How To Choose the Right Travel Agent…..
Check the certification. If the travel agent is a member of the Indian Association of Tour Operators (IATO) so that's the promising Sign. A good travel advisor holds a client's hospitality and takes care of them.

Know The Best Time to Visit in Taj Mahal….
Here are the two best times to visit the Taj Mahal in Sunrise, and the Taj Mahal in Sunset. Sunrise is by far the best time to visit the Taj Mahal. Not just because the early morning light turns the dome of the temple a soft, golden color, but because this is the time when there are the least amount of tourists and if you get in early enough, you might even get some perfect portraits with no people in them. The Best Time to sunrise view in Winter is 7 AM if the Fogg doesn’t and in summer 5 - 6 AM. Taj Mahal views in Sunset, people gather across the river at the centuries-old restored Mehtab Bagh gardens to watch the sunset over the grand building from a distance. Sitting here was serene and quiet; the gardens themselves at twilight as you leave, with the moon overhead, are magic and rays spread the beauty of Incredible Taj.
