Munir's Birthday at the Taj

By the time i boarded the plane it was 21st Oct..Munir's birthday
A real suprise to discover that i had been upgraded from Economy to Business class 👏..for this leg of the journey..I had told Emirates my story ...so maybe this made the difference.
I was relieved to be met at the airport by Hamid from Discovery Prime Tours...Id been worried that booking direct with a company in India i might come unstuck...not so..I was given a folder with full itinerary
Choosing to arrange a private tour with my own guide and driver will mean I can spend my time efficiently and see the things that matter .
On arrival at my hotel the guide Krishan met me ..He was delightful ,listened carefully to my story and made my wish come true ...to go directly to the Taj Mahal on Munir's birthday.
My room.also fulfilled my wish to have a Taj View room..awesome.
I sense munir's calming influence cos I feel v peaceful rather than going to bits .
Krishan and Hamid waited till I changed into my Salwar Chemise and whisked me to the Taj....
A wonderful courtyard proceeds the entrance and you approach the Taj through an arch.Its magical
Krishan knew all the best places for photos and was an excellent photographer too..Id never have achieved so many photos of myself at the taj without him
He explained the love story behind the building of the Taj. Ironic tht the queen it was built for was also only in her 30's when she died
I had a fabulous time.
Before returning to the hotel Krishan took me to fabric shop where I chose material that was made up into a made to.measure Salwar Chemise in 3hrs !
An evening meal and early night concluded an epic 36ish hours.Read more
