One day Delhi Trip - Our Delhi tour, which covered both Old and New Delhi, was an unforgettable experience, thanks to our wonderful guide, Shaily. She was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and shared relatable stories that made the tour even more enjoyable. The trip was well-organized, with Shaily ensuring everything, including tuk-tuk drivers, was arranged in advance. She even took care of our kids while we explored sights at a leisurely pace. Our driver, Neeraj Ji, was punctual, friendly, and drove safely, making us feel at ease throughout the journey. The tour was worth every penny, and the food included was some of the finest we’ve had. Overall, it was an exceptional experience.

Best delhi tour with the best guide - We had an amazing delhi tour where we toured the old and new delhi. Shaily was our tour guide. She was extremely friendly and accomodating. She had stories to share which we could relate to. The tour was well organized, with Shaily preparing the needful, like tuk tuk drivers, in advance so that they were all ready when we reached. She even babysat our kids who could not climb the steep steps while we leisurely went sightseeing. Overall, she is what anyone would want from a tour guide.
Neeraj ji was our driver. He was friendly, and was always punctual. He drove safely and we were assured to be in good hands.
The tour in itself was worth every penny. Food was included, and the food was one of the finest we've had. It was a great tour all in all.

check all included stops! - I would recommend others to check the stops that are included in the tour. If you are told that a temple is closed or something like that, check on the internet. This happened to me. The woman guide told me about the end 3 hours earlier than I expected, I mentioned that I still had to visit a place and she told me that "it was closed" which was not true. I insisted and they took me but she did not go inside with me, she gave me some short explanations outside and it was obvious that she was upset. The different places are amazing but the guided was average.

90 minutes late - Was basically a no show. We were scheduled to be picked up at 9:00. We contacted them at 9:05 and the driver said he would be 30 minutes. Then 9:35 still not there contact him again and he says another 40 minutes. Doesn't turn up until 10:30. 90 minutes late. The administration is blaming traffic and the driver, but later in the day the guide carefully asks us if we booked yesterday, as if he thought the booking was last minute. We are tourists new to India wondering if we had been scammed.
So I think the admin had failed to sort out our booking. We were getting automated confirmation emails, so thought it was fine, but I recommend manually confirming with them.
Be aware that this company farms their reviews well, which I think is fine for good reviews. But we were strongly pressured to remove an earlier 1-star review that we made when we had the time waiting for them to show up. They offered a refund (which we haven't got), but that's not required.
To the operators, do not harass us to take this down. We won't, as this is a fair review of what happened.
Once we got going, we had a great, though shortened and rushed, day. Danish was a good guide: knowledgeable and friendly. Please see my other review for a much better experience on our Agra tour.
