Discovering Delhi

A very immersive and real tour. Parul is charming, in addition to showing us real places she has also told us and taught us part of the traditions of this city and its most authentic part.

Small eateries, culture and conversation

Sonali was my guide on this very authentic, fun and delicious tour of small eateries. We tried 10 different vegetarian dishes, visited character-filled markets and streets, and were able to have time for great conversation all the way. Sonali is a very friendly and knowledgeable guide who is both experienced and fresh in her approach. I thought she listened to me well and showed genuine interest in me.

A cacophony of sounds, sights, smells, and flavours

My tour was lead by the wonderful Sonali, nothing was too much trouble and I learned a lot about Indian history and food culture. I had a great time experiencing the sights, smells, and as it is a food tour, tastes of Old Delhi and couldn’t eat anymore by the end. I am so glad to have done it would happily do it again if I’m back in Delhi in a year or two.

Operator response

Excellent

Spending time with Sonali was truly one of the best part of my trip to Delhi. She took me to a part of the city I never would have visited on my own, and it turned out to be absolutely fascinating and unforgettable. From the very beginning, I felt completely safe and comfortable with her. She was fun, engaging, incredibly knowledgeable, and shared so much about Old Delhi that I would have never discovered otherwise. I can’t recommend Sonali highly enough. I would happily do this exact tour again and would sign up for any other experience she offers. She is absolutely phenomenal, and I give her 10 out of 5 stars!

MUST DO

This was wonderful experience! We wouldn't even know where to start and the meet up location was easy to get to and our tour guide was easy to find. She was an expert navigator and very kind to us. All the food was amazing and like the quality was amazing. None of us got sick and we got to experience an authentic street food! Amazing and would do again. This felt like our most cultural experience of our entire visit. Highly recommend. Parul was a great tour guide and very educated, our most educated tour guide and shared a lot about the culture here with us.

Highly recommended food tour.

This tour was recommended to me by friends and it did not disappoint. Parul was an excellent guide. friendly and talkative. The food was great and really enjoyed getting to see Old Delhi with someone experienced with navigating the city. Was a mixture of savory and sweet foods, chai, and lassi. Highly recommend this tour.
