Your tour begins with a morning pick-up, where your driver will escort you to Red Fort to meet your guide. Upon arrival, you'll be seated in a tuk-tuk that will ride you through Delhi's oldest and bustling market, Chandni Chowk and drop you to Jama Masjid, one of Asia's largest mosques with a capacity for 25,000 worshippers. Marvel at the picturesque mosque and listen to intriguing stories of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, who commissioned its construction in the 1600s—next, venture to Khari Baoli, Asia's largest spice market. Here you can purchase high-quality spices and condiments at amazing wholesale prices.
Then you'll head to Red Fort, the former residence of Mughal kings, and stop for a short lunch break. Your journey will continue with a 30-minute drive to Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, renowned for its massive community kitchen serving thousands daily. At Gurudwara, you can engage in prayer services, learn about Sikhism, and capture memorable moments. Moving on, within another 30-minute drive, you'll reach Delhi's iconic India Gate. Your guide will brief you about this gate’s colonial background and significance. You’ll pass by the Parliament House and Rashtrapati Bhavan, both symbols of Indian democracy and heritage.
