Full description

Discover Old Delhi on a guided tour. Explore Chandni Chowk on a tuk-tuk tour, stop at the local markets to try delicious street food, and see the India Gate.

Begin your tour with a pickup from your hotel and drive to Old Delhi to visit Jama Masjid, also known as the Masjid-i Jehan-Numa. Visit this massive mosque, built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan and dating from the 1600s.

Next, hop aboard a tuk-tuk and roam the streets of Chandni Chowk, the heart of Old Delhi. Explore this busy shopping area and enjoy the tantalizing smells wafting out from the markets full of spices, dried fruit, essential oils, and traditional sweets. See silver jewelry and vivid saris for sale.

Stop to try local street food with your guide, learning the best stalls for each type of food in the area. After eating, continue to the Red Fort. Decide if you wish to pay to enter or just admire this historic fort from the outside.

Finish your Old Delhi tour with a visit to India Gate. This war memorial sits astride the Rajpath, on the eastern edge of the ceremonial axis of New Delhi, formerly called Kingsway. Return to your hotel, driving past Parliament House.

We had just arrived into India this morning. Our guide, Saurabh Anand was extremely informative and helped us understand much about Delhi for our first time. We saw bustling Old Delhi which must be seen and smelled to really understand. We felt very well taken care of. Our driver was very professional amongst the crazy drivers in the streets. A great afternoon exploring a new city!

The tour was very pleasant and an excellent afternoon to see Old Delhi. The guide Asim was very knowledgeable of the historic sites and chose good options for local food tasting. He was quite patient and flexible according to what was desired to see. Very nice experience overall.

Big thanks to our guide Dermendra, he has huge baggage of knowledge, facts, is very supportive and friendly person. Our recommendations! We started a tour at 15:00, it would be better to take earlier time - we visited chandi chown, spicy market, Jama masjid, there was quite a traffic and we haven’t had enough time to visit other objects - Red fort & Indian Gate (but our guide did best to manage the timings). At the end we went to shopping, where you are offered carpets, etc - at a bit overpriced, but not offensive manner, but be prepared for that :) All in all, great trip, our recommendations!
