Perfect afternoon - Perfect afternoon in Old Delhi! Rahis was right on time meeting me at my hotel. He was informative and showed me the great market areas. Then a late lunch of butter chicken was delicious. Thank you for taking care of me during my short stay in Delhi

Choose R.K. For Your Tour of “Old” New Delhi - My wife and I toured the “Old City” of New Delhi, after a direct pick up from IGI Airport. Our arrival was about 3:00pm, with RK meeting us at the Airport and giving us a recommendation to tour the Old City rather than going to our hotel and then touring the city in the early evening. We went with his recommendation and we’re glad that we did - traffic was extremely heavy and saved a lot of time with his advice. We received highlights of the route along the way, passing many national landmarks, and government sites. We parked in a secure, guarded location, so our luggage was safe, and then proceeded on our walking and Tuk tuk tour. RK’s advice on local food that can be sampled by tourists like us was appreciated - we had no problems enjoying baked goods, teas, and other goodies along the way. The visit included stops at multiple historic, architectural, and religious sites, along with an acclaimed local jeweler and spice vendor. Our timing was perfect as the afternoon turned to early evening to see the changes from day to evening activities in the old city. Our one mistake was that we didn’t stay (as recommended) through dinner (to avoid rush hour) so our travel back to our hotel was in VERY heavy traffic. RK was great through the whole experience and we’re very grateful! Happy Travels to all!

100% recommended tour - I took the tour with Rahis and I recommend it 100%, it is very complete, you have a little bit of everything; religious temples, markets in old Delhi, street food and even craft beers! If you have little time in Delhi, it is the best option to cover as much as possible in the shortest time possible.
