Description:

Explore the heart and colorful culture of Old Delhi on this walking tour through the city’s frenetic streets. Hear the history of the area from an experienced local guide, while you visit vibrant markets, exquisite temples, and historic landmarks.

Meet your guide at the sleek Hotel Jivitesh for an aromatic cup of morning chai, before jumping on the metro to travel like the locals across town. Within the hectic world of street markets and bazaars, watch salesmen hawk bright, handmade wares including clothes, jewelry, wedding accessories, and marigold chains.

Spoil your taste buds over samosas—crisp fried pastries, stuffed with savory spiced meats—as you observe city life unfold in front of you. Next, proceed to sights linked to the 1857 Mutiny—India’s First War of Independence—which was brutally quelled by the British.

Tune in to your guide, as they explain the events leading to Mahatma Gandhi’s peaceful uprising, and hear more about India’s struggle for independence, as well as the country’s current issues. Finish off your tour with a bout of spirituality at a Hindu temple, and part ways with your guide to continue exploring Delhi on your own.
