Fantastic tour - We had arrived to Delhi that day, and everything was a bit overwhelming. This tour made everything better. We got to see a bunch of different temples, a spice market and taste som very good street food. The food tasted amazing and was of good quality. The guide was nice, talkative and spoke very good English. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see some amazing temples, get a better picture of the culture and taste some good (and safe to eat) food

Exceptional and fun behind the scenes market tour! - This delightful tour goes behind the scenes to experience an insider view of various temples, taste a sampling of assorted regional foods, and experience the local markets in a safe environment. JD is professional, knowledgeable, and his ability to use the English language to weave a personal and humorous narrative is exceptional. He promptly responded to our numerous inquiries and made sure we were safely with our transport after the tour. His breath of cultural, religious, and worldly knowledge was impressive. This experience is must for anyone wanting a safe glimpse into the India flavors of food, culture, street markets and temples.

Food Tour around Old Delhi with JD was a 10/10 Experience!!! Highly Recommend! - The food tour with JD was EXCEPTIONAL!!! From the moment we met up to the moment we departed, myself and my group felt safe, taken care of, well informed, and taken on a journey of all the different tastes and cuisine that Old Delhi in India has to offer. JD handled our group of foreign citizens very well - he communicated with us, taught us about his culture and the different foods, protected us as we walked through Old Delhi especially in the crowded areas, and guided us dutifully. He even helped us get an uber at the end and cross a busy street to get to it, and cared enough to have us text him when we arrived safely to our destination. He cared. I would highly recommend him - 10/10!!!!

Fantastic Old Delhi Experience! - This experience was recommended to us by a friend, and I’m so glad we decided to spend our last afternoon in Delhi with JD! Not only are the food stops all hand-picked and tested/tried - but they’re also delicious! We got to see so much of the diversity Delhi has to offer in just 3 h - temples, a mosque, the spice market, and even a rickshaw ride. JD was personable, funny, and also made us feel extremely safe and comfortable the entire experience, which was very much appreciated. You’ll be in great hands, and this tour can’t be missed if you’re coming out to Delhi. Beware that the traffic and crowds around the red fort metro stop (the meet up place) can be a bit overwhelming at first…but we were able to connect with JD within minutes of arriving via phone.

Old Delhi with JD - I absolutely loved this event. We went with JD trough the Streets of old Delhi and got a lot of interesting informations from him. We‘ve visited some temples, Public kitchen, a mosque etc. He also bought us a lot of delicious Street food and showed us the popular spice market ! But the best thing about the Tour was the Guide, JD, himself. He is such a kind and open minded guy and we had a lot to laugh together ! I would definitely recommend visiting old delhi with JD !!!

JD’s irony was the highlight of the tour! Best guide in the chaotic Old Delhi - JD was an incredible great guide!! It was my first time and my first day in India altogether and JD helped a lot with the cultural shock 😂 We toured around Old Delhi while having some amazing street food (my best lassi ever!) and very interesting conversation about the culture and the city. JD has an incredible sense of humor and his irony made the experience all the more fun! If you are in doubt, please don’t be. JD is definitely the right choice! Thanks again 🥰

Best Tour food Tour and Cultural experience 10/10 - This was more than just a tour. It was an immaculately well thought out cultural immersion in the heart of Old Delhi. The narrative behind the scenes (that JD revealed at the end) that drove the selection of each location we visited and each food we tried was perfectly laid out. A must do for anyone looking to experience the diversity that Delhi has to offer in one of the oldest and largest wholesale markets in India.check his Instagram @foodtoursdelhi

Tour of Delhi's Chandni Chowk: JD expertly blends city history, food, culture, and religion. Visits carefully chosen sta - On a tour of Delhi's Chandni Chowk market, JD skillfully wove the story of the city with extensive knowledge. The tour touched on food and spices, but also delved into Indian religion, culture, and way of life. JD carefully selected the best food spots in the market, each specializing in a unique delicacy. He knows the story behind every stall and the families who run them. Combined with visits to temples and a mosque, he created an unforgettable experience. The food on the tour was amazing and safe, and JD's explanations, along with his genuine interest in the culture, made the tour perfect. I highly recommend it! בסיור בשוק Chandi Chowk בדלהי, JD טווה בשכל והרבה ידע את את סיפורה של העיר. הסיור נוגע באוכל ותבלינים, אבל גם בדת, תרבות ואורח החיים ההודי. JD בוחר בפינצטה את מקומות האוכל הטובים ביותר בשוק, כשכל אחד מהם מתמחה במעדן ייחודי. הוא מכיר את הסיפור מאחורי כל דוכן וכל משפחה שמנהלת אותו ובונה, יחד עם ביקור במקדשים ובמסגד הוא יוצר חוויה בלתי נשכחת. האוכל בסיור מדהים ובטוח.”
