Our tour was fantastic- great hotels, and our driver Rajesh was excellent- he put us at ease and could help with anything. We had very informative guides and particularly enjoyed our guide Hassan in Agra whose love of the Taj Mahal shone through and the history he shared and all the best places to take photos and have great views. We will definitely consider a return trip to India and Tour Radar and the tour company Fragrance of Taj

? An Unforgettable Holi Experience – March Magic in India! ? I recently returned from an incredible Holi tour this March organized by WTX,, and I honestly can’t stop smiling every time I think about it! From the vibrant colors to the joyous energy of the locals, every single moment was like stepping into a living festival of happiness. The tour was brilliantly organized—our guides were not only knowledgeable about the cultural and historical significance of Holi, but they also made sure we participated in the festivities safely and respectfully. The traditional music, dance, and delicious food added even more magic to the celebration. WTX ensured we experienced the festivities in the most authentic yet safe and respectful way possible. One of the highlights was playing Holi with locals and fellow travelers, throwing gulal (colored powder) under the warm March sun, and feeling like part of something so ancient yet so full of life. I came home with a suitcase full of memories, colorful clothes (in the best way possible), and a heart full of gratitude. If you're thinking about celebrating Holi in India, I wholeheartedly recommend booking with WTX. They turn a great trip into a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
