It was very frustrating that the guide did not have our correct itinerary and kept trying to sell us on an extended day when we had already paid for it. For the first part of the day we wasted time as he thought we only had the half day booked even though we told him otherwise. He was not a good guide and I think he was a down right liar. We didn’t get to see the Qutb Minar as we should have earlier in the day if he had the correct itinerary. We got sick of his b.s and excuses. This tour was a joke and a horrible experience compared to our tour the next day in Jaipur where we actually followed the Viator itinerary. I would rate this tour experience -1 stars if I could. He eventually stopped at an ATM to pay us back for entry fees as we had prepaid those as well. I wish I had been warned on Viator about what we were going to experience as we would have booked elsewhere.
This was absolutely amazing and exceeded expectations. If you want to hit Delhi in a day, this is it!
Very good experience with Aamir was an excellent tour guide felt very comfortable and safe. awesome.
With only 1 day in Delhi, we got to see everything you need to see. Amir has all the background information you want to know about the sights. Very easy to get around a busy city. We got great memories now to take with us back to Australia. We highly recommend this tour…. Namaste !
I would definitely not try to navigate the Chadni Chowk market without a guide. Rashi was knowledgeable about Old Delhi and extremely helpful in navigating our car driver, Tuk Tuk driver, and taking us everywhere we requested in Old Delhi. Very thankful for her assistance and sharing her expertise.
Amir was an excellent guide. He knew alot abt the history of the sights we visited and evrything was eell planned
We had a wonderful day with Shabbat. He was extremely polite and knowledgable. The car and driver were excellent. The Aircon was very effective. The rickshaw ride was exhilarating due to navigating through the chaotic streets of old Delhi. We sampled some good food and drink. The spice market was very interesting. Would highly recommend.
The tour of Delhi was great! Durgesh, our guide, explained everything great to us and responded to spontaneous special requests immediately. Our driver, Anil, took us safely through the chaotic streets. For one day stay in Delhi this is a great tour!
