Private Tour, The Portraits of Old and New Delhi with Pickup Included

A quintessential itinerary that showcases the rich heritage of India’s capital city. Few capitals in the world have as many monuments of which Delhi is justly proud, an astonishing array of forts, palaces, tombs, mosques, and government buildings.

– Drive by the majestic Red Fort, enjoy a Pedicab ride around Chandni Chowk (old shopping street), Sisganj Gurudwara, Gali Paranthewali, Khari Baoli (reputed to be Asia’s biggest spice market), Kinari Bazaar (wedding market), Dariba Kalan (the Jewelers lane) and Churiwalli Galli (lane of bangle sellers).
– Visit Jama Masjid, among the largest mosques in India, Raj Ghat, a memorial of the great Mahatma Gandhi, visit UNESCO world heritage sites – Humayun’s tomb, a predecessor to the famous Taj Mahal & Qutab Minar, the world’s tallest brick minaret.
– Drive past the government buildings and presidential palace and Diplomatic enclave, Lotus Temple (Monday closed), etc.
– Visit the Temple of the Sikh, Gurudwara, and its community kitchen.

Qutub Minar, a 237-foot sandstone tower, is an impressive monument built in 1193. It is a soaring Afghan-style victory tower and minaret, erected by Sultan Qutb-ud-din in 1193 to proclaim his supremacy over the vanquished Hindu rulers of Qila Rai Pithora.

Humayun’s Tomb is a predecessor to the famous Taj Mahal. Constructed for the Mughal emperor in the mid-16th century by Haji Begum, Humayun’s Persian-born wife, the tomb marries Persian and Mughal elements.

The marble and red-sandstone structure, known also as the ‘Friday Mosque, was Shah Jahan’s final architectural triumph, built between 1644 and 1658. There are two minarets standing 40m high, one of which can be climbed for amazing views.

Visit the Temple of the Sikh, Gurudwara. You can watch (and join if you like) the langar, and the voluntary group cooking and feeding program at the Gurudwara.

Enjoy a Pedicab ride around Chandni Chowk (old shopping street), Digamber Jain Temple, Sisganj Gurudwara, Gali Paranthewali, Khari Baoli (reputed to be Asia’s biggest spice market), Kinari Bazaar (wedding market), Dariba Kalan (the Jewelers lane) and Churiwalli Galli (lane of bangle sellers).

Raj Ghat is a memorial dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi. On the banks of the Yamuna River, this peaceful, very well maintained park contains a simple black-marble platform marking the spot where Mahatma Gandhi was cremated following his assassination in 1948.

A Lotus flower, with 27 delicate-looking white-marble petals. The temple was created to bring faiths together; visitors are invited to pray or meditate silently according to their own beliefs. This architectural masterpiece was designed by Iranian-Canadian architect Fariborz Sahba in 1986. It is closed on MONDAYS.

The President’s Palace or popularly known as Rashtrapati Bhavan (President’s Estate) was formerly home to the British Viceroy, the President’s House has 340 rooms. It is reminiscent of the richest excesses of India’s colonial history.

India Gate, the imposing 42m-high stone memorial arch was designed by Lutyens in 1921. It pays tribute to around 90,000 Indian Army soldiers who died in WWI, the Northwest Frontier operations, and the 1919 Anglo-Afghan War.

Red Fort, a symbol of Mughal power was founded by Emperor Shah Jahan and surrounded by a magnificent 18m-high wall, this fort took 10 years to construct (1638–48). Rumored to have had the decapitated bodies of prisoners built into the foundations for luck.
