Description

Step into Old Delhi, a world where centuries-old bazaars, temples, aromas, and traditions still shape daily life. Your journey begins with a warm pickup by your expert heritage guide—trained specifically in Old Delhi history, culture, and storytelling. As you drive toward the old walled city in a private AC vehicle, your guide introduces the Mughal era, shaping the story you’re about to walk into. Arrive at Chandni Chowk, where life moves with an energy found nowhere else. Ride through narrow lanes on a traditional cycle rickshaw, turning transportation into part of the adventure. Your guide leads you into hidden alleys and historic corners that most tours overlook—old havelis, spice shops bursting with color, royal residences, and artisan workshops that have been running for generations. Visit landmarks such as the Jama Masjid, Asia’s largest mosque, with stories of emperors, architecture, rituals, and local culture woven into every step. Continue to centuries-old bazaars where your guide decodes the chaos—showing where wedding sarees are handcrafted, where silver is shaped, and where spices are ground fresh every morning. Get access to special locations, such as rooftop viewpoints overlooking the old city, temple courtyards, or heritage homes still occupied by families for over 200 years—spots typically missed by standard tours. If you choose the add-on, enjoy a tasting of safe, curated local snacks selected to avoid the hygiene issues most travelers worry about. This tour operates even during peak hours, early mornings, and late afternoons—times rarely offered by others—giving you a quieter, more intimate Old Delhi experience. Multilingual guides are available so travelers can explore in their preferred language with full cultural clarity. Your experience ends with a comfortable drive back, with your guide helping you navigate any final recommendations, purchases, or onward travel plans. This half-day tour is crafted for travelers looking for a personal, authentic, and well-curated Old Delhi immersion—without stress, confusion, or getting lost in the crowd.
