Very memorable day out. - Did this food tour last Christmas and it was superb! A great way to try Indian street food and see Old Delhi, we were taken to the tour guides trusted vendors who prepared the food themselves. Particular favourite was the biscuits cooked over coals! I would highly recommend!

A sensory feast in Old Delhi - Spent an amazing day with Aditya wandering Old and New Delhi and sampling street food as we went. Having a knowledgeable guide is essential in Delhi and Aditya was great, taking us to places we would have had no chance of finding ourselves, negotiating with TukTuk drivers and giving us a history of the places we visited, some of which have been in the same family's hands for 140 years.
Cannot recommend highly enough!

Excellent tour, great food, strongly recommend. - Excellent tour with incredible food and history. Our guide, Chef Aditya, was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, and he took us to several spots a tourist like me would never find (or be brave enough to visit). Took my 11YO daughter, and she loved it, too. And Aditya took special care of her along the way.

Unexpected private tour of Chandni Chowk's deliciousness - Had a fantastic time walking around Chandni Chowk with my guide, Aditya. I was the only one who booked this particular day so I got a wonderful private tour. All the food was delicious! I only had one free day on a weeklong business trip to India, and this was the only "non-work" activity that I had time for. I'm so glad that I prioritized this tour!

Best 13 Hour Layover - On my return trip from Sri Lanka back to the states I had a 13 hour layover in Delhi, which obviously meant I had to book one noteworthy tour that made the most of my $10 India visa…and this one exceeded expectations. Not only were the food selections delicious, varied, and representative of the cuisine, but they were also sourced from family institutions that were established around a century ago. The best part however was my guide, Chef Aditya Shahi—request him if you can. As a formerly trained chef, he knew every recipe down to each specific spice, and could predict what flavor I should expect in each bite. He guided me through the beauty of thali and appreciating the differences between eating foods individually and in concert. All the while, he was so personable and fun and made great company for a solo traveler like myself :) And most importantly…I was STUFFED, both in the tummy and with food knowledge by the time I made it back to the airport.

Deliciously Delightful: A Culinary Adventure with Chef Adi - I had an amazing experience on our private food tour, especially with Chef Adi leading the way! His expertise added a unique depth to the tour, and his passion for food was infectious. We got to taste a wide variety of delicious dishes, each stop feeling like a culinary adventure. The pacing was perfect, allowing us to fully appreciate each dish without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a fantastic way to explore the local cuisine, and I can't wait to do it again!

Fantastic Experience - My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our food tour with Chef Adi. He was very knowledgeable about the way that the various spices/flavors work together, and we learned so much about the food of Old Delhi. Both my wife (who is an amazing cook) and I (who can't cook to save my life) had a wonderful time, and we both agree that we hope all future food tours we take are similar to this one. 10/10, would definitely recommend.

This is a very inactive, flavorful tour. Great guide, great food, lots of options yo learn more about the food and the culture. - We thoroughly enjoyed the street food tour. We went to many different stalls and had a variety of food from light to heavy, sweet to spicy, and everything in between. Our guide, Dave, was a former chef, so his knowledge of food was extensive. He knew his way around old Delhi and knew the vendors who were making the food. A word of advice: Don't have breakfast or have a very light breakfast, before you go. There was so much to taste and the tastes were often snack sized, so we were stuffed. The driver was also professional and efficient. Our guide and driver worked as a team, so we weren't spending time waiting around. The price was more than we paid for some other tours, but it was worth it. The value was there due to the quality of the tour and the guide.
