This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that’s the way I like it!

Half of the Indian population has never seen Taj and 80% has never been inside, but then this video shows the beauty and pride and insight of how elegant is this hotel
Music, photography, information with explanation all I like. Thank you
Wow Kevin what an awesome video! Since subscribing to your channel I thought I had watched all your videos. Today I realized I had missed this one. I have to say of all the videos on your channel it is my favorite. You captured every essence of this hotel perfectly and you make the viewer feel like they are actually there experiencing it for themselves.
I thank you for showing in cc our Odia language
i love lt mumbai
Your camera maneuverability is immaculate.
Hi Kevin, you absolutely did this video justice and gave the The Taj Mahal Palace the resect it deserves 👏 From describing the sights, sounds, and smells to the slow cinematic footage accompanied with an excellent choice of relaxing background music the viewer was transported through your lens to the hotel with you. Well done 👍
2:02 where did you find such high detail satellite image of the city? I read somewhere that Indian government have set a low detail standard for satellite imagery used by map apps in India.
If you see satellite image of a city in other countries, it would be much more detailed and clear than any indian city
Is the discotheque named 1900’s still open?
I’m actually staying at the Taj right now and find your video and narrative absolutely fantastic!
Your choice of visuals and the production quality is great. Now I can stop trying!
Great job in expressing the sincerity of the staff and desire to please. They are extraordinary.
This is more than a stay; it’s an experience.
Taj Mahal is a Cemetary .Why did Tata name the hotel Taj Mahal.Just curious.
Bro thx for 4k vdo of Taj n enjoyed fully n angles are perfect n done very hard job Bhai.🙏🇮🇳
The pool area was magical. But not enough to go all the way to India for. I want Luxury.
Namaste
Mr. Ratan Tata is a gem of India. Long live!
I'm binge watching all your videos at the moment very interesting and breathtaking hotels.Love them all.
Your videos are produced really well. Really enjoyed watching this one.
Making a hotel video is one thing but connecting with its history, philosophy and culture is totally different. Apart from the information the warmth and connect this video has made is truly amazing 😍😍😍😍.
Very very good job sir. Keep up the great work ❤❤
On that fateful day on November 26, 2008, many of the staff could have left and most of them knew various exits where they could escape. But no one left. Later it was taken as a case study by various institutions around the world, about, why none of the staff leave, even at the face of imminent death. There's also a TED talk on it
That was a great review. Your contents are amazing ❤
Very good and informative video
Funfact : The Taj Hotel is older than the famous landmark, India Gate itself.
Btw , the room you showed seems very average , but other vloggers I have seen got excellent rooms. You could try to get Rooms with India gate viewpoint.
Beautifully narrated and what an amazing way to portray the grandeur and beauty of this place.
Nice background music !
Well detailed video.
Appreciate your work Kevin 💓
Love from INDIA 🇮🇳💓
93/100 is an excellent score…A Big Thank You from a Taj Hotel Aficionado
Ur video amazing Im so excited to visit india on ❤
Man, you made me emotional. So, I subscribed.
Absolutely mesmerising Kevin. Expect more videos like this. Forced to subscribe to experience your wonderful reviews. By the way who is the flautist who is playing in the background and which is the album. The music is apt with the narrative.
My wife and I stayed in Bombay in 1991 on our honeymoon tour. Couldn't afford the Taj so we stayed at Apollo hotel in the backstreets just behind the Taj. Popped in for relief from the heat in the deliciously cooled lobby. Beautiful video! Need to go back and stay here soon, now that I can afford it 🙂
Thanks!
Such a beautifully made video. Thank you! My sisters and I loved snacking at Sea Lounge during the occasional visit in childhood…meals at Shamians were very good also. There is a certain dignity…calmness…and luxuriousness to this historical site! You feel relaxed and uplifted when you're at the Taj!
I've never watched such a detailed and demonstrative tour of any hotel
Thank you for the video
Keep creating!❤❤
