Top attractions in New Delhi

We had a few specific places we wanted to see Humayun's Tomb, Akshardam Temple, Agrasen di Baoli, lunch at Moti Mahal and some clothes shopping with whatever time left over for my fiancee. Our guide gave a nice background on the sites we visited and answered several of my questions along the way. Although pictures are not allowed inside Akshardam Temple I would still consider it a must stop in New Delhi. Of modern architecture I have not seen anything that compares to it. Moti Mahal, the creators of Butter Chicken, was absolutely delicious. The only problem we had with most restaurant stops was requesting spicy, but being foreigners receiving less spicy food from the restaurants. Moti Mahal was no exception. Still...delicous. The only negative thing I have to say was the shopping. There are several cheap places to buy clothes around New Delhi, but we were taken to a linen store that pays out commission to tour guides and was frankly overpriced on all their items.

On our business trip to India, we had that weekend in Delhi for some activities. We are glad to had that amazing tour with our guide Rishi. He has well knowledge about everything you might want to know about the history or present Delhi and everything beyond. He is engaged, smart and we felt safe among the whole tour. Afterwards you can say Delhi, especially Old Delhi is an open hearted, colorful city that spoils your nose with neverhad scents. On our list was in order of visitation Qutub Minar, Lotus Temple, Red Fort, to the alleys of Chandni Chowk to Jama Masjid and a small Sikh Temple, Khari Baoli Spice Market, Agrasen Ki Baoli, India Gate.

Worth revisiting cultural heritage sites and getting a taste of local specialities which may be on the spicier side for many. This is a very crowded part of Delhi and is full of life centuries after it was the centre of power in India. There is so much variety and history to absorb: only don’t let the strange aromas and the occasional dirt deter you. After all where else can one get so much of everything packed inside a 3 hour walking tour. Objectively speaking there are just 4 great cities in the world that can give you such an experience: Rome, Istanbul, Paris, and Delhi. No other city can.

we had a wonderful time on our street food and walking tour. our guide was prompt, well organized, efficient and fun to talk with. his English was excellent and he had a lot of interesting things to say about the area, its history and architecture. we particularly enjoyed both getting to use the subway and a rickshaw. thanks for a wonderful introduction to old Delhi.

My son & dad enjoyed the whole day private tour visiting the monuments in Delhi. The guide, Naveen was very friendly and showed all the places as per the plan mentioned. Also, chauffeur was very helpful. On time pick up and drop. Lunch was arranged by the guide in a very good hotel. Much appreciated by my dad! Overall happy times!!
