Had a truly amazing stay with John over my 2 days in Agra. This was a true homestay experience and the moment i stepped in, I felt welcomed and there was clear/meticulous planning in terms of what I wanted out of the day. Agra is a confusing place for tourists because there are endless touts and transport options and sites to visit. John helped me planned my days to my own liking and was a great guide for me as well. Bonus, I tasted home cooked food which I had missed over my long trip when his mum cooked dinner for me! Would definitely recommend

I had a wonderful stay at this small hotel. It’s affordable, reliable, and very comfortable. What really stood out was the kindness of the hostess, who was always helpful and shared great local recommendations that made the experience even better. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a friendly and welcoming place.

“Everything was easy & comfortable”
Very comfy bed, lots of space, extremely hospitable family. Moses is an exceptional host, very calm & positive person who will help you with anything you need & I highly recommend you take him as your guide for the Taj. He’s full of interesting facts, takes amazing photos & gives you time to wander & enjoy without overloading. It’s in a local area away from the tourists, there are lots of shops & market stalls just 5 mins up the road. I really enjoyed my stay here. Thank you so much Moses

“The best guesthouse I stayed in India”
This accommodation is amazing and was the best one I stayed in during my trip to India. It is a simple guesthouse, but you'll find everything you need. The rooms are comfortable and extremely clean (which for India is a big plus!), the food is delicious, and the staff is friendly. I'm very grateful to have met Moses, who owns the guesthouse. He is a traveler who has a lot of nice stories to tell. I also did a guided tour of the Taj Mahal with him, and it was very good. He took care of everything, and we (me and some other guests) had an amazing tour there at sunrise.

The feeling at zigzag is a home away from home. Moses and John are very welcoming and happy to help with everything. The beds are comfy and cool, the shared bathroom is clean. They offer tours which I would recommend as they are very experienced tour guides as well as being really fun guys. Food is available here also.

“Best stay in Agra for sure!”
John, the hosts, is remarkable human. So passionate about what he’s doing and the tours he give to people. The entire family his mum and sister were wonderful, we really felt like a part of family and while staying at ZigZag had a proper local assimilation experience. John went out of his way to organise for us a special sunset tour and helped us with everything we need. They have also organised dinners and breakfasts for us, it is the best stay in Agra for sure. Especially for travellers who want to emerge with local hospitality and kindness of Indian people.
