An outstanding way to see Delhi in a single day! Our guide, Rakesh, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, making every stop fascinating. The private car was comfortable and allowed us to cover so much ground efficiently, experiencing the contrasts of Old and New Delhi without any stress.

El Elena Petrova

Absolutely perfect for those with limited time! Our guide was excellent at tailoring the tour to our interests, and the private car meant we didn't waste a moment. It truly felt like a personalized journey through Delhi's ancient wonders and bustling contemporary life.

Ma Maria Rodriguez

Highly recommend this tour! Our guide was exceptional, providing insightful commentary and helping us navigate the vibrant chaos of Delhi with ease. We felt completely safe and comfortable, and it was truly the best way to experience the city's diverse culture and history in a single day.

Ol Oliver Wilson

A well-organized tour that showcased both the historical grandeur and modern vibrancy of Delhi. The private car made travel between sites seamless, saving us precious time. We particularly enjoyed the rickshaw ride through Old Delhi, though I would have liked a bit more time at the National Museum.

Sa Samir Khan

The tour covered a good range of attractions in Delhi, and the convenience of a private car was appreciated. However, I felt some stops were a bit too quick, and the guide's explanations, while informative, sometimes lacked depth for my personal interest. It's a solid option for a quick highlights reel.

Da David Miller

This tour was a fantastic overview for our first time in Delhi. We saw all the major sights, from the Red Fort to India Gate, and our driver navigated the busy streets expertly. While 8 hours felt a bit rushed in places, it was an excellent way to get a taste of the city's history and modern pulse.
