’d recommend the tour to anyone who loves to learn history - I loved being able to sit + chat, ask questions, and have some photos taken - in the end it was a tour that was well worth the price. Thankyou John for a wonderful tour ❤️

I had an amazing time doing the Taj Mahal sunrise and Agra Fort tour with Moses from Zigzag homestay. Moses made everything very easy, he was so kind and generous, he and helped me book my tickets to Taj Mahal and Agra Fort the day before and made sure I woke up early in time for sunrise. I was the only one doing it so I had my own private tour! Moses was a great guide, he was very knowledgeable of the history of Taj Mahal and Agra Fort and took lots of incredible photos for me. He also took me to a coffee shop after to relax and gave me lots of recommendations on where to eat and also organised tuk tuks to take me to different spots. Moses is a legend! He made the experience unforgettable and I would definitely recommend booking these tours through Zigzag homestay and Moses.

I had an amazing experience with Moses! He was not only an incredible guide but also a personal photographer who knew all the best spots and angles around the Taj Mahal. What impressed me most, though, was his involvement in the local community. He volunteers regularly and inspired me to think more about giving back to communities that are often overlooked. His energy, passion, and genuine care for people were evident throughout the entire experience. He was incredibly easy to connect with, and spending the day with him made my visit to the Taj Mahal even more memorable. I highly recommend booking a tour with Moses!
Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. Your kind words truly touched me. I'm delighted that you enjoyed not only the tour and the photographs but also the conversations we shared along the way. Thank you for appreciating the community work that is close to my heart. If our time together inspired even a small thought about giving back, that means more to me than I can express. It was a genuine pleasure meeting you, and I'm grateful you chose to explore the Taj Mahal with me. Wishing you many more incredible journeys ahead, and I hope our paths cross again someday. Warm regards, Moses
