About this experience
A full-day tour of Old Delhi and New Delhi offers a captivating journey through time, culture, and heritage. Begin your day in Old Delhi, where the bustling streets and ancient architecture tell tales of the Mughal era. Visit the magnificent Red Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and explore its grand palaces and pavilions. Then, immerse yourself in the vibrant chaos of Chandni Chowk, a bustling market that epitomizes the spirit of Old Delhi. Here, narrow lanes are filled with the aroma of street food and the echoes of centuries-old stories.
Next, head to New Delhi, a stark contrast to the old city with its wide avenues, colonial architecture, and tree-lined boulevards. Visit the majestic India Gate, a war memorial dedicated to Indian soldiers, and drive past the Parliament House and the President's House. Marvel at the architectural masterpiece of Humayun's Tomb, a precursor to the Taj Mahal, and explore the serene surroundings of the Lotus Temple, a symbol of unity and peace.
