Most Asked Questions by our Guests.

Is one day enough to explore Delhi? +

While one day is a great start to explore both Old and New Delhi, we recommend a longer stay to fully absorb the city’s rich history and vibrant atmosphere. However, our Luxury Delhi City Tour ensures you experience the highlights of the city in a single, well-planned day, without feeling rushed.

How do I avoid "tourist traps" and scams? +

Our Luxury Delhi City Tour is designed to focus strictly on the city’s most famous historical sites. We handpick reputable guides and ensure your experience is authentic, steering clear of commission-based souvenir shops or “shop tours” that some tours may insist on.

What if I visit Delhi on a Monday? Are there closures? +

Some major sites like the Red Fort and Lotus Temple are closed every Monday. However, we plan our tours around these closures and ensure you visit the top attractions that remain open, so you won’t miss out on any key experiences.

When is the best time to visit Old Delhi? +

To truly experience the charm of Old Delhi, we recommend starting your day early—around 8:00 AM. The markets, like the vibrant Chandni Chowk, are less crowded during this time, giving you a more peaceful and enjoyable experience.

Is the tour customizable? +

Yes! We can customize the Luxury Delhi City Tour based on your preferences, whether you want to focus more on historical sites, shopping, or a leisurely experience. Just let us know your interests when booking, and we’ll tailor the tour to suit your needs.
