“Overall it was a good trip. The pick up/drop-off arrangements were excellent. The guide in Agra was also very helpful and accommodating....we had kids with us. The train trip was ok..but don't plan on using the toilets. Agra station toilets were filthy..could not use it. Very surprising since it is a tourist destination.”
