Meet our tour leader outside the “Madame Tussauds” museum, Delhi. Visit “Janpath” street market, Here you get to do the best of street shopping. You will mostly find small kiosks selling all kinds of cotton clothes and curios. The clothes are generally export-surplus garments and are sold dirt-cheap. There's lots of silver and artificial jewellery studded with semi-precious stones available here. Shopping here requires a couple of skills. One, you must have the ability to distinguish the fake from the genuine. Two, you must know and practice the art of bargaining patiently.
We move on to The Connaught place, When it came into being, the sprawling circular market was the largest of its kind in India. The British believed that the horseshoe-shaped market would prove lucky for the shoppers and the shopkeepers both. There are plenty of Multicuisine restaurants around, we shall take you to a hygienic street stall for tasting local flavours. There are plenty of Veg & Non Veg items on the offerings.
To conclude, Our tour leader will leave you near a nearest metro station/taxi stand.
