    We explored the nearby locality of Taj Mahal with Heritales. Our walk leader Anal guided us through these narrow streets, to the homes and workshops of many handicraft artisans including marble inlay work which is used in the Taj also. This tour was amazing and helped us with knowledge of local handicrafts in Agra. ~ Alan, France
