A day to remember - excellent tour and lots of information from our guide Saurabh in relaxed easy going way. - Excellent day out in new and old Delhi with our guide Saurabh who was very polite and friendly and extremely knowledgeable about Indian history and culture but in a very accessible way (even for teenage kids!). Saurabh guided us round some beautiful monuments, explained other important buildings and their significance as we drove and leaving time for photos (he suggested places to get best shots). We had great international food choices at our lunch stop and the rickshaw ride was a real highlight. Note it’s a good idea to have some small change for tipping rickshaw driver and coverings / slippers etc. at mosque. Thank you to our driver too who navigated such busy roads and was always there to pick us up nearby which was very important given the heat and with so many people around. We had a lovely day without feeling rushed and experiencing a taste of Delhi, new and old.

A Day Tour of Delhi - A big thank you to Pankaj our guide and Samim our driver. Pankaj’s knowledge of the history of sites was excellent. Everything went very smoothly. He did a lot to make sure our experience was excellent. Samim is an excellent driver in what can only be described as chaotic road conditions.

Great idea for a day trip! - Vikram was a great tour guide! He took me and my mom around Delhi and he was extremely knowledgeable about the city, history and all it’s monuments. He was very flexible with the plan as we didn’t want to see some things and wanted to go to some markets instead. He was very patient as we stopped a few times along the route to get some items. Definitely recommend this trip if you’re looking to see Delhi in a day and experience this wonderful city.
