Just go ahead and book it now! - Our Old Delhi food tour with JD was the highlight of our trip to Delhi. JD is a knowledgeable local guide who has a taste for the history, culture and food of Delhi. JD makes Old Delhi accessible, and introduced us to new cultural experiences including rolling chapatis in a Skih Gudwara, exploring Delhi's oldest Jain temple, and experiencing the sights and smells of Delhi spice market. The food was amazing Chole, Samosas, Lassi, all the good stuff, but the guide may have been even better. JD was such a great host we hired him for a photography tour of Lodi street art.

Best way to discover Old Delhi - Today is the second time we have booked an activity with JD – and what should we say: We are absolutely thrilled again! Some time ago we already took part in his Indian cooking class, which already convinced us at the time. Today we did a tour of Old Delhi with him – and it was just great. JD took us to places we probably never would have dared to go on our own. We visited a wide variety of temples and religious sites and learned an incredible amount of exciting background knowledge. You immediately notice how much heart and knowledge he brings. Another highlight was the fantastic food tour. We were able to taste numerous traditional dishes – without any concerns about hygiene or quality. JD knows exactly where to eat safely and authentically. This combination of culture, history and cuisine was just perfect. In just two and a half hours, we learned and experienced as much about Delhi as we could not have done on our own in several days – especially in places not found in any classic guidebook. Highly recommended! We would send any of our friends to JD right away. It really couldn't have been better.

Food tour old Dehli - This tour was amazing! I never would’ve explored old Dehli on my own especially because I didn’t know where to go. It was like having a best friend that lives in Dehli showing you their town. I love that I got to try street food without wondering if I was gonna get sick. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that wants to have an authentic experience while learning some history, seeing some religious temples, and eating some amazing foods! JD is a chef himself so he knows food and hygiene. and he speaks great English and knows a lot about the city he loves.! I can’t recommend this more.

If I could recommend one tour in Delhi it would be this one! - This was probably the most unique and fun tour I have ever done. Jd was genuinely one of the nicest most knowledgeable guides. The tour felt like a local friend taking us to all of his favorite spots with some great hidden gems. It would be hard to find a guide in the Delhi area with such extensive knowledge and background for the price.

The best Old Delhi tour you can find - An incredibly good tour guide, very friendly, open-minded and respectful. It was wonderful to be so close to everything, to be able to participate in the hustle and bustle of the market as well as to soak up the tranquillity of the places of worship. We even visited the commercial kitchen and helped to prepare flatbread and shape loaves of bread. What an experience! We tried incredibly good street food and, thanks to our knowledgeable guide, we could be sure that we wouldn't upset our stomachs. Sensitive as he is, he also let us slowly approach the spicy food and tailored it to us in some cases. Great! He also had a keen eye for beautiful photo opportunities, both tourist must-haves and inspiring places of abstract beauty. Anyone visiting Delhi should take this tour!"

Best experience in Old Delhi - JD guided us through Old Delhi and he was absolutely incredible. The food was amazing, and the whole experience felt truly special. JD is funny, is so knowledgeable, and genuinely kind — he brought the city to life and made the tour unforgettable. I couldn’t recommend him more.

Culinary and Cultural Teeat - JD was fantastic, very knowledgeable and fun. This tour proved to be a great introduction to Delhi on our first day there. We joined in the volunteers in making roti at the kitchen where 15,000 free meals are served every day, saw the spice market and had some great tastings including fresh baked cookies (so yummy dipped in the offered Chai tea), lassis, curries, and samosas. During the tour JD was a wealth of information, and guided us safely through the busy markets and along the streets in an easy non rushed manner. Definitely recommend.

Great way for solo female travellers to explore Old Delhi - I am a solo female traveller who only had one day in Delhi and I am SO glad I picked this tour. JD was wonderful, I cannot recommend him enough. As a female traveller, I was super safe and comfortable the entire time. I was able to see places I never would’ve seen on my own, from tiny laneways packed with shops, to multiple places of worship. We got to try loads of delicious street food too. The places we went gave me a great taste of the culture and life in Delhi. JD has a wealth of knowledge, was able to answer every question with depth and ease. He’s also a really nice guy and made us laugh. The tour was never dry or boring despite being so informative. My only regret is I’m not able to do another tour with JD. In summary, book this tour!!

Would highly recommend - Loved this tour so much. It was such a great way to experience Old Delhi in a short amount of time without it feeling rushed. We visited temples from three different religions, which was really interesting, and the background Jd gave made everything easy to understand and genuinely meaningful. The food was incredible – every stop was delicious and felt like a proper local experience. Exploring Old Delhi can feel overwhelming, but having Jd guide us made it feel easy, comfortable and really well organised. We got a true feel for Indian culture and Old Delhi, which is exactly what we wanted. Jd was also hilarious and made the whole experience even better. It’s one of those tours we’ll genuinely remember for a long time. If you’re short on time but want an authentic experience, I’d highly recommend booking this tour with Jd
