What people are saying about New Delhi

We took this one-day tour of Delhi as our time in Delhi was limited. Our tour guide Ramesh and driver Suresh both made this an excellent experience for us. Ramesh took us to all the sights and was sure to give us the choice of what we wanted to do throughout the tour in terms of which sights to see and what to do in each place, which we really appreciated. He is clearly very knowledgeable about the history of Delhi and he also got us some great photos! We particularly enjoyed the Lotus temple, Raj Ghat and Qutub Minar. Thanks for a great day and a brilliant way to experience both Old and New Delhi!

Wonderful experience! I missed a flight, had an extra day in Delhi, and booked this tour with one hour notice. I got extremely lucky with Raj as an expert tour guide, who knew every detail I asked about and chaperoned me through the busy magic of the city; and with Vishnu as an experienced driver, whose skills in navigating the traffic chaos are remarkable. At the end of the day, I had not only tasted the fascination of Delhi, but I felt like I had made two friends. I hope to come back soon, with more time for an extended experience.

I had a great tour of Old Delhi with Dharmendra (guide) and Naval (driver). Dharmendra was friendly and knowledgeable, and although it was only a half day tour we did lots. Highlights for me were the spice market and all the foods we tried. I definitely recommend this tour if you have limited time and want to make the most of it!

tushar is a great guide. knows a lot about New Delhi and can answer any questions. he is very polite, helpful and smile never comes off his face. he done excellent job during the whole tour. tushar, thank you very much for today.

Highly recommended! 6-7 stops at various food spots in Old Delhi. Accompanied by a welcoming and nice guide :)
