Overland Tour to Taj Mahal

[Jamietravelstheworld]

Has anyone done an independent overland tour to the Taj Mahal recently (last couple years), and if so, what company did you go with? My ship's overland is ridiculously expensive and sold out, so I'm looking for other options. The ship's tour departs from Male, Maldives, but other departure options would be Mangalore or Cochin, India, with a return to Colombo, Sri Lanka. Thanks.

We did Taj Mahal overland from Cochin and join the ship at Mumbai , We used Muziris Heritage India Experiences. It was a great trip, you can reach them www.TourWithLijo.con

FYI, in my above post about Taj Mahal, I realized I made a mistake - I have now corrected it so the information above is correct - but we are returned to Colombo on the 2nd day in Colombo, not the first.

I totally posted my above replies on the wrong board - meant to post them on my roll call, so sorry, I don't think I can delete from here.

No worries about posting in the wrong place! Thanks for following up with the correction. This overland tour to the Taj Mahal sounds like an amazing option. I can totally see the appeal of doing it independently versus the much pricier ship-organized tour. And what a treat it would be to join back up with the ship in vibrant Colombo too.
