Dear Travellers, Namaste!

I still remember my very first tour years ago - walking beside a guest through the Taj Mahal as sunrise lit its marble in gold.At that moment, I realised guiding isn’t just about dates or dynasties; it’s about creating connections that cross cultures and time.That joy has kept me going ever since.

My name is Atiq, a Government of India-approved Tour Guide, licensed by the Ministry of Tourism.For over 15 years, I’ve been helping travellers from the United States, Europe, and around the world experience India in ways that go far beyond guidebooks.With a Master’s degree in Medieval Indian History and early experience in the hotel industry, I understand both the depth of India’s past and the comfort today’s travellers expect.

Over the years, I’ve led more than 2,500 private tours through Agra, Delhi, Rajasthan, the Golden Triangle, and beyond - each one a new story shared, a new friendship made.

My Guiding Philosophy
I live by the Indian philosophy “Atithi Devo Bhava” - The Guest is God.Every guest is treated with genuine warmth, respect, and care.
For me, guiding is a passion and a privilege.I want you to experience India beyond its monuments - through its people, flavours, traditions, and everyday life.From the grand Mughal forts to colourful markets and peaceful courtyards, I’ll help you discover the India that locals know and love.

Agra - My Home and My Inspiration
Agra, once the heart of the Mughal Empire, is where I was born and raised.Walking through its streets feels like stepping through chapters of a living history book.I enjoy sharing the stories - both famous and hidden - that bring each site to life.

Tailor-Made Tours, Designed for You
Every tour with me is personalised to match your interests, pace, and comfort.Whether you’re a couple exploring for the first time or a history enthusiast seeking deeper insights, I take care of the details — timings, dining, transportation, and local experiences - so your journey is effortless and memorable.

Photography - Capturing Your Memories
I’m also passionate about travel photography, and I love helping guests capture natural, unforgettable photos.From perfect angles at the Taj Mahal to candid shots in local markets, I’ll help you return home with images that tell your story.

My Uncompromising Promise to You
Your well-being always comes first.I uphold three guiding principles:

Safety - Careful planning and awareness at every step.

Security - A transparent, protected, and hassle-free experience.

Hygiene - Clean, reliable restaurants and rest stops throughout your journey.

You are most welcome to explore Agra, Delhi, Rajasthan and other locations in India with me.Let’s create experiences you will always remember.

If you have any questions, I’d be happy to assist you anytime.

Warm regards,
Atiq
