Day 01: Delhi (Full day tour of Old and New Delhi- 08 hours day tour)

At 9 AM, Our representative would meet & greet you at your hotel / address in Delhi and would introduce your tour to you.

We proceed on a guided tour of New Delhi, Visiting such sights as, Humayun's Tomb (1565), the Qutub Minar 72 meters high and one of the most perfect towers in the Persian world. The Iron Pillar which has survived the vagaries of weather for over 1600 years. Continue with a drive through Embassy area, the Government buildings (1911-1929) and Connaught Place, the heart and main shopping district of the capital. We will also visit India Gate.

1 PM - 2 PM, lunch break, Later, we cross the city and into the walled gates of the Old city with visits to the Jamma Mosque (1650) and drive through the fabled area of Chandni Chowk (aptly translates to Moonlight Square) where the throngs of shoppers and vendors meet in the oldest area of Delhi. Visit the Raj Ghat and nearby ghats where the founder of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi and thereafter Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi were cremated.

The highlight of this tour would be a ride on cycle rickshaws. Now these are 3-wheel cycles with a sofa seat at the back. The Rickshawalla (Rickshaw driver) sits on a small cushion in the front and two passengers on the sofa seat behind. This is a remarkable way to explore and picture the hustle and bustle as well as the colour of the narrow winding streets bursting with people and pavement shops selling wares of all description - including a laughing set of dentures. The ride would be accompanied by peals of laughter both from the passengers as well as the onlookers.

At 5.00 PM, we will drop you at your address / hotel in Delhi.
